The Bunyip Song Lyrics

They say that if you're camping by a billabong at night

To look out for those bunyips 'cause they'll scare you out of sight

They're supposed to be ferocious with a breath as cold as ice

But I know lots of bunyips and they're really very nice

There's a bunyip sleeps on the end of my bed

He's got four eyes and a big double head

He gets annoyed and his faces turn red

But he keeps all the flies away

There's another one sleeps at the end of my room

With feet like a frog and hair like a broom

He drinks dishwater and my mum's perfume

But he keeps all the flies away

I'm not scared, scared of bunyips

They're not scared of me

If you meet a real live bunyip

Ask him home for tea

There's a bunyip sleeps on the bathroom floor

And he's got big toes and a long sharp claw

He scares the dogs with his bunyip's roar

But he keeps all the flies away

People say if bunyips meet ya

All they'll want to do is eat ya

Don't believe what people say

Bunyips don't behave that way

There's a bunyip sleeps in the fire place

And he walks around with a smile on his face

He hides his teeth in a pillow case

But he keeps all the flies away

There's a bunyip sleeps in a crack in the wall

He's not very wide but he's very very tall

He can roll himself up and bounce like a ball

But he keeps all the flies away

So don't be scared of bunyips

They're not scared of you

If you meet a real live bunyip

Ask him home for breakfast too

There's a bunyip sleeps in my desk at school

And he wears sunglasses 'cause he thinks he's cool

Everywhere he writes "Bunyips Rule"

But he keeps all the flies away

He keeps all the flies away
