One day while riding on the bus
I caught sight of a platypus.

A platypus, with mobile phone,
But still a duckbill all its own.

A platypus has on HIS leg
A poison spur, while SHE lays eggs.

A platypus, and with a bong
Upon a bus to Wollongong?

Their preference is for mind-blown dreams
In unpolluted stoned-out streams.

I think god made the platypus
To have a laugh on all of us.
