THE BLUE KANGAROO!
Curtain Up ~ A Woods Scene ~ Lights Up Slowly
(CHILDREN’S CHORUS)
An old man, walks his dog
Trips with him on a fallen log
Woof woof woof, woof woof woof
E're remembered they will be.
An old man, walks his dog
Walks with him through the rain and fog
Woof woof woof, woof woof woof
Ne’re remembered they will be.
See how the beautiful rain does fall
Curative, curative, health to all
Rivers in the desert, streams in the wood
Flowing gently, don’t you wish you could
An old man, walks his dog
Once in the world there's no other thought
Woof woof woof, woof woof woof
E're remembered it will be.
Tripping over a fallen tree
WHAT in the world do you think of me!
Woof woof woof, woof woof woof
E’re remembered you will be.
Bicycles, tricycles, not for woods
Children of the forest only wish they could
But fallen logs, on they trod
Falling on their face they do.
Where does the sun rise?
Where does it fall?
Where does the moon rise?
Where does it all?
Mystery, chance, what do they do?
Fate in a hurry, bringing quite the new
But fallen logs, on they trod
Falling on their face they do
Falling on their face they do
Falling on their face
Falling on their face
Falling on their face
A Blue Kang-a-roo!
(OLD MAN and THE DOG enter ~ and trip over the log)
DOG ~ Well I'm glad we got THAT out of the way!
OLD MAN ~ Looks like it was IN the way to me.
DOG ~ Obstacles, obstacles, they're all over the place!
OLD MAN ~ (they sit on the log) Yup, just gives us a reason not to do nothin'!
DOG ~ I'll buy that! There's a million reasons not to do nothin'.
OLD MAN ~ And we've found several hundred of em already!
DOG ~ (surprised) What if we ever run out?
OLD MAN ~ Run out of what?
DOG ~ Reasons to do nothin'.
OLD MAN ~ (laughs) It'll never happen. Look at us. What are we doin?
DOG ~ Nothin.
OLD MAN ~ See?
DOG ~ We're EXPERTS!
OLD MAN ~ That we are. What should we do next?
DOG ~ Wait a minute. (pulls out the script) Here it is, here it is, I do my song.
(He sings)
I don’t have a daughter, I don’t have a wife
Its been this way, most all of my life
I don’t have a son, I don’t have a sister
I don’t have a family. Puppies call me Mister
I don’t have a brother, I don’t have a friend
