Claudia Robin Gunn - We Are the Platypus
Poisonous talons, swim with our eyes closed
Electromagnetic senses in our nose
Burrows in the river banks, two layers of fur
Bill like a duck, swim like a fish
Do you know who we are?
Semi aquatic egg laying mammals
Furry like an otter, paddle shaped tail
We only eat meat not plants
Cos we’re carnivores
Watch out beetles and swimming snails
Cicadas and shrimp and tadpoles tails
We are the platypus
We are not a curiosity
We are just the only living ones of our kind
We’re quite mysterious
We’re platypus
Mammals that lay eggs are quite unusual
Platypus babies we are called puggles
Underneath the water our fur can glow
Why on earth this happens - no one knows
We are the platypus
We are not a curiosity
We are just the only living ones of our kind
We’re quite mysterious
We’re platypus
(Ooh)
We are the platypus (ooh)
We are not a curiosity (ooh)
We are just the only living ones of our kind
(ooh)
We’re quite mysterious
We are the platypus (ooh)
We are the platypus (ooh)
We are the platypus
We’re quite mysterious
