[Intro]
N.C.
In Australia, Christmas comes in the middle of a very hot summer
So when Santa Claus delivers his presents
He's not taken around by reindeer because
They can't stand the terrible heat
He's taken around by six big, white, old man kangaroos
Called the six white boomers

Early on one C

hristmas day
           
A joey kangaro

o

Was far from h

ome and lost
            
In a great, bi

  
g zoo

Mommy.... Wher

e's my mommy?

They've taken 

her away
N.C.
We'll help you find your mommy, son
