The Holly and the Ivy (Feral Pig and Cane Toad)
The holly and the ivy
if they come up in your yard
then go and get the Roundup
and hit the mongrels hard
The feral pig and the cane toad
have a right to exist
but they don't fit our ecology
and make awful Christmas gifts
The rabbit is a dreadful pest
and introduced of course
but it makes a bonzer Christmas dish
with gravy and plum sauce
The privet and the lantana
are an absolute eyesore
and whoever introduced them
has a lot to answer for
The banksia and bottlebrush
koala and emu
they are honest Aussie Diggers
they're the only ones true blue
The holly and the ivy
if they come up in your yard
then go and get the Roundup
and hit the mongrels hard
if they come up in your yard
then go and get the Roundup
and hit the mongrels hard
The feral pig and the cane toad
have a right to exist
but they don't fit our ecology
and make awful Christmas gifts
The rabbit is a dreadful pest
and introduced of course
but it makes a bonzer Christmas dish
with gravy and plum sauce
The privet and the lantana
are an absolute eyesore
and whoever introduced them
has a lot to answer for
The banksia and bottlebrush
koala and emu
they are honest Aussie Diggers
they're the only ones true blue
The holly and the ivy
if they come up in your yard
then go and get the Roundup
and hit the mongrels hard
