We went to a place where the colours were weird,
There were strange trees and shrubs and a bird with a beard.
This bird, called the Curved About Snoozle has a very long snout,
And it couldn't find Buzzalugs in the blue grass without.





The plains of the land were enormous and vast,
except for the Purple-leafed Pop-Bottom trees that we passed.
They are made from a stuff that looks like pink candy,
But there's not many left 'cause their leaves are quite handy,
For making cool hats, fluffletop shoes and  grass skirts,
And flowery, funky summertime shirts.





We walked for a week and a half in the sun,
We started by walking but then we did run.
Through the pink grassy hills that the Fudgie Bird dreads,
With the leaves of the Waffle Bush shading our heads.





We saw a Snotty Top bird in an Uppalot tree,
And asked him what there was in this new land to see.
"I don't know... don't go out much," the little bird said
"I'm too embarrassed by the green stuff that grows on my head".





We saw Pink Snapping Squirtle Turtles, flocking together,
All discussing in earnest the state of the weather.
We tried to talk to them, next to the water,
But they were quite rude. "We'll squirt you, we oughta".





We were showered all over by Turtle rain drops,
Then we headed towards the Wangalong crops.
We were hungry by then and feeling a bit pasty,
And we'd heard that the Wangalong tops were quite tasty.
We walked a bit longer and climbed up a hill,
Then we saw them there... yummy... so we ate our fill.





Now we met a Half-Footed, Long-Necked Swimmalong bird,
Who was really quite friendly, from what we had heard.
The rumours were true, about this bird that was blue,
We interrupted her lunch of Red-slimy Goo,
She wasn't perturbed, in fact she was nice,
She gave us directions and sang for us twice.





"Just go up the road past the Wave-to-me Trees,
But watch out for the Grumple Ducks, they like to eat knees.
And come back for a visit when you want some more fun,"
So we set off down the path at a pace like a run.
The Wave-to-me Trees were the Windy Up kind,
And we stopped for a rest, in the shade, down behind





Then the Grumple Ducks came, with their blue beaks and feet,
And despite their bad nature they looked very sweet.
But that was not true, they chased us for miles,
With their curvy-down necks and their vexatious smiles.





We ran quickly away from those violet pests
Past the Marshmallow Fluffies lying down on their nests.
"Oi, you bullies should leave those poor kiddies alone,"
They said. "You big meanies should really go home.
Run away little kiddies and run very fast,
You'll be right when the Fuzzle Fern trees you are past."




Then we saw our salvation ahead of us there,
The tops of the Fuzzle Fern trees... Did the Grumple Ducks dare
To follow us through to the land of Bling Bling?
Which was ruled by the Crown-Headed Ruby-Caped king.





The Ruby-Caped king, with his always-on crown,
Saw the mean Grumple Ducks chasing us, down on the ground.
"Stop taunting these children by chasing their knees,
You're acting like gooses, so go away, please."
Said the king with a voice that was regal and austere.
"Just leave them alone, you Grumple Ducks there."





They went back to the place from where they had come,
The king said, "I'm having some ice-cream. Would you like some?
 Despite his appearance he wasn't a smarty,
He knew how to boogie and threw a great party.





Our journey was over, we had to go home.
We hope you've enjoyed our frivolous tome.
