Nose to nose with a hungry stoat / I can feel the fear constrict my throat
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom / Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
I’m a whio, blue duck to some / I love running rapids in the rain and the sun
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom / Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
But I’m nose to nose with a sharp-toothed stoat / I can feel the fear constrict my throat
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom / Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
I have three ducklings swimming happy and free / I’d love them to grow up just like me
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom / Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
But I’m nose to nose with a hungry stoat / I can feel the fear constrict my throat
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom, Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
You need to eat I get that I do, But please don’t make any whio stew
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom, Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
You know the sandflies are tasty, as tasty as can be & many many sandflies make a calorie
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom, Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
And…. the… eggs are delicious in the DOC stoat trap / And some come complete with a rat-a-tat-tat!
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom, Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
My name is whio and I’ve lived here long, This is my land and it is my song
Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom, Boom di di boom boom boom boom boom
That's about the size of it
