[Verse]

Pete the platypus lays an egg at dawn

Duck bill shining while the day's coming on

Beaver tail slaps as rivers run free

Otter-footed wanderer wild as can be

[Verse 2]

Born in the land where the gum trees sway

Under southern stars at the break of day

Lap at the waters where secrets lie

Pete swims strong beneath the sapphire sky

[Chorus]

Oh Pete the platypus so strange so true

National mascot in brown and blue

Waddle through the reeds yeah make a splash

With every egg laid you keep the world abash

[Verse 3]

Creek life hums where Pete makes his home

In the tangled roots where critters roam

Snout sniffing tales that fish have spun

Outback storyteller kissed by the sun

[Bridge]

Whiskers wiggle tales of ancient lore

Swimming deep where the rivers roar

Your webbed feet whisper secrets untold

Pete the platypus wild and bold

[Chorus]

Oh Pete the platypus so strange so true

National mascot in brown and blue

Waddle through the reeds yeah make a splash

With every egg laid you keep the world abash

[Bridge]

Whiskers wiggle tales of ancient lore

Swimming deep where the rivers roar

Your webbed feet whisper secrets untold

Pete the platypus wild and bold

[Chorus]

Oh Pete the platypus so strange so true

National mascot in brown and blue

Waddle through the reeds yeah make a splash

With every egg laid you keep the world abash
