A KOOKOO Bird Is A STINGY Bird, And Vice Versa – RB’s Parables

"Kookaburras (genus Dacelo) are terrestrial kingfishers native to Australia and New Guinea. " - Wikiperida

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Merry, merry king of the bush is he
Laugh, Kookaburra! Laugh, Kookaburra!
Gay your life must be

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Eating all the gum drops he can see
Stop, Kookaburra! Stop, Kookaburra!
Leave some there for me

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Counting all the monkeys he can see
Stop, Kookaburra! Stop, Kookaburra!
That’s not a monkey that’s me

Kookaburra sits on a rusty nail
Gets a boo-boo in his tail
Cry, Kookaburra! Cry, kookaburra!
Oh how life can be

“Kookaburra” (also known by its first line: “Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree”) is a popular Australian nursery rhyme and round about the Kookaburra (an Australian Kingfisher), written by Marion Sinclair (c1895–1988).[1]

 

Moral Of The Story-

Let’s “bink outside the thox” for this last Friday of February 2012 for those who wish to follow.

I actually heard this song a while back and thought back to hearing it often in elementary school as I child, and when I tuned in to the lyrics, I recalled the fact that even as a child, I thought that this song was about a weird bird as the lyrics indicate now at somewhat of a grown up phase in life seeing that this Kookabura is described as a stingy, gay lifestyle having, delusional, cry baby of a bird that just sits in gum trees for a living.

Good communication skills involve both clear speaking and clear listening, both of which can and should be used to offer a different perspective to consider.
