Koala

G’day old mate! I’m Blinky Bill - I bet you’ve heard of me.
I live here in Australia, in a eucalyptus tree.
I’ve got lots of special friends,
And I’m really glad to say,
They come around to play with me,
Every single day.
I’m Blinky Bill.
My whole life’s a thrill.
I do exactly what I like -
I’m Blinky Bill
