about

It was a serious exercise in science: okay, what don't we know about echidnas? The answers were great and the composing even better. Well done children!

lyrics

Do Echidnas Come Out In The Rain
from “Lake Songs”
with children from Bairnsdale 754 PS


Do echidnas come out in the wet
Or like the ants that they eat
Are they scared of the rain
These are the thoughts that rattle my brain
Do echidnas come out in the rain

Do echidnas crawl on mother's back
Or are their little soft feet
Way too delicate, way too petite
These things I don't know are causing me pain
Do echidnas come out in the rain

Do echidnas have a place that they keep
Or where they stop, is that where they sleep
Tell me how do they drink
These are the questions that hurt when I think
Do echidnas come out in the rain

Do echidnas ever have friends
Or are they always alone
With that many prickles do you ever get known
If you've got answers, oh please explain
Do echidnas come out in the rain

Do echidnas come out in the rain
Or like the ants that they eat
Are they scared of the wet
With that many quills I'd write it down so I couldn't forget
Do echidnas come out in the wet
