Don't you think it looks peculiar,
Don't you think it looks peculiar,
Don't you think it looks peculiar,
And we'll sing another verse

Next! Verse! Same as the first!
A little bit louder and a little bit worse!

Climbing up the mountain when the weather wasn't nice
The atmosphere had frozen into great big chunks of ice
We couldn't find the summit till the leader gave a cry
Oh, gorblimey we're a thousand feet too high!

Don't you think it looks peculiar,
Don't you think it looks peculiar,
Don't you think it looks peculiar,
We're a thousand feet too high!


Up on the mountains, where I like to be,
With a little ukulele just to keep me company

Singing ro-tiddly-o, Ro-tiddly-o,
Ro-tiddly-o, Tow-tow-tow-tow!

Can't find the track no matter where I gaze,
I've been going round in circles for days, and days, and days!

Singing ro-tiddly-o, Ro-tiddly-o,
Ro-tiddly-o, Tow-tow-tow-tow!

Tucker all gone, that's why you find me here,
Chewing at the snowgrass in amongst the deer,

Singing ro-tiddly-o, Ro-tiddly-o,
Ro-tiddly-o, Tow-tow-tow-tow!
