Oh, No Mister Possum!

Who’s that climbing up my tree?
Who’s that eating my leaves?
Who’s that gobbling on berries?
Come down, come down, please!
It’s something with a tail
It’s long and busy too
It’s a very greedy rascal
Come down, come down, you!
Oh, mister possum! No no no no!
Don’t eat my trees, don’t eat my leaves
Oh, mister possum! No no no no!
Don’t eat my trees, I beg you please
Possum
Don Spencer is an Australia children’s songwriter and guitarist and sings the children song titled, Possum, which amusingly tells the story of a possum that visits at night. Kids will love to sing along with their favourite possum puppet or stuffed animal and perform the catchy possum tune.
Who taught the possum how to climb?
It’s puzzled me for a long, long time
Possums wild, possums free
But he likes to visit me
Possum, possum, watch him go
How he does it I don’t know
He can run right up a tree
And defy the laws of gravity
I see him in the back porch light
He comes to visit me at night
So I give him his favourite treat
The biscuits that he loves to eat
Possum, possum, watch him go
How he does it I don’t know
He can run right up a tree
And defy the laws of gravity
I can hear him now and then
Running ‘cross the roof again
Rattling on the garbage tin
There’s no better friend than him
Possum, possum, watch him go
How he does it I don’t know
He can run right up a tree
And defy the laws of gravity
Opossums Are Awesome
Opossums Are Awesome is a fun children’s song about possums by Kristina Ritschard and Carson Cole.
You know them possums? Nastiest critter around
Now hold on, let me tell you somethin’
Possums are awesome
Possums are awesome
Possums are very awesome
I like how they eat lots of trash
I like how cars make them into smash
I like how they smell really bad
Possums don’t make me sad (no way!)
I like how they have beady eyes
I like how they attract lots of flies
I like how they have silky fur
Sometimes they even pur
I like how they hang upside down
I like how they never seem to frown
I like how they play in the dirt
I want a possum shirt
