Feral
Verse 1
Moving with stealth
Depth of the night
A disposition to kill
Without a fight
The ultimate hunter
It stalks its prey
Attacking our wildlife
Ending its days
Twenty million strong
It out numbers people
Two weeks in the bush
It is feral
Chorus
Night parrot …..........gone
Bilbys ….............. critical
Orange bellies …............ nearly gone
Potoroos ….................... critical
And the list …...................goes on
Verse 2
Lizards and birds
It shows no favour
Small mammals
It seems to savior
An apex predator
Its skills unmatched
Any native creature
Is soon dispatched
Backyards no haven
For native fauna
The feline menace
Has no borders
Chorus
Paradise parrot …............. gone
Numbat …............. critical
Pygmy possum …........nearly gone
Northern quoll …................... critical
And the list ….................... goes on
Verse 3
Governments have a solution
In a biological form
Similar to rabbits
That were so scorned
Future of the cat
Would be certainly doomed
Eradicate the scourge
And all its ruin
Governments sit on their hands
Solution not near
With their gutless attitude
Wildlife lives in fear
Chorus
Bettong ….................... critical
Western ground parrot …........ gone
20 mammal species …........... gone
20 million killed …..............per night
And the list.................. goes on
