To what extent do you agree with this?

Question

BE KIND to your webbed footed friends,
for a duck may be somebody's mother,
all alone in the swamp,
where it's always cold and damp.
You may think that this is the end,
but to tell you the truth I'm a liar.
We'll sing this through once again,
but this time we'll sing a little higher.
repeat ad infinitum.

How true is it??

whats so hard to understand? its about being kind to ducks!

Answer 1

LMAO! It's very true. I used to sing this when I was 6 years old. I taught it to my dad and he loved it - he was still singing it when I was 20! (He did stop occasionally over the 14 year interim.)

Edit: For the confused - there really isn't much to understand, it's just a daft kids song; the first 4 lines are the important ones, the last bit makes little sense to man, beast, woman, or duck.

Answer 2

I'll be chucking bread for the little beggars tomorrow. Cheers!


By the way, it is also possible to have web footed friends in East Anglia, but that is just a product of in-breeding.

Answer 3

Well I agree with the first 3 lines. I got lost a little after that.

Answer 4

I dont have any web-footed freinds-But after reading the words to the song, I wanna go out and get some :-)

Answer 5

I'm sorry I don't understand it at all but maybe I'm just not on the same wavelength. It sounds like a nonsense poem to me but if its a riddle, its gone way past me. A bit like my bed time really. Night.

Answer 6

Very true

Answer 7

Yep, it's true. Great song from schooldays!

Answer 8

Very true.

Answer 9

I can't sing, i need to be drunk, to make a fool, of myself.

Answer 10

i really like this and think it is truly true
