Rolf Harris', "Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport"
The Lyrics:
Tan me hide when I'm dead, Fred

Rolf Harris', "Tie My Kangaroo Down, Sport!"
The Lyrics:
So we tanned his hide when he died, Clyde, and that's it hanging on the shed.
Why:
This is a simple, fun, and bouncy Australian song, but it is supposed to be sung by a dying man who is telling his "mates" what to do with his body and possessions after he passes away.
