Plot
Fuzzy-Wuzzy is an aborigine, hunting kangaroos while riding an ostrich. He spots one, working out on a punching bag; after a bit of to and fro, he lands in the roo's pouch. The animal isn't too bright, and tries to evict the hunter with a stick of dynamite, which turns the kangaroo into a lot of tiny roos; they jump into the pouch and reassemble. The kangaroo pulls up the ostrich's head, which was buried in the sand; he cuts it off, and it becomes a firehose in his face. The hunter crosses a stream on his ostrich, which is eaten by a crocodile (a bit of violence, and the ostrich is freed). Finally, a flurry of boomerangs is repulsed by the kangaroo and they shave off Fuzzy Wuzzy's hair; after the hunter suggests the kangaroo "pick on someone his own size" they start shrinking, until they are the size of bugs and the ostrich eats both of them.

Plot
The audience enters Porky's movie theater, with a collection of quick gags: A firefly acting as usher, a kangaroo taking tickets and putting the stubs in her pouch, a chicken buying child tickets for her eggs. A skunk tries to buy a ticket, costing a nickel, but he only has one scent. He looks for a way to sneak in. Meanwhile, Porky introduces the show: a collection of cartoons, drawn as stick figures. At the end, the audience is all gone because the skunk managed to sneak in. Porky's cartoons include: Circus Parade, Choo-Choo Train, Soldiers (Marchin), Horse Race, and Dances (hula, Mexican hat, and ballet). All accompanied by a self-parody musical score.

Colin Friels (born 25 September 1952) is a Scottish-born Australian actor.
Friels was born in Kilwinning, Ayrshire, Scotland. His mother was a mill worker and his father a joiner. He lived in Kilbirnie until 1963, when his family moved to Australia, arriving in Darwin, Northern Territory before settling in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton. He worked as a bricklayer's labourer before studying at the prestigious National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), and graduated from there in 1976, with actors such as Linden Wilkinson and Michael Siberry.
Friels career began with work mostly in theatre and television. In 1980 Friels was a presenter on the long-running children's series Play School. His first film role was in the unreleased Prisoners (1981), starring with Tatum O'Neal. The film was allegedly so bad that Tatum's father Ryan O'Neal purchased the rights to the film to prevent it from ever screening.[citation needed] His first actual appearance in film was in Monkey Grip (1982), an adaptation of a novel by Helen Garner, where he starred alongside Noni Hazlehurst.
There's an old Austrailian stockman lying dying

Don't pay no mind to it
Oh let it blow
Break you up inside
If you don't let it go
Jeez what are you like honey
I don't know
Recommended by my bank
And everybody in the tank
First of all I'd like to thank
This might take a while honey
Hey don't blink
Missing by a mile now we're
Here on the brink
Not a day goes by honey
I don't think
I could be your volunteer
We'll make the whole thing disappear
Saddle up we're outta here
You could be my olive branch
Lift me up above the stench
Walk me through the avalanche
Honey won't you be my flood
Nothing ever comes out good
Trouble in the neighbourhood
Conversations gone askew
And how do you make it fell like new
Kookaburra kangaroo
Will you won't you be my leach
Take it all and when I screech
Leave it there just outta reach
Take me to that burning bush
Give me something I can't crush
Lead me out into the hush
So far behind
So far behind
So far behind
I first saw you
You had on blue jeans
Your eyes couldn't hide anything
I saw you breathing, oh
I saw you staring out in space
I next saw you
You was at the party
Thought you was a queen
Oh so flirty
I came against
Didn't say excuse
Knew what I was doing
We looked very fine
'Cause we were leaving
Like Saint Joan
Doing a cool jerk
Oh, I want you
When i first saw you
You had on blue jeans
Your eyes couldn't hide
Anything
I saw you
Breathing, oh
Saw you staring out in space
When i next saw you
You were at the party
Thought you was a queen
Oh, so flirty
I came against them
Didn't say excuse
Knew what i was doing
We looked very fine
As we were leaving
As we were making
What we were making
Saint John
You were a cool jerk
Oh, i want you
There's something going
in the air tonight
and we all know why it is
kids are boppin' around
we're all feeling allright
and we all know why it is
what's the use in stayin'
at the status quo ?
dare to go !
[Chorus:]
Something's flying in the air tonight
something all the kids wanna do
go stagedivin' in the air tonight
dare to go !
I know some bigshots who complain
about the kids who dive
and I don't know why they do it
feel free to dive when we're playin' live
can't see no reason not to do it
what's the use in fighting
in the front now ?
dare to go !
[Chorus]
don't mind your face when you're in the boppin' race
jump off the stage
like a kangaroo in a rage !
I first saw you
You had on blue jeans
Your eyes couldn't hide anything
I saw you breathing, oh
I saw you staring out in space
I next saw you
You was at the party
Thought you was a queen
Oh so flirty
I came against
Didn't say excuse
Knew what I was doing
We looked very fine
'Cause we were leaving
Like Saint Joan
Doing a cool jerk
Oh, I want you
Think that you’re the chosen ones
Heavier than thou
said that you’ll re-write the book
But you’re illiterate so how
Don’t want to hear your attitude
Don’t need to hear your bitch
I wanna see who’s gonna follow
Here today and gone tomorrow
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna
I ain’t gonna be your kangaroo
I ain’t gonna I ain’t gonna
You ain’t gonna put me in your zoo
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna
I ain’t gonna be your kangaroo
Empty vessels make the greatest noise
And boy you’re deafening
Lowest common denominator
Take the money and see you later
Go jump on the bandwagon
You’re headed for a fall
I wanna see who’s gonna swallow
You ain’t gonna see me follow
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna
I ain’t gonna be your kangaroo
I ain’t gonna I ain’t gonna
You ain’t gonna put me in your zoo
I ain’t playing by your rules
Find yourself another fool
And when your ship goes down
No-one will recall a sound
And you’ll be running outta town
Cornholed and potholed
with nowhere to hide
When they’ll look back at you
They’ll just think your brains were fried
Jump upon the gravy train
before it leaves this town
Your 15 minutes almost up time
You were going down
I wanna see who’s gonna follow
Tattooed now and gone tomorrow
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna
I ain’t gonna be your kangaroo
I ain’t gonna I ain’t gonna
You ain’t gonna put me in your zoo
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna
I ain’t gonna be your kangaroo
I don’t wanna I don’t wanna
I first saw you.
You had on blue jeans.
Your eyes couldn't hide anything.
I saw you breathing.
And I saw you staring out in space.
I next saw you, you was at a party.
Though you was a queen, oh so flirty.
I cam against.
Didn't say excuse.
You knew what I was doing.
We looked very fine 'cause we were leaving.
Like Saint Joan, doing a cool, cool, jerk.
Oh I want you, Oh I want you...
kangaroo, i'm betting on the offchance, on the offtrack
you left the outback
my kangaroo
kangaroo, jack rabbit in the bushwhack
decided to give you your bounce back
my kangaroo
kangaroo, it ain't so hard for you
to bounce in my back yard
you can sail the ocean blue
my kangaroo
kangaroo, you mean more to me
than just another wannabe wallaby
my kangaroo

they say your country was settled by crooks
but it's okay my kangaroo
kangaroo, it ain't so hard for you
to bounce in my back yard
