Keith Johnson - The Kune Kune Piggy

2014-06-11 7

The Kune Kune is a sort of Maori Pig
Whose face is dewlapped with a whiskery bib
These wattles, tassels or piri piri
Make them look both cute and silly.

Their name in Maori means fat and round
So much so, they seem to lard the ground
And when they grunt they make you laugh -
And look for slops to fill their trough.

Pot-bellied, friendly hairy creatures
They beg you: 'Mrs - kindly treat us! '
So save the peelings, bread and cold spaghetti
And drop them off ere you forgettey.

[Pronounced 'Coonie Coonie']
