One of my favorite songs written around a campfire about the goofiest, strangest animal on the planet: the opossum.

lyrics

You know them possums? Nastiest critter around
Now hold on, let me tell you somethin'

Chorus:
Possums are awesome
Possums are awesome
Possums are very awesome

I like how they eat lots of trash
I like how cars make them into smash
I like how they smell really bad
Possums don't make me sad (no way!)

Chorus

I like how they have beady eyes
I like how they attract lots of flies
I like how they have silky fur
Sometimes they even pur

Chorus

I like how they hang upside down
I like how they never seem to frown
I like how they play in the dirt
I want a possum shirt

Chorus

Alt Chorus:
Jesus is awesome
Jesus is awesome
Jesus is very awesome

I like how He made the whole earth
He sees every time the possums give birth
I like how He makes funny things
It makes me want to sing

Alt Chorus

Chorus

Well shoot done Beau, possums really are awesome
