The Platypus Walk is a song and a dance tied in to the 2012 Platypus Day promotion. It was released on March 3, 2012, in a music video, but a promo with the song had been airing since February 8, on Disney Channel and Disney XD.
Lyrics
Walk the platypus walk,
Talk the platypus talk. [Perry chatters]
Walk the platypus walk,
Talk the platypus talk. [Perry chatters]
Walk the platypus walk,
Talk the platypus talk.
If you're web-footed, duckbilled and semi-aquatic,
If you're soft, cool, fuzzy and charismatic,
Disappear by day kinda enigmatic
Then you just might be a plata-fanatic.
(Walk the platypus walk)
You can be a platypus who doesn't do much
Or put on your fedora and come through in the clutch
Get yourself a mission, fire up your jetpack
Keep your duckbill forward and your beaver tail back.
Walk the platypus walk, [Perry chatters]
Talk the platypus talk.
Walk the platypus walk,
Keep your duckbill forward and your beaver tail back!
First Lady Michelle Obama did the Platypus Dance with a collection of Disney Channel stars and the Agent P costumed character during a rally supporting Disney's Health and Fitness program on February 11, 2012 at Champion Stadium in the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex at Walt Disney World.
A Flash Mob made up of cast members from Phineas and Ferb: The Best LIVE Tour Ever! invaded Broward County, Florida by doing the dance on March 2nd, 2012 in advance of their shows at BankAtlantic Center.
