There may be dozens of songs that include references to the platypus but the one I know is by the great Tom Lehrer, singing about the sad story of Oedipus. The last verse is:
Or you may find yourself with a quite complex, complex
And you may end up like Oedipus -
I’d rather marry a duck-billed platypus -
Than end up like old Oedipus Rex.
