It's
very,very,funny,
'Cos I know I had
some honey;
'Cos it had a lable
on,
Saying
HUNNY.
And I don't
know where it's got to,
No, I don't know
where it's gone-
Well,it's
funny.
A fly can't bird, but a bird can
fly.
Ask me a riddle and I
reply:
"Cottleston,Cottleston,
Cottleston Pie."
Cottleston,
Cottleston, Cottleston Pie,
A fish can't
whistle and neither can I.
Ask me a riddle
and I reply:
"Cottleston, Cottleston,
Cottleston Pie."
Cottleston,
Cottleston, Cottleston Pie,
Why does a
chicken, I don't know why.
Ask me a riddle
and I reply:
"Cottleston, Cottleston,
Cottleston Pie."
OF VERY LITTLE BRAIN
On
Monday, when the sun is hot
I wonder to
myself a lot:
"Now is it true, or is it
not,
"That what is which and which is
what?"
On Tuesday, when it hails and
snows,
The feeling on me grows and
grows
That hardly anybody knows
If
those are these or these are those
On
Wednesday, when the sky is blue,
And I
have nothing else to do,
I sometimes
wonder if it's true
That who is what and
what is who.
On Thursday, when it
starts to freeze
And hoar-frost twinkles
on the trees,
How very readily one
sees
That these are whose-but whose are
these?
On Friday___
Sing Ho! for the life
of a Bear!
Sing Ho! for the life of a
Bear!
I don't much mind if it rains or
snows,
'Cos I've got a lot of honey on my
nice
new nose,
I don't much care if it
snows or thaws,
'Cos I've got a lot of
honey on my nice
clean paws!
Sing Ho!
for a Bear!
Sing
Ho! for a Pooh!
And I'll have a little
something in an hour
or two!
So off they went to
discover the Pole. And as
they walked,
they chattered to each other of this
and
that, all except Pooh, who was making up
a
song.
"This is the first verse," he
said to Piglet, when he
was ready with
it.
"First verse of what?"
"My
song."
"What song?"
"This
one."
"Which one?"
"Well, if you
listen, Piglet, you'll hear it."
"How do
you know I'm not listening?"
Pooh couldn't
answer that one, so he began to
sing.
They all went off to discover
the Pole,
Owl and Piglet and Rabbit and
all;
It's the Thing you Discover, as I've
been tole
By Owl and Piglt and Rabbit and
all.
Eeyore, Christopher Robin and
Pooh
And Rabbit's relations all went
too---
And where the Pole was none of them
knew....
Sing Hey! for Owl and Rabbit and
all!
Journey's
End
going, Christoper
Robin?
"Just up to the top of the
hill,
Upping and upping until
I am
right on the top of the hill,"
Said
Christopher Robin.
Christopher,
Christopher, why are you
going,
Christopher
Robin?
There's nothing to see, so
when
You've got to the top, what
then?
"Just down to the bottom
again,"
Said Christopher
Robin.
