Little Bunny Foo Foo
Traditional
Lyrics:
Have you ever heard the story of Little Bunny Foo Foo?
He was a very naughty rabbit
But he learned his lesson
Little Bunny Foo Foo’s hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping ‘em on the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said:
Little Bunny Foo Foo
I don’t want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
I’ll give you 3 more chances and if you won’t listen, I’ll turn you into a goon
Do you know what a goon looks like? Make the silliest face you can, that is what a goon looks like
Little Bunny Foo Foo’s hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping ‘em on the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said
Little Bunny Foo Foo I don’t want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
I’ll give you 2 more chances and if you won’t
listen, I’ll turn you into a goon
But the next day…little Bunny Foo Foo’s
hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping ‘em on
the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said
Little Bunny Foo Foo I don’t want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
I’ll give you 1 more chance and if you won’t listen, I’ll turn you into a goon like I said
Do you think he listened?
Little Bunny Foo Foo’s hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping ‘em on the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said
Little Bunny Foo Foo I don’t like your attitude scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
You have no more chances, you wouldn’t listen…now poof, you’re a goon.
And now kids, it’s the crazy goon music
Everyone up and dance like a goon
And the moral of this story is hare today, goon tomorrow.
Activities:
Story song: A Cappella. This is a fun story and song combined.
1st part: Hold 2 fingers up like bunny ears and bounce them up and down to the beat for the first line. Then pretend to scoop up field mice, and pat a flat hand on the other hand as if bopping them on the head.
As the good fairy comes down, hold your hands up and “sprinkle” your fingers down.
2nd part: Hold 2 fingers up like bunny ears and bounce them up and down to the beat for the first half of the first line. For “I don’t want to see you,” wave a finger back and forth. Then pretend to scoop up field mice, and pat a flat hand on the other hand as if bopping them on the head.
“I’ll give you ___” – hold up the number of fingers for each verse to correspond with how many chances she’ll give. “And if you won’t listen” – point a finger towards the class. “I’ll turn you into
a goon” – wave your hands and shake your face like an ugly, funny monster.
