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 Fooās hoppinā through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping āem on the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said:
Little Bunny Foo Foo
I donāt want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
Iāll give you 3 more chances and if you wonāt listen, Iāll 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 Fooās hoppinā through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping āem on the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said
Little Bunny Foo Foo I donāt want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
Iāll give you 2 more chances and if you wonāt
listen, Iāll turn you into a goon
But the next dayā¦little Bunny Foo Fooās
hoppinā through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping āem on
the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said
Little Bunny Foo Foo I donāt want to see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
Iāll give you 1 more chance and if you wonāt listen, Iāll turn you into a goon like I said
Do you think he listened?
Little Bunny Foo Fooās hoppinā through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping āem on the head
And then down comes the good fairy, and this is what she said
Little Bunny Foo Foo I donāt like your attitude scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
You have no more chances, you wouldnāt listenā¦now poof, youāre a goon.
And now kids, itās the crazy goon music
Everyone up and dance like a goon
And the moral of this story is hare today, goon tomorrow.
