Lyrics
Little bunny foo-foo, (hold up two fingers)
hopping through the forest (bounce your hand up and down)
Scooping up the field mice, (make a scooping motion with hand)
and bopping them on the head. (slap top of fist with palm).
(Spoken)
Then down came the Good Fairy, and she said:
Little Bunny Foo-Foo, (wag forefinger - "no-no")
I don't wanna see you (wag forefinger - "no-no")
Scooping up the field mice, (scooping motion with hand)
and bopping them on the head. (slap top of fist with palm)
(spoken)
I'll give you 3 chances,
and if you don't behave,
I'll turn you into a Goon!
Little bunny foo-foo,
hopping through the forest
Scooping up the field mice,
and bopping them on the head.
(Spoken)
Then down came the Good Fairy, and she said:
Little Bunny Foo-Foo,
I don't wanna see you
Scooping up the field mice,
and bopping them on the head.
(spoken)
I'll give you 2 chances,
and if you don't behave,
I'll turn you into a Goon!
Little bunny foo-foo,
hopping through the forest
Scooping up the field mice,
and bopping them on the head.
(Spoken)
Then down came the Good Fairy, and she said:
Little Bunny Foo-Foo,
I don't wanna see you
Scooping up the field mice,
and bopping them on the head.
(spoken)
I'll give you 1 more chance,
and if you don't behave,
I'll turn you into a Goon!
Little bunny foo-foo,
hopping through the forest
Scooping up the field mice,
and bopping them on the head.
(Spoken)
Then down came the Good Fairy, and she said:
Little Bunny Foo-Foo,
I don't wanna see you
Scooping up the field mice,
and bopping them on the head.
POOF! You're a goon!
(Spoken)
And the moral of the story is:
Hare today, goon tomorrow!
