¶Lyrics / Text

1 Here lies a tree which Owl (a bird) Was fond of when it stood on end And Owl was talking to a friend Called me (in case you hadn't heard) When something Oo occurred. 2 For Lo! the wind was blusterous And flattened out his favourite tree; And things looked bad for him and we Looked bad, I mean, for he_and us I've never known them wuss. 3 Then Piglet (Piglet) thought a thing: "Courage!" he said. "There's always hope. I want a thinnish piece of rope. Or, if there isn't any, bring A thickish piece of string." 4 So to the letter box he rose, While Pooh and Owl! said "Oh" and "Hum!" And where the letters always come (Called "Letters only") Piglet sqoze His head and then his toes. 5 O gallant Piglet (Piglet)! Ho! Did Piglet tremble? did he blinch? No, no, he struggled inch by inch Through Letters Only, as I know Because I saw him go. 6 He ran and ran, and then he stood And shouted, "Help for Owl, a bird, And Pooh, a bear!" until he heard The others coming through_the wood As quickly as they could. 7 "Help, help and Rescue!" Piglet cried, And showed the others where to go. [Sing ho! for Piglet (Piglet) ho!] And soon the door was opened wide, And we were both outside! Sing ho! for Piglet, ho! Ho!
