The untold story.



The Owl and the Pussy-cat
went to sea in a stolen
pea green boat
They took a jar of honey
and lots of money

“I always knew” cried
Winnie the Pooh “that cat
was after my honey jar”
“And my g, g, guitar, that’s
just not cricket” stammered Piglet
“Oh, and my dinner money”
said Christopher Robin

The Owl and the Pussy-cat got
away with this crime for a
year and a day and went
where Piggy-wig stood

Oh Piggy
Oh Piggy
How happy we are
we are
we are
Oh Piggy how happy
we are!

Piggy got owl by the
scruff of his neck
I bet
I bet
I b, b, bet you are!
Speedily taking back his guitar

“I’ll have my jar of honey” said Winnie the Pooh
“How dare you take my dinner money!
You foul fowl Owl” said Christopher Robin

That’s not quite the end
of this tale - Christopher Robin
had the Owl and the
Pussy-cat thrown in jail!

Positively ROARED all the way through this, Andy; so very visual and can just see it as a knock-about Morecambe and Wise Christmas Show somehow.. or a Hundert Aker Bonnie and Clyde with the eye-masks on, like Lone Ranger and Tonto. Get an illustrator and think Bob Hoskins and Jennifer Saunders... !! :)) xx

A modern fairytale? I'm very surprised that there was any honey and money left.

But thankfully, a kind-hearted pastor visited them in jail,
And he soon agreed to marry them, as was their original wish.

Now, hand in hand, on the edge of their prison cell window,
They dance by the light of the moon,
The moon,
The moon,
They dance by the light of the moon.

Andy, this is a refreshing re-visitation and I believe you've done a fantastic job of making it even more lively than the original. Three cheers! If someone were to attempt to steal my honey and my money. the consequences would not be so funny. I wish you love and peace my dear friend.Jon Michael
