by Buttons the Bunny
I like to slip-slide down my ol’ bunny hole
I hippity-hop when I go for a stroll
I jiggle my jambs and I wiggle my nose
I like to jump, jump where the green grass grows.
*
I have an odd habit of bobbin’ my head
I collect buttons and bounce on my bed
I fiddle a fiddle with no fiddle there
But whatever I do, I do it with flare!
*
I dawdle and doodle and dance with a mop
I bugle and bellow and blow bubbles in pop
I chuckle and chortle at jokes that aren’t funny
But I hope you’ll still think me one charming bunny!
*
I dart among bushes and dangle from trees
I ask for more berries, and always say “please”
I twiddle and tumble and twist, twist my ears
But I’m hopeful and happy and full of good cheer!
*
I try to act rightly whatever I do
I try to speak kindly and politely, too
I share my carrots and eat all the rest
I think on good things and hope for the best
*
These are the habits of this rabbit
For me, they’re not strange
These are the habits of this rabbit
Who’d want me to change?
