Hum dum dee dum hum dum dee dum
I’m so rumbly in my tumbly
Time to munch an early luncheon
Hum dee dum dum dum

Oh, I wouldn’t climb this tree
If a Pooh flew like a bee
But I wouldn’t be a bear then
So I guess I wouldn’t care then!

Bears love honey
And I’m a Pooh bear
So I do care
So I’ll climb there
I’m so rumbly in my tumbly
Time for something, for something…sweet!

The Most Wonderful Thing About Tiggers

Based on ‘The Tigger Movie’

On this crisp and cool Autumn day, Tigger was doing what Tiggers do best – a bit of bouncing through the Hundred Acre Wood singing his signature song.

The wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is Tiggers are wonderful things
Their tops are made out of rubber
Their bottoms are made out of springs
They’re bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is I’m the only one

Tiggers are cuddly fellas
Tiggers are awfully sweet
Everyone elses is jealous
That’s why I repeat and repeat

The wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is Tiggers are marvelous chaps
They’re loaded with vim and with vigor
They love to leap in your laps
They’re jumpy, bumpy, clumpy, pumpy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN
But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is I’m the only one
I’m the only one

Rabbit immediately hops into action with a plan to remove the rock, which ultimately fails. Tigger however bounces the rock away, taking all his friends with it. Tigger felt terrible and set out to make things right. When snow started to approach, Tigger gathered everyone together to reveal Eeyore’s cozy new home.

Someone Like Tigger

Based on ‘The Tigger Movie’

Tigger was feeling rather alone, and sings Someone Like Me.

Mostly I’m happy and I’m bouncy
Because I am the onliest one
But now all at once I feel so lonely
For someone like me

Right now I’m sorta feelin’ downcy
I’m just about the loneliest one
And deep in my heart
I’m sort of wishin’
For someone like me

Somebody with springs and things
Who laughs and sings and jumps everyday
Somebody who’s fun, fun, fun
Who loves to trounce and pounce
And bounce the gloomies away

How I dream there is another
A double or a triple of me
But since I’m awake I feel so lonely
Because I know it can’t be

Bein’ the I’m the one and onliest
Someone…like me
Someone like me

Tigger realised that with such good friends as he has that are like family, he would never ever truly be alone.

Pooh’s Balloon

Based on ‘The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh’

Christopher Robin asks Pooh what he is supposed to be and Pooh replies that he’s a little black rain cloud. Christopher Robin gives him a baloon and Pooh floats up to the top of the tree in search of honey and sings.

I’m just a little black rain cloud
Hovering under the honey tree
I’m only a little black rain cloud
Pay no attention to little me

Oh, everyone knows that a rain cloud
Never eats honey, no, not a nip

I’m just floating around over the ground
Wondering where I will drip

Pooh finds himself chased by honey bees and both he and Christopher Robin escape the bees by hiding in a muddy puddle.
