This is not my fault.
I am the very model of a bouncing baby bunny butt
I've bounced across the continent, from port to park to Pizza Hut
I know the whole Glossary, and I quote -isms Cute-icle
While standing on my two front paws, in manner most anerable
I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters controversial
I comprehend what ticks you off, both social and satirical
I clarify the Where and Why of issues touching all of us
From literary inchworm to domestic hippopotamus
I'm practiced as a pilot and like Lindbergh I can navigate
From bunway to the bayou, from the Midwest to the Golden Gate
I've sampled every pudding type from cantaloupe to coconut
I am the very model of a bouncing baby bunny butt!
Shave and a harecut, two bits.
Thanks to all you crazy Peeps in the comments, and of course Gilbert & Sullivan
Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGGLES!!

And the happiest of hippo birddays to the Most High Supreme Purveyor of The Qte, Madame Meg.
(Insert Theo's "Yay!" thingie here.)
What LauraG said.
And also: Theo, this is sweet. Thanks for sharing.
What, you mean *this* Yay thingie?

I believe this should be a national holiday, the Thirtieth of Cuteness.
Can we get a soundbyte of somebody singing that? PUHLEASE?
Whuff, Virginia... that'd require some pretty serious practice, first.
Bravo! Very nicely composed!
I'm gonna be humming this all day, and I've never even seen the Pirates of Penzance!
Happy birthday, Meg! Where's teh caek?
Ahem.
Shave and a haircut,
two BUTTS!!!

I already had this tune stuck in my head 'cause I listened to "The Elements" by Tom Lehrer the other day...now it'll never leave my head!
[So THAT'S why I did the shave-and-a-haircut thing! I totally remember this now. "And there may be many others, but they haven't been discaaaaahvered"... - Ed.]

Oh--and happy b-day Meg!
OMG, this is too weird. The other day I was watching my tapes of the Muppett show with Gilda Radner singing this song with a giant Carrot. And now this! CO is invading my brain. AHHHHHHHHH!
Happy Birthday, Meg! Thanks for all the Cute!
Theo...this was great and I too will be humming the tune all day. BTW, off topic, but you don't happen to own a pub in Woodbury, New Jersey do you? I pass by one on my way home and it says "Theo's Pub" and I always think of you and this site when I see it. That is how much CO has been ingrained into my psyche! :)
FABULOUS!
(CLAPPING WILDLY)
Brilliant writing to Theo-
and of course HUGE Happy Birthday wishes to Meg.
Thank You , Thank you , Thank you! for COL. :)
Noelle -- um, that'd be a definite "No" to the pub ownership, but snap me a pic sometime & I'll stick it on my Vox. Heh.
(PS -- Gilda and the Muppets? Awesome.)
Brilliant, Theo! Gilfurt & Sullibun will never sound the same to me.
Hippo Birdie Two Ewe, Fearless Leader Meg!!
Genius, thy name is Theo.
Hooray for Meg being born!
Happy birthday Meg! :-)
Teho, that was amazing!!!
I dunno which is better: This earworm or Berthaservant's story with the wet cat and the stable boy with the proud buttocks
*giggles uncontrollably*
HAPPY BIRF'DAY MEG!!! May you be blessed with many many many more!! *air-kiss*
ButtaRumCake -- found it!

WHOA. It's like MAGIC in my HEAD.
Too awesome!
Happy Birthday, Meg!
Ms. Moo, have the best of all possible birthdays!
xoxoxo
SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Thanks Teho!!!!
"prissy little trollop"
*snerk*
Theo--awesome animation link. One of my ultimate goals in life is to be able to play that song on the piano and sing along to it...that'll take some practice!
ButtaRum--love that comment by Berthaservant, too! So classic!
Oh, man.
I am blown away.
Theo, I bow down and with head humbly bowed offer up to you the internets on a silver platter.
I was going to try a Shakespearean bunny sonnet, but I am just too stunned.
And Meg, most happy of birthdays to you.
Do it, Charlie. You know you want to.
Theo, just when I think you can't POSSIBLY top yourself... you CAN! I stand/sit in awe.
Meg, for your unflagging spreading of The Cute, I wish you endless supplies of The Luv for your B-Day!
Shoulders of giants, Johanna.
;)
Happily Birfday Miss Meggie Moo. Hope you get some Bouncing Bunny Balloons on your special Day. : D
Happy Birthday Meg! Have a great day.
