Owl and the Pussycat

The Owl and the Pussycat Went for a ride,

on the number 9 Bus from Clovelly,

They took for their lunch some honey nut crunch

And a carton of milk from the Deli.

The cat rang the bell so the driver could tell

That they’d want to get off at the park

Into the park the owl chased a lark

While the cat layed out under a tree

They went for a paddle then sat on a swing

Cat started meowing and owl tried to sing

a dog on the slide barked “what the hells that”

said owl “don’t blame me it’s this silly old cat”

At the end of their trip they decided to nip

Down the pub for a pint before dinner

The barman said hi, I have fishy pie which

For you two I think is a winner

The owl gave a screech, can we please have one each

And the pussy just purred with excitement

Then after their fill they settled their bill

And ran off down the hill to watch telly

The cat on her cushion the owl on his perch

Poor pussy was rubbing her belly

Oh my she did sigh how I love fishy pie

But I think I have eaten too much.

It’s been a good day fun and games all the way

Said the owl and pussy together

We’ll do it again and next time go by train

Then maybe we’ll go so much further

Perhaps to the zoo like human folk do

As long as they don’t keep us in.
