Don't Be the Bunny

Lyrics

A little bunny in the meadow
 Is nibbling grass without a care
 He's so delightful as he hops for you
 You say, "Hi, bunny"
 And he stops for you
 You pull your trigger
 And he drops for you
 Goodbye, bunny-boo
 Hello, rabbit stew!
 Get me, boys?
 You tell 'em, boss!
 Don't be the bunny
 Don't be the stew
 Don't be the dinner
 You have better things to do
 It ain't no joke
 That's why it's funny
 So take your cue
 Don't be the bunny
 Don't be the bunny
 But Daddy, we're talking about people, not animals.
 People are animals, Hope dear.
 Animals with huge incisors and big floppy feet?
 Look closely, you'll see them. I do. I see them... everywhere.
 A little bunny at a toll booth
 He needs a measly fifty cents
 Our little bunny didn't plan ahead
 Poor bunny simply hasn't got the bread
 He begs for mercy, but gets jail instead
 Hasenpfeffer's in the air
 As the bunny gets the chair!
 See the moral, people?
 Clear as day, boss!
 Don't be the bunny
 Don't be the dope
 Don't be the loser
 You're much better than that, Hope!
 You're born to pow'r
 You're in the money!
 Advice to you
 Don't be the bunny
 A little bunny at a tollbooth?
 You heard me.
 But Daddy, bunnies don't drive cars.
 Oh, don't they?!
 No, actually, I don't think they do.
 Live long enough, Hope dear, you see... many things.
 Even a daughter doubting her father?
 A little bunny in a shoe box
 He thinks he's found a brand new home
 So snug and cozy on your closet floor
 And then you open up your closet door
 Now what's that bunny in my closet for?
 With a mallet and some clippers
 You find out: new bunny slippers!
 Grasp the message, staff?
 Right behind you, boss!
 Don't be the bunny
 Don't be the shoe
 You don't get stepped on -
 No, the one who steps is you!
 You're stepping up
 To where it's sunny
 Step on the poor!
 Don't be the bunny!
 Don't be the bunny!
 Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah!
