What kind of fairy did you sing in 'Little Bunny Foo Foo'?

Little Bunny Foo Foo hopping through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
Down came the goooooood fairy, and she said:
Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you
Scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
I'll give you three chances to be good, but if you don't I'll turn you into a gooooooon!

The next day,

I'll give you two more chances to be good, but if you don't I'll turn you into a gooooooon!

I gave you three chances to be good, now POOF, you're a gooooooon!

You forgot to include the moral of the story....
Hare today, goon tomorrow. Lol
 
I've only ever said 'fairy'. No good, bad, blue, crazy or otherwise, lol.

Doooowwwwwn came the faiiiirrrryyy and she said...
 
Please! The field mice totally deserved their bopping. They've been tormenting Bunny Foo Foo for years. But like in so many other cases, the Good Fairy only sees the retaliatory strike and Bunny Foo Foo takes the fall while the field mice get off with only a bit of a headache.

Now poor BFF is stuck being a goon for eternity. Just sad. :sad2:

:rotfl:

The good fairy.

But I bet a lot of people started singing it that way in the Barney era. I actually learned the song when my kids were into Barney back in the mid 90s.

Early 70's here and we sang "good Fairy"

I learned this song in the early/mid 70's (pre-Barney) and we sang "good fairy".

Hare today, goon tomorrow. Lol

:thumbsup2
 
I must have been boring. I just remember singing it as "The Fairy".
 
good fairy. and yes, you have to include hare today, goon tomorrow. 1970s, well before barney.

In the early '80's, the girls in my Brownie troop looooved to sing this along with hand motions. It was a favorite camping trip song along with Alices' Camel has two humps and Missy Susie. The sillier the better! Can't believe these girls now have families of their own.

I learned Little Bunny Foo Foo and Alice The Camel in Campfire Girls in the late 70's, early 80's. Never heard of Missy Susie.

We always sang:
Down came the goooooood fairy, and she said:
Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't like your attitude
Scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head
 
This feels like an April Fool's joke on me. I have no idea what any of you are talking about! I've never heard this song in my life!
 
I remember using both rabbit and bunny. nope, no april fools joke...and I haven't been able to get it out of my head since reading this thread! lol
