The owl and the pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat
They took some honey and plenty of money
Wrapped up in a five-pound note
The owl looked up to the stars above
And sang to a small guitar
"Oh, lovely pussy, oh, pussy, my love
What a beautiful pussy you are, you are
What a beautiful pussy you are"
Pussy said to the owl, "You elegant fowl
How charmingly sweet you sing
Oh, let us be married, too long we have tarried
But what shall we do for a ring?"
So they sailed away for a year and a day
To the land where the bong tree grows
And there in a wood the Piggy-wig stood
With a ring at the end of his nose, his nose
A ring at the end of his nose
"Dear pig, are you willing to sew for one shilling?
"Your ring?" said the piggy, "I will"
So they took it away and were married next day
By the turkey who lives on the hill
And they dined on mince and slices of quince
Which they ate with their uncinful spoon
And hand in hand on the edge of the sand
They danced by the light of the moon, the moon
They danced by the light of the moon
