PagineHoppity
by A. A. Milne
From When We Were Very Young (1924)
Christopher Robin goes
Hoppity, hoppity,
Hoppity, hoppity, hop.
Whenever I tell him
Politely to stop it, he
Says he can’t possibly stop.
If he stopped hopping, he couldn’t go anywhere,
Poor little Christopher
Couldn’t go anywhere . . .
That’s why he always goes
Hoppity, hoppity,
Hoppity,
Hoppity,
Hop.
