"A Day in the Life of a Pooh" is a song from "Pooh's to Do," a story from The Book of Pooh. Pooh was very late for meetings, so after a failed attempt to make Pooh more on time, the gang had Pooh share what he does every day so that Rabbit could create the perfect schedule for him.
Lyrics[]
Pooh:
I suppose it isn't terribly exciting,
And it might not be not interesting to you
But for the record, I should say
That I'd never ever trade,
For a day in the life of a Pooh
I can get up when my tummy says I ought to (Piglet: His tummy says that often.)
And I haven't any pressing work to do
So I spend most of my hours
Watching clouds and sniffing flowers
That's a day in the life of a Pooh
Oh, I love to go strolling through the Hundred Acre Wood
And hum a tune in the shade of the trees (Owl: Quite lovely.)
And pretty soon, it's time to steal a smackerel of honey
From the honey bees...
Others:
The honey bees!
Pooh:
Oh, I have so many lovely friends and neighbors,
That I wish I had more time to spend, it's true
There really is no finer way
To wait 'til over time away
Others:
Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall,
He's doing nothing much at all
Pooh:
There is no better way to be
Than to have and live a day like me
All:
Or a day in the life of a Pooh
That's a day in the life of a Pooh!
