Owl and the Pussycat

The Owl and the Pussycat Went for a ride,
on the number 9 Bus from Clovelly,
They took for their lunch some honey nut crunch
And a carton of milk from the Deli.
The cat rang the bell so the driver could tell
That they’d want to get off at the park
Into the park the owl chased a lark
While the cat layed out under a tree
They went for a paddle then sat on a swing
Cat started meowing and owl tried to sing
a dog on the slide barked “what the hells that”
said owl “don’t blame me it’s this silly old cat”
At the end of their trip they decided to nip
Down the pub for a pint before dinner
The barman said hi, I have fishy pie which
For you two I think is a winner
The owl gave a screech, can we please have one each
And the pussy just purred with excitement
Then after their fill they settled their bill
And ran off down the hill to watch telly
The cat on her cushion the owl on his perch
Poor pussy was rubbing her belly
Oh my she did sigh how I love fishy pie
But I think I have eaten too much.
It’s been a good day fun and games all the way
Said the owl and pussy together
We’ll do it again and next time go by train
Then maybe we’ll go so much further
Perhaps to the zoo like human folk do
As long as they don’t keep us in.
