The Pussy and the Bong Tree

I was taking Kaydance to daycare the other day and got really distracted. As I was signing her in I heard "Oh lovely pussy, my beautiful pussy," and immediately forgot what I was doing. Um what? I didn't just hear that coming from a CD player in a daycare classroom did I?

 

"What a beautiful pussy you are, you are, you are, what a beautiful pussy you are. Pussy said to the Owl, you elegant fowl."

 

I just stood there looking really confused. Am I in a twilight zone?

 

Daycare Lady: Ma'am? Is everything okay?"

 

Me: You hear that too right?

 

We both wait and listen.

 

"They sailed away, for a year and a day. To the land where the Bong-tree grows."

 

She looks confused.

 

Me: Is this a real song?

 

Daycare Lady: Yes. What's wrong?

 

"They took some honey, and plenty of money, Rolled up in a five pound note."

 

Me: I'm. Going. To work.

 

"O lovely pussy! O pussy, my love, what a beautiful pussy you are, you are, you are. What a beautiful pussy you are."

 

I got out to the parking lot and googled it on my phone. Apparently this is a legit song/poem.  And its about a cat. Told you cats are weird.
