Christopher Robin (Is Saying His Prayers)

(album: Born To Be - 1968)

Little Boy kneels at the foot of the bed
Droops on the little hands little gold head
Hush! Hush! Whisper who dares
Christopher Robin is saying his prayers

God bless Mummy. I know that's right
Wasn't it fun in the bath to-night?
The cold's so cold, and the hot's so hot
Oh! God bless Daddy I quite forgot

If I open my fingers a little bit more
I can see Nanny's dressing-gown on the door
It's a beautiful blue, but it hasn't a hood
Oh! God bless Nanny and make her good

Mine has a hood, and I lie in bed
And I pull the hood right over my head
And I shut my eyes, and I curl up small
And nobody knows that I'm there at all

Oh! Thank you, God, for a lovely day
And what was the other I had to say?
I said "Bless Daddy," so what can it be?
Oh! Now I remember it. God bless Me

Little Boy kneels at the foot of the bed
Droops on the little hands little gold head
Hush! Hush! Whisper who dares
Christopher Robin is saying his prayers
