Sleeping Bunnies lyrics

See the little bunnies sleeping

Till it’s nearly noon

Shall we wake them

With a merry tune?

They’re so still,

Are they ill?

Wake up soon.

Wake up bunnies!

Hop little bunnies hop, hop, hop.

Hop little bunnies hop, hop, hop

Hop little bunnies hop, hop, hop

Hop and stop.
