Fur
Lyrics by David Axelrod
1975 S.J.L. Music ASCAP
Fur! I am covered with fur
From my snoot to my spur
I'm a furry fella!
Fur! When you stroke it, I purr
When you poke it, I grrr
It's maroon and yella!
Fur! Keeps me warm when it's brrr
Don't you wish that you were
Fairly bursting with fur, fur, fur?
Yes, fur is beautiful, fur is clever
Furthermore, I'll love fur furever!
Fur! Unfurgettable fur!
Now, you may find fur too frightful
But I'd never switch
I find my fur delightful
But, boy, does it itch!
You may see fur as horrible
I say, "No sir!"
To me my fur's adorable
And I'm covered with fur
I kinda grow it
Fur! Keeps me warm when it's brrr
Don't you wish that you were
Fairly bursting with fur, fur, fur?
Yes, fur is beautiful, fur is clever
Furthermore, I'll love fur furever!
Fur! Unfurgettable fur!
My head's in a whir
My thoughts are a blur
When I think of my fur-bulous
Furst-rate fur!
Oh, fur! Unfurgettable fur!
