Misc Television – The Muppet Show - Cottleston Pie (Guitar)

E
But not very much like Fozzie Bear. This is a song he would sing when somebody would say something he didn't

E
quite understand. He could have said "what?", or "I beg your pardon", but Pooh would instead sing this song,

E
which he made up for singing when his brain felt fluffy
