Lyrics

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 forever! Fur! Unforgettable 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 furr 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 forever! Fur! Unforgettable fur!

My head's in a whir My thoughts are a blur When I think of my fur-bulous First-rate fur! Oh, fur! Unforgettable fur!
