Heffalumps and Woozles

"Heffalumps and Woozles" is a song featured in Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day and later The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It is sung by the Mellomen (portrayed by four singing honey pots at some points, but mostly offscreen) during Pooh's nightmare caused by Tigger. During it, Pooh is terrorized by Heffalumps and Woozles until he awakens.

This song was included on the VHS tapes Disney Sing Along Songs: Be Our Guest and Sing a Song with Pooh Bear.

Lyrics
Voice: Heffalumps and Woozles, Heffalumps and Woozles steal honey, beware, beware! Honey Pots: They're black, they're brown, they're up, they're down They're in, they're out, they're all about They're far, they're near, they're gone, they're here They're quick and slick, they're insincere Beware, beware Be a very wary bear

A Heffalump or Woozle Is very confusil A Heffalump or Woozle's very sly Sly, sly, sly They come in ones and twosles But if they so choozles Before your eyes you'll see them multiply Ply, ply, ply They're extraordinary So better be wary Because they come in every shape and size Size, size, size If honey's what you covet You'll find that they love it Because they'll guzzle up the thing you prize

They're green, they're blue, they're pink, they're white They're round, they're square, they're a terrible sight They tie themselves in horrible knots They come in stripes or polka dots Beware, beware Be a very wary bear

They're extraordinary So better be wary Because they come in every shape and size Size, size, size If honey's what you covet You'll find that they love it Because they'll guzzle up the things you prize

They're black, they're brown, they're up, they're down They're in, they're out, they're all about They're far, they're near, they're gone, they're here They're quick and slick, they're insincere Beware, beware Beware, beware Beware!

Trivia

 * In some languages, the "Heffalumps and Woozles" pun has been slightly modified, as the names of the Heffalumps and Woozles in these languages look more like the real words for "elephants" and "weasels". For example, in French, where elephant is "éléphant" and weasel "Fouines", they basically just reversed some letters, making "Ephélants et Nouifes". Same goes for the Arabic term for Heffalumps.
 * Elements of the song are played earlier when Pooh heard growling and banging noises outside his house that turn out to be Tigger.
 * The song is very similar to "Pink Elephants on Parade".
 * In the soundtrack version of the song, the lyrics describing the colors and patterns on the Heffalumps and Woozles has been left out.
