Gus The Sneaky Goose Lyrics
By the pond
Where the willows sway
Lives a goose named Gus
Who loves to play
His eyes, they twinkle
Bright as the day
When he spots a tasty picnic
He can't stay away
He loves the bread
He loves the cake
If it's on your plate
It's his to take
He's quaint, quiet
Oh so slick
When it comes to filling his beak
He moves super quick
Gus, Gus, the goose, oh my
Hungry and on the loose
With a glint of mischief in his eye
He'll take a nibble, maybe two
When you're not looking
That's his cue
Sly Gus means well
He means no harm
He's not equipped
To resist the charm
Of a tasty treat
Left all alone
In a picnic basket
On top of a small pond stone
He loves your grapes
He loves your pie
If it's tasty, he'll
Give it a try
He's more than happy
To share your snack
As long as he takes, takes, takes
And never gives back
Gus, Gus, the goose, oh my
Hungry and on the loose
With a glint of mischief in his eye
He'll take a nibble, maybe two
When you're not looking
That's his cue
Better hide your crumbs
And drink your juice
Here comes Gus
The sneaky goose
Gus, Gus, the goose, oh my
Hungry and on the loose
With a glint of mischief in his eye
He'll take a nibble, maybe two
When you're not looking
That's his cue
So if you're near the pond
Please beware
Gus might sneak up
So prepare
But don't be mad
Don't raise a fuss
He's just a silly goose
Our friend named Gus
Where the willows sway
Lives a goose named Gus
Who loves to play
His eyes, they twinkle
Bright as the day
When he spots a tasty picnic
He can't stay away
He loves the bread
He loves the cake
If it's on your plate
It's his to take
He's quaint, quiet
Oh so slick
When it comes to filling his beak
He moves super quick
Gus, Gus, the goose, oh my
Hungry and on the loose
With a glint of mischief in his eye
He'll take a nibble, maybe two
When you're not looking
That's his cue
Sly Gus means well
He means no harm
He's not equipped
To resist the charm
Of a tasty treat
Left all alone
In a picnic basket
On top of a small pond stone
He loves your grapes
He loves your pie
If it's tasty, he'll
Give it a try
He's more than happy
To share your snack
As long as he takes, takes, takes
And never gives back
Gus, Gus, the goose, oh my
Hungry and on the loose
With a glint of mischief in his eye
He'll take a nibble, maybe two
When you're not looking
That's his cue
Better hide your crumbs
And drink your juice
Here comes Gus
The sneaky goose
Gus, Gus, the goose, oh my
Hungry and on the loose
With a glint of mischief in his eye
He'll take a nibble, maybe two
When you're not looking
That's his cue
So if you're near the pond
Please beware

So prepare
But don't be mad
Don't raise a fuss
