Yankee Doodle Bunny
The Easter Bunny comes to town
On every Easter Sunday.
She leaves me jelly beans and stuff
And I eat it all by Monday.
Easter Bunny keep it up,
At painting eggs you're handy.
Come on out on Easter Day
And bring some chocolate candy.
The bunny paints a zillion eggs.
She buys them by the dozens.
And then, to get them done in time,
She has to hire her cousins.
Easter Bunny keep it up,
At painting eggs you're handy.
Come on out on Easter Day
And bring some chocolate candy.
The Easter Bunny came to town,
A' ridin' in a Chevy.
She hit a bump and broke her eggs
And drove into the levee.
Easter Bunny keep it up,
At painting eggs you're handy.
Come on out on Easter Day
And bring some chocolate candy.
Oh! Easter is my favorite day
Because of Easter Bunny.
Her little tail and special hop
Sure make that bunny funny.
Easter Bunny keep it up,
At painting eggs you're handy.
Come on out on Easter Day
And bring some chocolate candy.

Easter Isn't Easy
I heard a funny bunny say,
"I just go nuts on Easter day.
I hide about a zillion eggs
And baskets tangle up my legs.
"I'm tired, my eyes are full of tears
And overflowing to my ears.
If I'm to work more Easter Days
At my age I should change my ways
"I know I must do something rash
So I'll start saving all my cash
Then next year, with a little luck
I'll deliver in my pick up truck."

Meeting the Easter Bunny
On Easter morn at early dawn
before the cocks were crowing
I met a bob-tail bunnykin
and asked where he was going.
"'Tis in the house and out the house
a-'Tispy, tipsy-toeing,
'Tis round the house and 'bout the house
a-lightly I am going."
"But what is that of every hue
you carry in your basket?"
"'Tis eggs of gold and eggs of blue;
I wonder that you ask it.
"'Tis chocolate eggs and bonbon eggs
and eggs of red and gray,
For every child in every house
on bonny Easter day."
He perked his ears and winked his eye
and twitched his little nose;
He shook his tail -- what tail he had --
and stood up on his toes.
"I must be gone before the sun;
the east is growing gray;
'Tis almost time for bells to chime." --
So he hippety-hopped away.

Funny Bunny
Little Easter, the comedienne bunny,
Tried too hard at being funny.
She juggled and she dropped the eggs
They fell and smashed between her legs.
Poor Easter left the stage in shame
And thought that she might change her name.
But then that bunny read this ad,
"This Sunday we need help real bad."
So Easter Bunny kept her name
And through the years has gained much fame,
When Easter's Sunday comes each year.
She delivers eggs and we all cheer.
