TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "Cottleston Pie"


Cottleston Pie

When I was a puppy, I used to enjoy reading about Winnie the Pooh. He's a bear, like Fozzie Bear. But not very much like Fozzie Bear. This is a song he would sing when somebody would say something he didn't quite understand. He could have said "what?", or "I beg your pardon", but Pooh would instead sing this song, which he made up for singing when his brain felt fluffy

A fly can't bird, but a bird can fly
Ask me a riddle and I reply

Now this is where the song changes key. It's what we call modulation. That's G Sharp Minor

A fish can't whistle and neither can I
Ask me a riddle and I reply

Why does a chicken? I don't know why
Ask me a riddle and I reply
