Carried Away With Books is a song from "Up in the Air Junior Bird Donkey," a story from The Book of Pooh. Kessie wanted to help lift Eeyore's spirits, so she decided to teach him how to fly. She, Pooh, Piglet, and Tigger went to Owl to find a book on flying, and they sang this song together.
Lyrics[]
- [[[Owl]]]
- Suppose you want to know
- What to feed an oyster
- Or say you want to learn
- The names of all the stars
- Perhaps you want to find
- The quickest route to China
- The answer's in a book
- Just have a look
- [[[Kessie]]]
- (But what about a book that can teach Eeyore how to fly?)
- [Owl]
- (Fly?)
- Why with Books you can fly
- And quite a bit more
- (Good heavens!)
- There's so much to say
- They're filled with amazing adventures galore
- With Books, you get Carried Away
- Why, Books keep you company when you're alone
- They're your friends through a rainy day
- Books take you places that you've never known
- With Books you get Carried Away
- I get Carried Away With...
- With Books
- [Piglet]
- (Really, Owl? Will Books do all that?)
- [Owl]
- (Yes! There's a book for almost everything!)
- [Tigger]
- (You don't say? Is there a book that tells why antelopey rhymes with cantaloupey?)
- [Piglet]
- (A book to help me find my cousin, twice removed?)
- [Pooh]
- [Owl]
- (Why, that's what Books are for!)
- [Pooh]
- (Really?)
- [Owl]
- All that and more
- You will find
- With Books you can soar
- Travel far afield and astray
- To places that you've never been to before
- With Books you get Carried Away
- [Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Kessie, and Owl]
- Get Carried Away With Books.
