"Heffalumps and Woozles" is a song from the March 25, 1978 short film Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day. It was later featured in the April 25, 1987 release The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It was written by the Sherman Brothers.

The song is about phantasmagoric Heffalumps and Woozles becoming a threat to Pooh and his food source. The song serves as a soundtrack to the iconic, psychedelic nightmare sequence where Pooh subconsciously deals with the theft of his all-too-precious honey.

Tigger: 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!
