House at Pooh Corner
Ka'au Crater Boys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Christopher robin and i walked along
As the branches lit up by the moon
Posing our questions to owl and eyore
As our days disappeared all too soon
But i wandered much farther today than i should
And i can′t seem to find my way back to the woods

So help me if you can i've got to get
Back to the house at pooh corner by one
You′d be surprised there's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of christopher robin and pooh

Winnie the pooh doesn't know what to do
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose
Now he came to me asking help and advice
And from here no one knows where he goes
So i sent him to ask of the owl if he′s there
How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear

So help me if you can i′ve got to get
Back to the house at pooh corner by one
You'd be surprised there′s so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of christopher robin and pooh

So help me if you can i've got to get
Back to the house at pooh corner by one
You′d be surprised there's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of christopher robin




Back to the ways of christopher robin
Back to the ways of pooh

Overall Meaning

The Ka'au Crater Boys song "House at Pooh Corner" is a tribute to the beloved children's book character Winnie the Pooh. The song reflects on the simplicity of childhood and the happiness found in spending time with friends. Christopher Robin and the singer of the song walk through the woods, addressing their questions to Owl and Eeyore, and basking in the moonlight. The days pass too quickly and the singer wanders too far into the woods and cannot find his way back. He asks for help to return to the "House at Pooh Corner" by one, where there is always so much to be done. Counting bees and chasing clouds from the sky, the singer longs to return to the days of innocence and simplicity.


The second verse of the song focuses on Winnie the Pooh's predicament. He has gotten a honey jar stuck on his nose and needs help. The singer sends Pooh to Owl to ask for advice on how to remove the jar, but nobody knows where Pooh goes. The song is a reminder that we can all get lost, even in situations as simple-seeming as getting a honey jar unstuck from your nose. It reflects on how sometimes we need help from friends to find our way back to where we are meant to be.

This song is timeless and beautiful. Kenny Loggins would be so proud to hear how his song was covered.

Rest in paradise, Uncle Ernie. May your music live on.
