[VERSE] President Carter got into his boat Wasn’t in a hurry wanted to float Think about the country Think about sin Along swum a rabbit And he tried to climb in(and what did Jimmy say) [CHORUS] I don’t want a bunny wunny In my widdle wow boat In my widdle wow boat in the pond For the bunny might be cwazy And he’ll bite me in the fwoat In my widdle wow boat in the pond [VERSE] Look at him swimming Look at him fly Ears laid back and a gleam in his eye Hissing through his front teeth Swimming like a seal If you were the President How would you feel (You’d probably say) [CHORUS] I don’t want a bunny wunny In my widdle wow boat In my widdle wow boat in the pond For the bunny might be cwazy And he’ll bite me in the fwoat In my widdle wow boat in the pond [VERSE] President Carter saved the day Splash went a paddle Rabbit swam away Jimmy was a hero Felt it in his bones Said in the words of John Paul Jones (Said in the words of John Paul Jones) [CHORUS] I don’t want a bunny wunny In my widdle wow boat In my widdle wow boat in the pond For the bunny might be cwazy And he’ll bite me in the fwoat In my widdle wow boat in the pond In my widdle wow boat in the pond

La chanson raconte l'histoire humoristique d'un président qui, en profitant d'une balade en bateau, est interrompu par un lapin qui tente de monter à bord. Face à cette situation inattendue, le président exprime son souhait de ne pas avoir ce lapin dans son petit bateau, craignant qu'il soit farouche et qu'il le morde. Dans un style léger et ludique, le chanteur évoque la réaction amusée du président face au lapin fou qui nage et se comporte de manière inattendue. Cette scène illustre à la fois un moment de détente et les pensées qu’on pourrait avoir sur des imprévus, même quand on est à la tête d'un pays.
