Wooly Bully

The lyrics create a playful, energetic scene rather than telling a clear, serious story. Matty and Hatty hear about a strange creature, then Hatty suggests they should not be afraid or miss out: they should learn to dance. The repeated calls to watch, move, and join in make the song feel like an invitation to a party.

The “two big horns” and “wooly jaw” give the creature a shaggy, almost cartoonish image, but the lyrics never explain exactly what it is. “Let’s not take no chance” sounds like a warning, while “let’s not be L-seven” appears to mean not being dull or unfashionable. “Pull the wool” may suggest getting someone to join the fun, though the phrase is unusual here and its exact meaning is uncertain.

The creature could be a real animal in the story, a comic invention, or simply a lively figure that helps drive the dance-song atmosphere. Likewise, the verses offer only a loose sequence of conversation and encouragement, not a fully explained plot. The main feeling is cheerful and slightly mischievous: instead of staying cautious or standing aside, the characters are urged to move, dance, and enjoy themselves.
