Just think what else you have to look forward to: knock-knock jokes, Tom Swifties, elephant jokes, and dead baby jokes.

On the other hand, I remember singing "Little Rabbit Fufu" for my parents after I'd learned it at day camp, and they cracked up. They had apparently never heard it before, especially the punchline. It would have been more gratifying for me if I'd realized before I sang it that was a pun. Possibly the last time I missed an opportunity for a pun.

Okay, I give up: explain, please?

I'm not sure there's a great deal to explain. It's a kids' camp song in several verses that's essentially a shaggy dog story, ending with a pun.

Words here -- it's not the exact same version I knew (folk process and all), but the punchline is the same.
