 Notes
    The original version is intended to be sung to Henrietta Pussycat, who originally had black fur, with the second verse occasionally sung to her neighbor X the Owl, who has blue feathers. It is also occasionally sung in first-person by Henrietta/X respectively (with Henrietta inserting her characteristic "meows" for many words).King Friday XIII has been known to sing a royal version of this song:
I am handsome
I am a king
I am royaly dressed in robes of silk
That's my ilk
Regally I am handsome
Undoubtedly I'm a kingIn Episode 1127, Mrs. Saunders sings a "handsome" version of this song to Prince Tuesday:
You are handsome
You're a prince
You have wonderful eyes and baby hair
You are there
Inside and outside handsome
Surely you are a princeIn Episode 1129, Lady Aberlin sings an "owl" version of this song to Cousin Mary Owl:
You're a big owl
You are nice
You are beautifully dressed in feathers straight
You're first rate
Perfectly you're a big owl
Honestly, you are niceLater in Episode 1129, Mister Rogers sings a "special" version:
You are special
You're my friend
You are beautifully dressed in your own skin
You are in

Obviously, you're my friendIn Episode 1746, reflecting the fact that the Henrietta puppet had worn down to be more gray in color, Mayor Maggie sings a "You are pretty, you are gray" version to Henrietta.
