"Animal Song" lyrics

Frabjoy & Runcible Spoon Lyrics

"Animal Song"

The day's beginning with a watery sun
(Mmm...)
The dew hangs like silver from a web newly spun
By a spider whose body is as gold as the sun
The doctor is smiling
(Mmm...)
Your girl's had a son

A beaver is building a home in the stream
He'll down the Pacific
He dreamt in a dream
Two dragonflies watch him
From rushes and reeds
The beaver will build
(Mmm...)
But never succeed

The parrot is learning the words of a song
(Mmm...)
The music is sweet but the grammar's all wrong
He'll sing to a porpoise who lives in a tree
And charm all the fish
(Mmm...)
In a faraway sea

The lion is watching above on a hill
Always he has done, always he will
Below in the grass, about an inch high
An elderly cricket is saying goodbye
To the parrot, the spider
(Mmm...)
And the first dragonfly
