Lyrics
Lions and Tigers
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
26 letters from A to Z
L-A-U-G-H, E and there's S
Put them in an order and
They become words
Words become a sentence
We'll add nouns and verbs
I'd like to show you a million things
I'd like to make the world for you a better place
But when it pours, it really rains, so
Put on your boots, and let's play
Ants live in a jungle
Leave a trail to their homes
So they can find their way back
If they're ever alone
Monkeys in the trees
They eat bananas too fast
Lions and the tigers they
Hunt in the grass
I'd like to show you a million things
I'd like to make the world for you a better place
But when it pours, it really rains, so
Put on your boots, and let's play
How come all the rulers of this earth
Get off on teaching something strong
Please learn to rule with your head, not your fist
And those lessons that you learn will carry on
I'd like to show you a million things
I'd like to make the world for you a better place
But when it pours, it really rains, so
Put on your boots, and let's play
It's a long long way to go now
I'll be there if you call
It's a long long way to go now
I'll be there if you call
