Forest Time

Filling up the girl
I am filling up the girl
Make her all of the whole world
Filling up the girl
And a brand new baby child
Makes me trunky
Makes me wild
Makes me trumpet of the swan
A brand-new footprint-maker born
I be ashtray i be star
I be monkey by babar
I be hippo calling far
Far into the forest
And a shark i break its back
And an enemy attack
And chompers chomp
And then they crack
And then a baby's eaten
But a baby girl is growing
And all of us over-shadowing
My animal's belowing
Ocean time
Forest time
