The Singing Sea
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.
The singing sea
The talking trees
Are silent in a noisy way
The stars are bright
But give no light
The world spins backwards everyday
(hey look at that)
A rainbow rat
A checkered cat
Go tail in tail along the road
The mouse is pleased
The moon is cheese
The sun is shining hot and cold
(Awsome Sax Solo)
A golden bird
Today I heard
Sitting upon a silver branch
His little song was very long
Which made me sad and start to laugh.
(hmm let me see)
My sister's he
My brother's she
But there is only me in the family
When i grow up or i'll go down
The River to that singing sea
(ad lib humming to exit)
