When I wake up in my tree
|
wake up in my bedroom tree
|
a little girl and a parakeet
|
are singing to me
|
|
My, oh my, what a peaceable kingdom
|
why would I ever wanna leave
|
leave a peaceable kingdom
|
|
And when I wake up on the floor
|
on the carpeted forest floor
|
all of the squirrels in their conifers
|
are saying to me
|
|
My, oh my, even if you had set of wings
|
why would you ever wanna fly
|
from a peaceable kingdom
|
oh my, oh my, what a peaceable kingdom
|
why would I ever wanna leave
|
leave a peaceable kingdom
|
|
It's quiet a night
|
when the monkeys retire
|
so we lay down our faces
|
by the fireplace
|
and sing softly
|
what a peaceable kingdom
|
|

Peaceable Kingdom
