Frogs
I'm just chillen up on my lilipad
Best day I ever had
Well I don't have to worry about anything
It was my father's dream to leave for land
Played in a rock n' roll band
And if I had no fear
I'd make the people sing
Yea we're all up, basking in the sunshine
Smaller, than greater flying heights
I love this time of year
I'm out and about
Got bees all buzzing
I'll take bugs not trout
Could I honestly say
Oh I love my life
I'd be brave enough to take the show
I'm all across, hoppin real slow
But I can't take, the 2-0-1-2 dive low
Yea we're all up, basking in the sunshine
Smaller than greater flying heights
On one day
I hate to say
Those dreams swallowed me
Mr. Bird went and left his tree
And now I'm down here singin'
Yea we're all up, basking in the sunshine
Smaller, than greater flying heights
