Lyrics

[00:19.520] The flower said, "I wish I was a tree,"
[00:21.640] The tree said, "I wish I could be
[00:24.000] A different kind of tree,
[00:26.680] The cat wished that it was a bee,
[00:29.020] The turtle wished that it could fly
[00:31.490] Really high into the sky,
[00:33.820] Over rooftops and then dive
[00:36.150] Deep into the sea.
[00:38.340] And in the sea there is a fish,
[00:40.660] A fish that has a secret wish,
[00:43.080] A wish to be a big cactus
[00:45.330] With a pink flower on it.
[00:47.760] And in the sea there is a fish,
[00:50.100] A fish that has a secret wish,
[00:52.690] A wish to be a big cactus
[00:54.680] With a pink flower on it.
[00:56.950] And the flower
[00:58.850] Would be its offering
[01:01.510] Of love to the desert.
[01:06.200] And the desert,
[01:08.810] So dry and lonely,
[01:10.880] That the creatures all
[01:12.570] Appreciate the effort.
[01:16.770] And the rattlesnake said,
[01:35.140] "I wish I had hands so
[01:37.820] I could hug you like a man."
[01:39.680] And then the cactus said,
[01:42.230] "Don't you understand,
[01:44.380] My skin is covered with sharp spikes
[01:46.710] That'll stab you like a thousand knives.
[01:49.200] A hug would be nice,
[01:51.170] But hug my flower with your eyes."
[01:55.990] The tree said, "I wish I could be
[01:58.580] A different kind of tree,
[02:01.010] The cat wished that it was a bee,
[02:03.420] The turtle wished that it could fly
[02:05.890] Really high into the sky,
[02:08.390] Over rooftops and then dive
[02:10.450] Deep into the sea.
[02:12.830] And in the sea there is a fish,
[02:15.240] A fish that has a secret wish,
[02:17.690] A wish to be a big cactus
[02:19.880] With a pink flower on it.
[02:22.430] And in the sea there is a fish,
[02:24.820] A fish that has a secret wish,
[02:27.160] A wish to be a big cactus
[02:29.630] With a pink flower on it.
[02:31.620] And the flower
[02:33.860] Would be its offering
[02:36.010] Of love to the desert.
[02:40.880] And the desert,
[02:43.170] So dry and lonely,
[02:45.740] That the creatures all,Appreciate the effort.
