Tree Hugger Lyrics


Flower said, "I wish I was a tree"
The tree said, "I wish I could be
A different kind of tree"
The cat wished that it was a beeThe turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the seaAnd in the sea there is a fish
A fish that has a secret wish
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on itAnd in the sea there is a fish
A fish that has a secret wish
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on itAnd the flower would be
Its offering of love to the desert
And the desert so dry and lonely
That the creatures all appreciate the effortEt le jackalope a dit
"Je voudrais tre un yeti
Pour voler dans la nuit

Et m'en aller loin d'ici"Mais le yeti a dit
"Je voudrais tre un monstre marin
Pour pouvoir rentrer dans la mer
De tous les requins"And the rattlesnake said
"I wish I had hands so I could hug you like a man"
And then the cactus said, "But don't you understand?""My skin is covered with sharp spikes
That'll stab you like a thousand knives
A hug would be nice
But hug my flower with your eyes"Till the flower said, "I wish I was a tree"
The tree said, "I wish I could be
A different kind of tree"
The cat wished that it was a beeThe turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the seaAnd in the sea there is a fish
A fish that has a secret wish
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on itAnd in the sea there is a fish
A fish that has a secret wish
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on itAnd the flower would be
Its offering of love to the desert
And the desert so dry and lonely
That the creatures all appreciate the effort
