once upon a time there was a smart old crow and all the animals in the forest could come to him to ask about anyting that they were worried about one day a tiny black beetle came and said what if a bird carries me away? watch the skies and hide in the hay what if I get lost and start to cry? wait for the sun to make your tears all dry what if I get scared and cant go to sleep? think about fun and dont make a peep what if I cant find a friend? graba pinecone and just pretend what if? wa wa wa wa wa what if? everybody wonders what if? wa wa wa wa wa what if? the smart old crow was there in the same tree everyday waiting to answer all the creatures questions and then one day out of the woods came a big ferocious bear! and in a tiny voice he said: what if I cant be scary enough? it dont mean your not strong and tough what if my cubs wont snarl and growl? listen to the wolf and teach em how to howl what if im nervous to climb a tree? start with a bush and you will see what if the nighttime makes me sad? the sun is comin round to make you glad then one day along came a really strange creature the old crow knew this thing would have lots of interesting fantastical questions and sure enough it did! it was a human baby and it said: what if I cant teach a tiger to dance? take him to a disco in the middle of France what if I cant go to the moon? you can in your dreams at night in June what if I needa squeeze and nobodys there? you could hug this beetle or hug this bear what if my mom and dad go away? youre the one whos gonna wanna go someday and the beetle and the bear and the baby all lay down after asking all these questions and got so sleepy they drifted off and had the best sleep ever....the end |
