The Owl
[Verse 1]
The owl is awake as much to keep
All the animal friends asleep
Midnight flowers bloom on a tree
Moonlight keeps him company
Midnight flowers bloom on a tree
Hoot (x5)
[Verse 2]
‘The owl is wise’, all wise men say
‘He thinks all night and he sleeps all day'
Lightning bugs dart to and fro
Starlight makes him under-soul
Lightning bugs dart to and fro
Hoot (x5)
[Verse 3]
The owl is quiet most of the time
The midnight bells begin to chime
His every word is grandly astute
The only thing he says is ‘hoot’
His every word is grandly astute
Hoot (x5)
[Verse 4]
The owl won’t fly all through the sky
Preferring his branch to glorify
The midnight beauty will testify
"Hoot" will be his sole reply
The midnight beauty will testify
Hoot (x5)
[Outro]
