Leaflings

[Intro] Here these two moles lie nake ' in bed They're young and anxious and well fed Full of love and nice things said Full of slugs and happiness Burrowed deep dark silver cave with wet pink paws that want to play But he is not an arrant knave, no he is not no arrant knave Tie green glow worms to their wrists with promises that might be kept Smiles between their perfect lips at fairytales that might be missed and... And these long thin fingers spider leg fingers thеy'll crawl on you They'll scrape your skin... [Chorus] And herе the ceiling slugs can dangle intertwined where they won't dry From a silver stalactite glowing brightly blue, glowing brightly blue in fireflies Here the ceiling slugs can dangle intertwined where they won't dry From a silver stalactite glowing brightly blue, glowing brightly blue in fireflies [Verse 2] They feel blood pulse from heart to head to blush their cheeks and warm their legs Fingers twisted in a nest where small soft birds will hatch their eggs They rub their gums with tiny leaves til 'neath their teeth crawl roots of weeds While their friends forage in the trees with tattered shoes and dirtied knees and... And these long thin fingers spider leg fingers they'll crawl on you They'll scrape your skin... [Chorus] And here the ceiling slugs can dangle intertwined where they won't dry From a silver stalactite glowing brightly blue, glowing brightly blue in fireflies Here the ceiling slugs can dangle intertwined where they won't dry From a silver stalactite glowing brightly blue, glowing brightly blue in fireflies [Outro] Now these two moles lie at cave's edge Her back fits neatly to his chest His arms around her delicate neck They hold each other and hibernate
