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
