{LYRICS}
This diversified, curious, fascinating, bountiful beautiful world!
(I see animals and bugs and flowers,
Ev 'ry color, ev'ry shape and size;)
(Moss and pebbles and a host of wonders,)
Gleaming everywhere I turn my eyes!
So, if ever I'm attacked by boredom,
I just open up my eyes and see…
This diversified…
curious, fascinating…
bountiful, beautiful…
beautiful world.
(I hear chattering and I hear chirping,
Whistlings, murmuring and hopes and spots)
(When I simply take the time to listen)
I hear music of a thousand sorts.
So, if ever I would rest my eyes,
My ears can easily describe to me
This diversified…
curious, fascinating…
bountiful, beautiful…
beautiful world.
(World, thank you very much
For all I see, hear, taste and touch;
Plus ev'ry whiff I sniff.
*sniff sniff*)
(Still, it's possible a day may come when Momentarily, the world wears thin)
(If I worry of the world outside me)
I can always take a good look in.
For along with ev'ry cloud and cobweb.
I'm emphatic'ly a member of
This diversified…
curious, fascinating…
bountiful, beautiful…
beautiful world….
I love!
