Just a tribute to an old classic. This is #lyricsonly

Lyrics

Enough of spring cleaning, let’s head to the river
And visit our friends there like Ratty and Mole
They’ll ply us with crumpets and good conversation
(And if it comes up, Ratty’s actually a vole)

We’ll walk to the Wild Wood and look for the Badger
We’ll learn from his wisdom and sit by the fire
He’ll give us a tour of his underground cavern
About Mr. Badger there’s much to admire

We’ll listen at night to the wind in the willows
We’ll look for a campsite that’s totally ours
We’ll sleep in the forest with moss for our pillows
And talk to each other and gaze at the stars

We’ll go to Toad Hall and we’ll have an adventure
There’s no one more friendly than old Mr. Toad
We’ll ride in his motorcar all through the country
And try to make sure he keeps eyes on the road

We’ll go on a quest for our friend Mr. Otter
And look for the piper who beckons the dawn
Return all the children and rescue his daughter
And stop in a clearing and play with a fawn

We’ll listen at night to the wind in the willows
We’ll look for a campsite that’s totally ours
We’ll sleep in the forest with moss for our pillows
And talk to each other and gaze at the stars

Enough of spring cleaning, let’s head to the river
And visit our friends there like Ratty and Mole
Let’s fly from the village and head to the country
‘Cause living in nature is good for the soul
