Lyrics

I am a little hedgehog
I watch as the clouds in the sky
move at a ferocious speeds

Why can't my tiny feet
scurry just as fast?
(No, they can't)

And even though sometimes
I feel so small and scared,
like I have no way
to shape my own happiness,

then I see a cloud,
and right on me it drops
a dark and heavy raindrop
yum-yum!

Oh, how lovely, so lovely,
when I get to fill my belly!
Oh, how lovely, so lovely,
tiny spines are all a-quiver!
A satisfied hum in the forest rings, oh-oh!

And though I am a hedgehog, just a hedgehog,
I like to think
that there must be a reason
things are just the way they are.

That maybe my feet
aren’t made to run so fast,
so the raindrops can find me
oh yeah!

Oh, how lovely, so lovely,
when I get to fill my belly!
Oh, how lovely, so lovely,
tiny spines are all a-quiver!
A satisfied hum in the forest rings, oh-oh!

----------------------

Moi mie oon siili pikkuinen
mie kattelen
kun pilvet taivaalla
hurjaa vauhtia liikkuu

miksei mun pienet
koivet noin kovaa
vauhtia vipeltää voi (ei voi)

---------------------

Ja vaikka joskus tuntuu
et oon pieni ja pelottaa,
ettei omaan onneen
voi näin pieni vaikuttaa

mut sitten nään pilven
ja mun kohdallein osuu
oikein tumma ja märkä
sadepisara nam-nam

-------

ihana niin ihanaa
kun vatsansa täyttää saa
ihanaa niin ihanaa
pienet piikit vipattaa
tyytyväinen hurina metsässä soi, oi-oi!

-------

Ja vaik mie oon siili, pelkkä siili
niin aattelen,
et kai se on syystä
että hommat on näin

et siksei mun jalat
niin täysiä ravaa
että pisarat löytää mut voi, ou jee!

How can a song sound like Kembole and yet not? It's like a children's song for adults? I like the musical theme .. and the mouth trumpet was fresh

Good to see you back, thought I'd de-Zong this one. It's a lovely little melody and well produced for the turnaround time. Now do a handful of other forest dwellers and make a concept album. :)
