Chonny Jash - The Moss lyrics

Legend has it that the moss grows on
The north side of the trees
Well, legend has it when the rain comes down
All the worms come up to breathe
Well, legend has it when the
Sunbeams come all the plants
They eat them with their leaves
Well, legend has it that the world spins
Round on an axis of 23 degrees

But have you heard the story of
The rabbit in the moon?
Or the cow that hopped thе
Planets while straddling a spoon
Or she, who lеapt up mountains
While whistling up a tune
And swapped her songs
With swallows while riding on a broom
Well, we can all learn things
Both many and a-few from that old hunched-up
Woman who lived inside a shoe


Or the girl that sang by day and
By night she ate tear soup
Or the man who drank too much
And he got the brewers' droop

Come listen, all ye fair maids
To how the moral goes
Nobody knew and nobody knows
How the Pobble was robbed of
His twice five toes
Or how the Dong came to own a luminous nose
Or how the Jumblies went to sea
In a sieve that they rowed
And came to shore by the Chankly
Bore where the Bong-trees grow
Where the Jabberwocky's small green
Tentacles do flow
And the Quangle Wangle plays in
The rain and the snow
But have you heard the story of
The rabbit in the moon?
Or the cow that hopped the
Planets while straddling a spoon
Or she, who leapt up mountains
While whistling up a tune
And swapped her songs
With swallows while riding on a broom
Well, we can all learn things
Both many and a-few from that old hunched-up
Woman who lived inside a shoe
Or the girl that sang by day and
By night she ate tear soup
Or the man who drank too much
And he got the brewers' droop

But everything you see isn't
Everything that is
Every thing you think to be
Every thought you can't dismiss
The lives we try to lead and the time we
Try to give, well it's all a fallacy
We continue to relive
And every thing will live
Just as every thing
Will die every foe that you forgive
And every friend that you deny every
Single first hello, and every single last
Goodbye every smile that you show
Every tear that you hide

Well legend says that one and one is two
And that one and two is three
Well legend has it that the first
Flight flew back in nineteen-zero-three
Well legend has it that we're all just
Doomed and we've ruined our society
Well legend has it that we dug our tomb
Which we'll lie in for all eternity

But have you heard the story of
The rabbit in the moon?
Or the cow that hopped the
Planets while straddling a spoon
Or she, who leapt up mountains
While whistling up a tune
And swapped her songs
With swallows while riding on a broom
Well, we can all learn things
Both many and a-few from that old hunched-up
Woman who lived inside a shoe
Or the girl that sang by day and
By night she ate tear soup
Or the man who drank too much
And he got the brewers' droop

But everything you see isn't
Everything that is
Every thing you think to be
Every thought you can't dismiss
The lives we try to lead and the time we
Try to give, well it's all a fallacy
We continue to relive
And every thing will live
Just as every thing
Will die every foe that you forgive
And every friend that you deny every
Single first hello, and every single last
Goodbye every smile that you show
Every tear that you hide

Well legend has it that the moss grows
On the north side of the trees
Well legend has it that the moss that
Grows will outlive both you and me
Well legend has it that the world once knew
A whole palette of lovely blues and greens
Well legend has it that our corpses
Lie a foundation of insincerity
