[Heather Dale - Cloudwatching lyrics]
What do you see up there?
I see a mare with a braided mane
Nahhh – it’s more like a duck
No, that one’s a duck
Why not a swan? With a ring on it's toe
That is stole from a giant who lived
In the sun with a spear made of wax
And a goat that drank wine and
Hey look – it’s a wheel
Its sort of a wheel but
It’s more like a cauldron
That’s bubbling over with secrets
And wisdom and cheese! I like cheese
What do you see up there?
I see a forest with shadows to hide in
No, it’s more like a cradle what?
OK, a forest …with shadows to hide in and
Saxons behind every tree!
And the Roman commander is
Injured and bleeding
With no one to save him but me!
But what about me?
No one to save him but UUSSSS!
What do you see up there?
What do you see up there?
I see a gown and a beautiful crown
And ten laughing babies, no twelve… no
Thirteen!
You want a huge family… and I don’t want any!
I think babies are wonderful all
Sweet and loving… and
Who knows what they’ll do when they grow up?
Have you ever cleaned a baby?
Yeah i like the way they smell
Maybe they’ll fly like the children of Lir
… but not have to suffer at all
Maybe they’ll soar even higher than dragons
GASP – did you see that?
I see a mare with a braided mane
Nahhh – it’s more like a duck
No, that one’s a duck
Why not a swan? With a ring on it's toe
That is stole from a giant who lived
In the sun with a spear made of wax
And a goat that drank wine and
Hey look – it’s a wheel
Its sort of a wheel but
It’s more like a cauldron
That’s bubbling over with secrets
And wisdom and cheese! I like cheese
What do you see up there?
I see a forest with shadows to hide in
No, it’s more like a cradle what?
OK, a forest …with shadows to hide in and
Saxons behind every tree!
And the Roman commander is
Injured and bleeding
With no one to save him but me!
But what about me?
No one to save him but UUSSSS!
What do you see up there?
What do you see up there?
I see a gown and a beautiful crown
And ten laughing babies, no twelve… no
Thirteen!
You want a huge family… and I don’t want any!
I think babies are wonderful all
Sweet and loving… and
Who knows what they’ll do when they grow up?
Have you ever cleaned a baby?
