Stacey Kent - Tis Autumn lyrics
[Stacey Kent - Tis Autumn lyrics]
Old Father time checked
So there'd be no doubt
Called on the North wind to come on out
Then cupped his hands so proudly to shout
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn!
Trees say they're tired
They've born too much fruit
Charmed on the wayside, there's no dispute
Now shedding leaves, they don't give a hoot -
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn!
Then the birds got together to
Chirp about the weather mmm-mm-mm-mmm
After makin' their decision
In birdie-like precision
Turned about, and made a beeline to the south
My holding you close really is no crime -
Ask the birds and the trees
And old Father Time
It's just to help the mercury climb
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn
It's just to help the mercury climb
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn
So there'd be no doubt
Called on the North wind to come on out
Then cupped his hands so proudly to shout
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn!
Trees say they're tired
They've born too much fruit
Charmed on the wayside, there's no dispute
Now shedding leaves, they don't give a hoot -
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn!
Then the birds got together to
Chirp about the weather mmm-mm-mm-mmm
After makin' their decision
In birdie-like precision
Turned about, and made a beeline to the south
My holding you close really is no crime -
Ask the birds and the trees
And old Father Time
It's just to help the mercury climb
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn
It's just to help the mercury climb
La-di dah di dah-di dum, 'tis autumn
