Abcd in the library
Abcd in the library
Abcd in the library
V1 | Aimee's running round now, she's light on her toes |
She's always busy, there's not much she doesn't know | |
But if you ask a question and she doesn't know the |
|
She'll open a computer and search until she finds the book |
|
Then she'll place it in your hand, ain't life grand | |
ABCD in the library ABCD in the library |
|
V2 | Someone had a thought and then wrote it down |
dreamed a purple sky and an upside down town | |
Someone mapped the ocean, someone felt a poem, come in on a breeze |
|
someone filmed a kiss, and placed it in the library | |
You can hold it in your hand, ain't life grand | |
ABCD in the library ABCD in the library | |
BRIDGE | There's budlija and butterflies |
Playdough and babies cries | |
How to build and sail a boat | |
it's organised, into shelves and aisles | |
You can find the remote | |
V3 | Through the open door you can see, |
All of the world and it's mysteries | |
You can wear your hat crooked, even wear it inside | |
And if you're sleeping rough, it's warm in there | |
In the library, you can be free | |
ABCD in the library |
