Peaceable Kingdom — текст песни (Adrian Belew)

When I wake up in my tree

Wake up in my bedroom tree

A little girl and a parakeet

Are singing to me



My, oh my, what a peaceable kingdom

Why would I ever wanna leave

Leave a peaceable kingdom



And when I wake up on the floor

On the carpeted forest floor

All of the squirrels in their conifers

Are saying to me



My, oh my, even if you had set of wings

Why would you ever wanna fly

From a peaceable kingdom

Oh my, oh my, what a peaceable kingdom

Why would I ever wanna leave

Leave a peaceable kingdom



Its quiet a night

When the monkeys retire

So we lay down our faces

By the fireplace

And sing softly

What a peaceable kingdom
