Tree Hugger Lyrics & Chords By Antsy Pants

LyricsView Chords

The flower said "I wish I was a tree"
The tree said "I wish I could be
A different kind of tree"
The cat wished that it was a bee
The turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the sea

(pre chorus:)
And in the sea there is a fish
A fish that has a secret wish
A wish to be a big cactus with
A pink flower on it
And in the sea there is a fish
A fish that has a secret wish
A wish to be a big cactus with
A pink flower on it

(chorus:)
And the flower
Would be its offering
Of love to the desert
And the desert's
So dry and lonely
That the creatures all appreciate the effort

Et le cachalot a dit
Je voudrais être un yeti
Pour voler dans la nuit
Et m'en aller loin d'ici
Mais le yeti a dit
Je voudrais être un monstre marin
Pour pouvoir rentrer dans la mer
De tous les requins.

Translation (not sung):
(And the sperm whale said
I wish I was a yeti
So I could steal into the night
And get away from here
But the yeti said
I wish I was a sea monster
So I could go into the sea
With all the sharks.)

And the rattlesnake said
"I wish I had hands
So I could hug you like a man"
And then the cactus said
"But don't you understand?
My skin is covered with sharp spikes
That'll stab you like a thousand knives
A hug would be nice
But hug my flower with your eyes"

The flower said "I wish I was a tree"
The tree said "I wish I could be
A different kind of tree"
The cat wished that it was a bee
The turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the sea

(pre chorus)
