Grasshopper Kings
Come sit with me lovey
I’m excited to see
The clouds dancing high
In the deep blue sea
We’ll make dandelion rings
And weave clover blossom
Make bracelets of violets
Now don’t we look awesome
We’ll take our tea party under the willow
While the branches sway
To the music in our smiles
Our pinkies up in the most genteel style
As the sun beams hotter
We’ll make castles of sand
Where lady bug princesses
Marry grasshopper kings
But she never stays long enough
To find her a ring
Now let us eat supper
From our petunia plates
Honeysuckle nectar
The fare is first rate
Before we head for home
Let’s stroll past the creek
Create boats from milk pods
Now passengers we seek
Ahhh the princess
Back to us she did fly
And since she’s not scared
We put her inside
She sailed away
To a distant shore
Where her king waits
Forevermore
