Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Twinkle, twinkle little star
I don’t know what got you where you are.
Up above, but I can’t see you
Through the snow and clouds there too.

Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I would like to be where you are.
Looking down upon the ground
Watching us all race around.

Twinkle, twinkle little star
Why can’t I be where you are?
Then again I would be dead
That’s a thing that we all dread.

Looking up, we can’t see you
I suppose you cannot see me too
Twinkle, twinkle little star
I think I’ll not go where you are.
