VOICES OF LOVE-
So many voices, herald above;
So much love, in hearts of the young;
Many sing pretty but their voices are dirty;
Those the songs they sing aren’t worthy;
Mouthing out heavenly things;
Teasing the tongue 3 year old learning how to truly love;
What next, what’s up, what’s down;
Oh, so many vocal groups here wearing navy blue suits;
Watchin Captain Kangaroo a captain no one salutes;
Hail your lovely so loving and kind;
I cherish the though forever you stay on my mind, my mind;
So many voices, herald above;
So much love, in hearts of the young;
Many sing pretty but their voices are dirty;
Those the songs they sing aren’t worthy;
Mouthing out heavenly things;
And those recording stars building model cars;
Mrs. Johnson who smokes O.W.L. cigars
Oh, sing a happy little tra la la la da;
Voices of love stay with you ha ha ha ha ha;
Forever never will the deep sounding sounds scare you;
Ever, never will a soft hush ahhh….disturb you oh
My boyfriend is silly;
He thinks that I’m pretty;
Many sing praise pretty but their voices are dirty;
Mouthing out heavenly things
Teasing the tongue 3 year-old learning how to sing with fork-tongues;
Oh, so many vocal groups here wearing navy blue suits;
Watchin Romper Room while no one is home;
Hail your lovely so loving and kind;
I cherish the though forever you stay on my mind, my mind;
So many voices, herald above;
So much love, in hearts of the young;
Many sing pretty but their voices are dirty;
Those the songs they sing aren’t worthy;
Mouthing out heavenly things;
Never will the quiet mouths disturb you;
Herald above, voices of love;
