Rise and shine my lilac I've something special planned Wait now, don't get up too fast Here, let me take your hand I've brought your morning coffee But that's not the big surprise I'll tell you while you're sipping it As sleep fades from your eyes I've gotten us a bicycle One that's built for two It's got a wicker basket And a comfy seat for...
