When I wake up in my tree Wake up in my bedroom tree A little girl and a parakeet Are singing to me My, oh my, what a peaceable kingdom Why would I ever wanna leave Leave a peaceable kingdom And when I wake up on the floor On the carpeted forest floor All of the squirrels in their conifers Are saying to me My, oh my, even if you had set of wings Why would you ever wanna fly From a peaceable kingdom Oh my, oh my, what a peaceable kingdom Why would I ever wanna leave Leave a peaceable kingdom It's quiet a night When the monkeys retire So we lay down our faces By the fireplace And sing softly What a peaceable kingdom
