The singing sea, The talking trees Are silent in a noisy way. The stars are bright But give no light The world spins backwards every day. (Oh, look at that!) A rainbow rat, A checkered cat Go tail in tail along the road. The mouse is pleased. The moon is cheese. The sun is shining hot and cold. A golden bird Today I heard Sitting upon a silver branch. His little song was very long Which made me sad and start to laugh. (Ooh, let me see!) My sister is he. My brother is she. But there is only me in the family. When I grow up Oh, I'll go down The river to that singing sea.
