BUTTERFLY

I eat leaves, eat leaves all day

I work and I work and I slug away

And if you are to ask me why

It's because real soon I'll be a butterfly

I climb trees climb trees all day

I eat through fruit and I make my way

And if you are to ask me why

It's because real soon I'll be a butterfly

I watch the moons through night and day

Making my cocoon for me to stay

And if you are to ask me why

It's because real soon I'll be a butterfly

I roll up in my cocoon

So I can sleep and change real soon

And if you are to ask me why

It's because real soon I'll be a butterfly

I was a caterpillar in the wild

I survived as one of nature's child

I flap my wings and I sing my song

I'm a butterfly now and my work is done

Now I bounce on flowers and sing

Drinking nectar and pollen I bring

And if you are to ask me why

Well I wasn't always a butterfly
