What a perfect place for a treehouse In the limbs of that old tree I'd spend all my time just dreaming Of what a wonderful time it would be To be running away from the pirates Who were after me! While looking for a place to hide I'd look up and see That treehouse snuggled high above The perfect place for me. The only way up Not the way you would think Was a little old Elf Sitting there on a shelf Saying, "I'll give you a boost for a drink" So I pulled out my cup And went looking For water was surely nearby He said, "Water's not my favorite drink, I'll have a cup of Rye" I had no Rye to my name Thinking quickly on my feet "Let the pirates give him a drink of Rye" When they go up, I'll say "Goodbye" What a perfect place for a treehouse, If I were only 10 (again}.

If I were only 10 (Again)
What a perfect place for a treehouse In the limbs of that old tree I'd spend all my time just dreaming Of what a wonderful time it would be To be running away from the pirates Who were after me! While looking for a place to hide I'd look up and see That treehouse snuggled high above The perfect place for me. The only way up Not the way you would think Was a little old Elf Sitting there on a shelf Saying, "I'll give you a boost for a drink" So I pulled out my cup And went looking For water was surely nearby He said, "Water's not my favorite drink, I'll have a cup of Rye" I had no Rye to my name Thinking quickly on my feet "Let the pirates give him a drink of Rye" When they go up, I'll say "Goodbye" What a perfect place for a treehouse, If I were only 10 (again}.
