Oh, little creatures That roam the vast lands Defined by freedom With wings that escape time Every flower is your abode Each leaf your shelter Joy is all you know In a world that is only yours Leading the simplest lives As you crawl along Earth's velvet blanket And fly across endless skies You are painters; this universe your canvas No burden upon your shoulders Or rules to choke you Each day is a different colour You choose to see Not tangled with complexity Nothing to rush you Into the maddening race Of this webbed world Prancing with no strings to pull you back No needle can pierce your bubble The only land you have ever known Is an undivided bliss; far from the enemy, An enemy called mankind.

It's a small world...
Oh, little creatures That roam the vast lands Defined by freedom With wings that escape time Every flower is your abode Each leaf your shelter Joy is all you know In a world that is only yours Leading the simplest lives As you crawl along Earth's velvet blanket And fly across endless skies You are painters; this universe your canvas No burden upon your shoulders Or rules to choke you Each day is a different colour You choose to see Not tangled with complexity Nothing to rush you Into the maddening race Of this webbed world Prancing with no strings to pull you back No needle can pierce your bubble The only land you have ever known Is an undivided bliss; far from the enemy, An enemy called mankind.
