Walking Around The Sun

Unpublished

The earth is a great big small ball
The earth is the only one of its kind
The earth’s a great big hunk of rock
Beautiful all the time
Striped zebras, long legged giraffes
Hyenas that love to laugh
It’s a weird wonderful world
Walking around the sun

Walking around the sun
Any wonder we’re having fun
Walking around the sun
Walking around the sun
It’s a real phenomenon
Walking around the sun

Cow sharks, kinkajous
Spiders, kangaroos
Mandrill’s with a big red nose
Who don’t wear no underclothes
A platypus with a big long beak
A puffer fish with two blown cheeks
It’s a weird wonderful world
Walking around the sun

Walking around the sun
Any wonder we’re having fun
Walking around the sun
Walking around the sun
It’s a real phenomenon
Walking around the sun

We’re the third planet
Inside a field of stars
Within the Milky Way
Which is not a candy bar
At 27,000 miles per hour
It’s a wonder we can take a shower
It’s a weird wonderful world
Walking around the sun

Walking around the sun
Any wonder we’re having fun
Walking around the sun
Walking around the sun
It’s a real phenomenon
Walking around the sun
