Conrad the Caterpillar thought he was really killer, Couldn't wait to build a cocoon (original lyrics) Couldn't wait to buy blue suede shoes (recent lyrics) Spent all his days eatin' leaves in the shade And stayed when the night set, too. Conrad the Caterpillar knew life would be a thriller Soon as the threads was spun Wouldn't stop to play in the Caterpillar Games Till his own webbing game was done.
He said, "No, no, I got no time to play, Got a thousand little legs that don't get me too far in a day, I'm leaving, looks like I can't stay."
That little pillar he found him a willow Spun in with a craftsmans weave Wound so tightly to protect him from the light And all shapes of water that drop from the leaves Conrad the Caterpillar knew he would be a chiller And he wound it tighter some more Wound it so wide and the ends of his legs got sore.
He said, "No, now I can't feel my feet Just when I thought it was time to take a stroll on down the street I'm leaving, looks like I can't leave What do you know? What's all this moving around with inside me?
What kind of 'piller could touch the world of a miller Chopping trees to build a new store Nobody sees a lonely bump on the tree Except a lump who's crying for more Conrad the Caterpillar knew life would be a chiller as he wound it tighter some more Anybody stands in the caterpillar's place is moving in a standing run
He said, "No brother, I just need some room to fly, I spent all of my days just trying to keep dry Oh I'd take a waterfall or a drop from my eye I can't see nothin' from here anyway, I might as well make room and try Might as well try
Oh no, I just need a little room to play Got a thousand little wings and I'm gonna use them all today I'm leaving, it looks like I gotta stay.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
