Lyrics to Walking And Running
We got rooked to believe
We had more tricks up our sleeves
As the king of the mountain when it blows sky high
You just don't get to see

We get tossed, we get turned
While the ants intercept underground with the worms
We sweat out, evaporation occurs
The rain from the clouds really stirs up the dirt

We are walking and running and we are moving around
Well, we're so very active we make hummingbirds proud
With our talking', talking', chatter, chatter, lips, throat, smile
We make such a noise the Blue Angels are proud
With our poking and prying, we hauled your secrets all out
There was so much garbage, make a rummage sale proud
Here I'm walking and running and we are moving around
Well, we're so really active we make hummingbirds proud, with our

There are some thoughts

Form to words inside our throats
That form inside our
There are some thoughts

Handed every single lesson but we never seem to learn

Here I'm walking and running and we are moving around
Well, we're so very active we make hummingbirds proud

With our talking', talkin', chatter, chatter, lips, throat, smile
We made such a noise that volcanoes are proud
Well we're walking and running and we are moving around
Well we're so very active we make beehives proud

There are some thoughts
That should never
Form to words inside our throats
There are some thoughts
That should never
Form to words inside our throats
