A leaf is an organ of a vascular plant, as defined in botanical terms, and in particular in plant morphology. Foliage is a mass noun that refers to leaves as a feature of plants.
Typically a leaf is a thin, flattened organ borne above ground and specialized for photosynthesis, but many types of leaves are adapted in ways almost unrecognisable in those terms: some are not flat (for example many succulent leaves and conifers), some are not above ground (such as bulb scales), and some are without major photosynthetic function (consider for example cataphylls, spines, and cotyledons).
Conversely, many structures of non-vascular plants, or even of some lichens, which are not plants at all (in the sense of being members of the kingdom Plantae), do look and function much like leaves. Furthermore, several structures found in vascular plants look like leaves but are not actually leaves; they differ from leaves in their structures and origins. Examples include phyllodes, cladodes, and phylloclades.
Rakim Mayers (born October 3, 1988), better known by his stage name ASAP Rocky (stylized as A$AP Rocky), is an American rapper and music video director. Born and raised in the New York City neighborhood Harlem, he is a member of the hip hop collective A$AP Mob, from which he adopted his moniker.
Rocky released the mixtape LiveLoveA$AP in 2011 to critical acclaim. He plans to release his debut studio album, LongLiveA$AP, in July 2012.
Born in 1988, Mayers was named after the hip hop star Rakim, one half of the Eric B. & Rakim duo. When he was 12 years old, his father went to jail in connection with selling drugs. A year later an older brother was killed near his apartment, which inspired him to take rapping seriously. Mayers had started rapping at age 8, grew up admiring Harlem-based rap group The Diplomats, and also lists among his influences Three 6 Mafia, Mobb Deep, Wu-Tang Clan, UGK, Run DMC and Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. After living in a shelter with his mother, and elsewhere around Manhattan, Mayers moved to Elmwood Park, New Jersey.
Caroline Leaf (born August 12, 1946 in Seattle, Washington) is a Canadian-American filmmaker and animator.
Leaf made her first film, Sand, or Peter and the Wolf, in 1968 at Harvard University. The short was made by dumping sand on a light box and manipulating the textures frame-by-frame.
Her second film, Orfeo (1972), had her painting directly on glass under the camera. Later that year she was invited to join the National Film Board of Canada's English Animation Studio.
She mixed paint with glycerine to produce The Street, adapted from the short story of the same name by Mordechai Richler, which was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film at the 49th Academy Awards.
From 1981 until 1986 she worked on various live action documentary films. In 1986 she produced her first animation in nearly a decade by scratching on 70mm color film and reshooting it on 35mm. "Two Sisters" (1990) won the award for best short film at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival in 1991. In 2004 she co-directed "Suite for freedom" (her part was called "Slavery"). It was included in the Animation Show of Shows in 2004.
Ryan David Leaf (born May 15, 1976) is a former American football player who was a quarterback in the National Football League (NFL) for four seasons. He played for the San Diego Chargers and the Dallas Cowboys between 1998 and 2001, and also spent time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Seattle Seahawks.
Leaf had a successful college career at Washington State University, where he was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy after his junior year. He was selected as the second overall pick in the 1998 NFL Draft, but his career was short and interrupted by injuries. An episode of NFL Top 10 ranked him as the No. 1 "draft bust" in NFL history.
After having led his high school, Charles M. Russell High School, to the 1992 Montana state title, Leaf played college football at Washington State University. He played in 32 games for the Cougars, starting 24 of them. In his junior year, he averaged 330.6 yards passing per game and threw for a then Pac-10 conference record 33 touchdowns. He also helped the Cougars defeat the Washington Huskies 41-35 for the first time in Husky Stadium since 1985. Leaf ended the school's 67-year Rose Bowl drought and helped bring the Cougars their first Pac-10 championship in school history. Despite a strong early showing by Leaf in the Rose Bowl, the Cougars were defeated 21-16 by the eventual national champion Michigan Wolverines. In 2011, Leaf published a memoir of this season, entitled 596 Switch.[citation needed]

If you fail to see a problem,
(Which I find hard to believe)
Or if you're hanging on from branches
Licking honey from the leaves you say
"The hopelessness of living, the childishness of suicide"
But there's a call to love my brother
That can never be destroyed however much you talk,
However well you talk you make a certain sense
It's still only stupid talk, however much I strut around,
However loud I sing the Shining One inside me won't say anything,
Oh, to want one thing!
Purity of heart is to want one thing.
You'll remind me that I said you were
A quiet bed in all my noise to rest
Well I was charming you at best.
And you remember, dear, when I said
"My coming here was like a terrible fall!"
As we crept like thieves along your bedroom hall
I'd come down and touch your eyelids,
But if you stay up too late I'll throw you back into the cupboard
With the chipped and dirty plates
Like the carnival game with the bottleneck and rubber ring,
Even if you win, even then you don't win.
I never was able to say
Just how I was feeling.
Can't let you see me in this state.
Everything is packed. I'm leaving.
Do you really wanna know?
Do you really?
I feel lost.
I feel boring.
I've been caught sleeping all morning.
Pull down the shades,
I'd rather stay inside all day.
My own thoughts are in my way.
I'd rather sleep than have to say:
I feel lost.
I feel boring.
I've been caught sleeping all morning.
I feel scared of knowing
I'm just a single leaf in the wind blowing.
Do you really wanna know?
Do you really wanna know?
Do you really wanna know?
If you fail to see a problem,
(Which I find hard to believe)
Or if you're hanging on from branches
Licking honey from the leaves you say

lookin over i can see you for free and
i think you could be
some kind of four-leaf clover
growin undiscovered inside me
merry faces in your favorite crowd
so now you wanna go
while i wished it were the other one
laughs aloud just to let me know
i can't deny that i'll be there
until i find that it's free there
well maybe someday you'll smile
instead of turnin the other way
and you'll realize this is the place you need
and you're gonna stay
lookin over my shoulder is the only way
i'll ever see you
when you hover yourself high up above me
just lookin down
now and then i'll see you here and there
but now you're everywhere
you will have to decide that if you walk on by
or return your stare
lookin over my shoulder is the only way
i'll ever see you
when you hover yourself high up above me
just lookin down
i can't deny that i'll be there
There was a song,
I almost caught it on the way down.
A leaf in your hand, reaching,
reaching out.
You can press the leaf, and hold it forever.
Or you can leave it in the weeds.
Empty pages in a journal can tell more than any words
were able
when the leaf falls out on the table
It's all right today there's a new ray of light
creeping through my window pane
See I don't try no more to get in or to fit in
that's the same old song
I put a new record on, it's a 45
i'm letting it spin my life eh!
This is for a brand new heart and a brand new start
this is for oh my god I finally woke up
This is for dreams in motion and swinning wheels of fortune
here's to my new song i'm singing loud
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa
Open up my heart, and the wind will take
all my silly sorrows away
See the world as new, discover it all again
unwrap the world like a birthday present yeah
Take the long way home with my headphones on
different streets have different songs
but hé, I'm a dreamer, to all you non believers
here's to my new song I'm singing loud
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa.(i'm singing loud)
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa (2x)
I'm starting again
Well I'm starting again (2)
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
pa pa pa pa pa pa (5x)
padadapapapapa pa pa pa pa pa pa
Padadapapapapa pa pa pa pa pa pa
This is my new song, one life making meaningfull
July July July, the apple of my eye
I'm walking on the curbside singing
I pass a swimming pool as the blue water gives cool
To a couple of bathing suits, as I continue
some clouds are playing chess, as the leaves are getting blessed,
as the breeze strikes down like a walking bass line
I'm walking on this yellow brick street,
my heartbeat fills me in with the rhythm I need
I'm stepping on steps and every step's a melody
it's like walking on piano keys,
Well in come my bumblebee friends with the second and third harmony
Zz zzz zz zzz
Zz zzz zz
Zz zzz zz zzz
Zz zzz zz
The the the music is everywhere,
so come and take a peak at the brand new air
Only colored by a mind so free,
otherwise you cannot see
That this is music, music that I'm walking on
no dreams, music, real song
Pure lemonade tactics
the strawberry-five are here to free your mind
So let me tell you to come out, and hear this song
so we can all just get along,
swing open the front door and grab a hat, and
so unplanned, the world turns to a marching band
we'll have strings and slide trombones
the hillside gives us steady
Put the the the drum roll right in place,
we'll walk by the ways of the base
we're keeping it, we're keeping it so damn fine
living by the light of July
Well it's the L.E.A.F we're keeping it,
we're keeping it, we're keeping it fresh
Well it's the L.E.A.F we're keeping it,
we're keeping it, we're keeping it fresh
Well it's the L.E.A.F we're keeping it,
we're keeping it, we're keeping it fresh
Well it's the L.E.A.F we're keeping it,
we're keeping it, we're keeping it,
we're keeping it, we're keeping it,
we're keeping it, we're keeping it,
we're keeping it, we're keeping it, we're keeping it fresh
Your heart is your own little inside joke so guard it
The moon is just a little bed light above your head yeah
So you can go to sleep and some sheep
Where the grass is green
Don't you worry about it all
When they try to get you down just think of me
It's in the ABC
of growing up
The world is one big jungle gym for you to climb in
Your eyes are big colourful marbles
don't you lose them now
So you can go to sleep and some sheep
where the grass is green
Don't you worry about it all
When they try to get you down just think of me
It's in the ABC... of growing up
Ohoh
Of growing up, yeah
Take a little time, take a piece of mind,
Look around you and feel the life in you
Feel it in me, take a deep breath
Feel the music
To all my people on the left, keep on
All my people on the right also
All my people in the front and in the back
you know where it's at
Memorise to never forget
Music is all we got
Music is all we got
Music is all we got
Music is all we got
This for the people who we love to love
and keep close to the hearts now
All our friends we level with and never leave our thoughts we,
shine our minds like a day in the summertime
Like Bob Marley yeah everything will be all right
Keep the future bright and keep laughing
unmasking the face of the world while we at it
With music we're sharing,
we got together in service of rocking crowds truth, our passion
But understand it's all about being
Cause it's really all of you that give us meaning (meaning)
You refuel us with the spirit to grow
It's leafmusic bless your soul
Music is all we got
Music is all we got
Music is all we got
Music is all we got
Hey baby haven't you noticed me
I've been walking around and pulling your sleeve
like all day now
You're a busy little bee but I'm hanging on
the end of your sweater till you stop and tell me
How you took a dive into my pool of life and left
the water with circles
Now I'm only guessing for signs
Your shirt should just smell like me, but now it's only you
yeah you got some explaining to do so won't you.
Clear my mind, did you have a butterfly fight?
Or is it someone new under you skin, come on and let me in.
'Cause this silent break is keeping me awake during the day, hey hey
are you listening to a single word I say?
Hide and seek, when love is a child hiding on the street
Cops and robbers, my undercover lover
Can't you see, that your stakeout is putting the take out on me
You see me counting down again
You see me counting down
Refill my cup or leave me half empty
‘Cause right now your spoon stirs me dizzy
dizzy as I am I'm still real friendly, friendly
So you wanna be like neighbours and chat?
Do you wanna be like brothers and sisters and that?
Well I don't think that's really clever
'cause friends forever is like never together
Hey how about this forecast? Oh ain't the weather great!
No no no no wait, were in the wrong debate
'Cause this conversation's getting old and totally misplaced
Hey hey, you're not listening to a single word I say
Hide and seek, when love is a child hiding on the street
Cops and robbers, my undercover lover
Can't you see, that your stakeout is putting the take out on me
You see me counting down again
9 8 7 6, your position is still to fix, and my eyes are closed again
5 4 3 and 2 I'm almost coming after you
1 and a half, oh baby do the math
1 zero here we go, I know you're not far
Come out wherever you are
Come out wherever you are
Do the hide and, hide and seek
Hide and, hide and seek
Hide and, hide and seek
Oh baby come and find me
Hide and, hide and seek
Hide and, hide and seek
Hide and, hide and seek
Oh baby come and find me
Hide and, hide and seek
Hide and, hide and seek
Hide and, hide and seek
Is it true what they say
about you and her
Is it true
about you and her
what is this rumour I hear about
what is this rumour that's been spreading
spreading all over town
Is it true what they say
about you and her
If this turns out to be true
I should have heard of that, heard of that from you
Not gonna be your fool for long
I still know my right from wrong
I don't want to lose control
But lately I've been feelin'
So unusual
Baby you can choose to go
But then I realize I don't want you anymore
I don't want to lose control
But lately I've been feelin'
So unusual
Baby you can choose to go
But then I realize I don't want you anymore
They say they saw you there last night
They say you were coming in
With your arms around her
I don't wanna picture this
But if this turns out to be true
I should have heard of that, heard of that from you
Not gonna be your fool for long
I still know my right from wrong
I don't wanna lose control
But lately I've been feelin'
So unusual
Baby, you can choose to go
But then I realize I don't want you anymore
I don't want to lose control
But lately I've been feelin'
So unusual
Baby you can choose to go
But then I realize I don't want you anymore
I don't wanna lose control
But lately I've been feelin'
So unusual
Baby, you can choose to go
But then I realize I don't want you anymore
I don't want to lose control
But lately I've been feelin'
So unusual
Baby you can choose to go
If I'd run, I would get myself a nice warm place under the sun
If I knew, just a little loophole I would squeeze myself right through
Escape a little while oh I'll be back in town
But right now it feels so good to leave it all behind
Call it spontaneous or improve of the heart
Or just a little thought that slipped through the security off me
There'll be no suitcases just a slight smile on my lips
that indicates a sense of being free
I got my ticket now and that's really all I need
Come on come on keep it moving get on the train
It's boarding time on every little impulse of the brain
Call it madness to sing a song for the restless
But if you wanna change your mind, join the ride, ride
I keep it moving while others don't
They just keep back and settle like a stone
and they're comfortable while I am like oooohweee no
This stone's for rolling there's way to many do's in my don'ts
So hold the phone I'm jumping on your line, got digits dancing in my mind
Oh there I go again, it's so hard
not to answer to this tingling in my brain
Oh you won't get this unless you feel the same
Incoming it's me
I got your ticket now and that's really all you need
Come on come on keep it moving get on the train
It's boarding time on every little impulse of the brain
Call it madness to sing a song for the restless
But if you wanna change your mind, join the ride, ride
Hold up man! There are a couple things I need to say
Can we sit down over coffee,
'cause this puzzles heart needs to put the pieces into place
Ok, suiter number 2 please tell me
Breakfast ain't love is it?
(Oh no no no no no no)
And meeting your moms isn't?
(Oh no no no no no no)
And you being wrong can't be right?
You know I get this every time
Fast is my love
My charm in on request
Tonight again I fall, into unnecessary love
My heart must be flawed, it's time to sleep it off
Somebody tell me whats going on
I guess all that glitter just ain't gold
Right now I need a man like a fish needs a bicycle
At least for now, cause I am tired
Of this thinking about thinking
Thinking to myself that I should, stop
But I continue on, speeding through the left lanes of your heart
Making sure, the next exit I am getting off
And you don't know what I'm thinking of.
Fast is my love
My charm in on request
Tonight again I fall, into unnecessary love
My heart must be flawed, it's time to sleep it off
Somebody tell me whats going on
Have you heard?
Of that four lettered word
You can make it, break it, try to fake it
But nothing's ever definitely positive
Well have you seen, it lately
It's the L.O.V.E Cupid misses me
Again and again and again
Fast is my love
My charm in on request
Tonight again I fall, into unnecessary love
My heart must be flawed,
everybody's got a little something up their sleeve but I don't
I hold nothing behind, I don't think I mind at all
I'm happy in my harbour just watching the tide roll away
Open up a can of soda say goodbye this place, I'm on my way
Leave me to be like the bees and the birds
I'm on a swing near the oaktree swinging my words
and singing a verse, no lullaby but some type of guy
at the highest point I'm lettin myself fly
Cause I love to live life love and live every time
How about this life, ain't it something?
When the good times guide you through this candy state of mind
life is sweet don't let it get to the bitter of you
I flew off the swing now I'm back on my toes again
Continue my travelling unravelling things
let the wind carry my worries
I got nothing on my mind
But this love song for no one
Baby hold on
The day is yet to come until then
Leave me to be like the bees and the birds
I'm driving off to the coast where the sunshine's first
with a million beams at every drop of a heart
If you think life's a bitch I'ma send you a postcard
life loves to be lived so I live everytime
how about this life ain't it running?
so don't be legging behind put your shoes on and step outside
Life is sweet
but don't overdo it
it's still what you make of it
oh yeah we're living this life
oh yeah we're living this life
oh yeah we're living this
and everybody's got a little something to give
Tuesday morning I got up and thought
well today will be the day that I check myself
I had my checklist ready, even skipped my cup of coffee
'cause I had to do all the above
see now point one telephone bill,
two I need insurance, three I need a job
point four I need to hurry up 'cause the clock doesn't run on sympathy
on the contrary man, he's like grinning at me.
So I opened up the bill and what do I see?
Three fat printed digits smiling at me,
hihi, oh my God now I'm all shook up
I'm on the phone asking them if they misplaced the dot,
not? ooh I gotta go now Miss
She's like: wait a minute mane, aren't you gonna pay for this, right
So she puts me on some monthly-pay-arrangements
Have a lovely day! Yeah, whatever
I got no job (it's a motherfucker)
No money (it's a motherfucker)
I got nothing (it's a motherfucker)
Well, we need to survive this life my brother
Having no hopes (it's a motherfucker)
Without dreams (it's a motherfucker)
So it seems (it's a motherfucker)
We need to take care of one another
Ooh, Leaf is rocking the show
I arrived at point two just before luch
right after the punch in my stomach, oef
forget about it, 'cause lately I've been walking the streets dodging traffic
this uninsured life is pretty hectic
What if a pick up truck mistakes me for a parking lot
the officer mistakes me for a thief and now my leg got shot
The hospital won't take me and I'm crying like a baby
this doesn't work well with the ladies
I got no job (it's a motherfucker)
No money (it's a motherfucker)
I got nothing (it's a motherfucker)
Well, we need to survive this life my brother
Having no hopes (it's a motherfucker)
Without dreams (it's a motherfucker)
So it seems (it's a motherfucker)
We need to take care of one another
Could somebody please pass me a j-o-b?
So I'm standing in line at the temp agency
They ask me what do I do, I said I'm a great musician
Well that doesn't really match up with this cleaning position
It's a minimum wage job, better bring your own mob
make sure you'll be there around seven o'clock sharp
next morning I woke up
Ooh shit! Eight o'clock
Well, I went anyway and got fired on the spot
Now I can't believe this is happening to me
I didn't even make it passed point three, damn
I got no job (it's a motherfucker)
No money (it's a motherfucker)
I got nothing (it's a motherfucker)
Well, we need to survive this life my brother
Having no hopes (it's a motherfucker)
Without dreams (it's a motherfucker)
Sometimes I feel like wonderwoman
kickin' ass and raising thunder
Burnin' up my fuels
Fighting crime
Kick a bad guy down the garbage can
Get on a date with superman, fly the sky, just because I can
I'll be so pretty, never feel shitty
‘cause I'm a well respected lady superhero in the city
Yes I'll be doin' fine
But then I fall off, my cloud again
Brings me back to who I really am
I'm just little old me
Dealing with the same old things
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Why's my life so boring
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
There's gotta be a little bit more in store for me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Why's my life so boring
Oh, I'm up for a little bit more
Just a little somethin'
Now why can't I be just an ordinary girl
Bread and cheese for breakfast every day
Show my cookin' skills off, cause I'm in love with my oven glove
Give me something to dust off! I'm going crazy!
Never lazy, Oh life is wonderful
With coffee two sugars and the bold and the beautiful
I'm still single, but I feel ditched
I can't believe Ridge really married that bitch
This ordinary life is a waste
And I'll never own a red cape
But still my mind can fly and bake you a perfect apple-pie!
I'm just little old me
Dealing with the same older things!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Why's my life so boring
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
There's gotta be a little bit more in store for me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Why's my life so boring
Oh I'm up for a little bit more!
Well I'm a, twisted sistah, but sweet I remain
In this crazy inner world is where I spend most days
Trying' to amplify my heart and find a brain that works
I'm calling on various characters
to make this crazy boring bubble burst
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Are we meant to be sheep in the heard!?
That's my word, and the trouble I find
The world ain't so dull man
It's all in our mind,
Where we're all little old me's
Dealing with the same old things!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Why's my life so boring
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
There's gotta be a little bit more in store for me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Why's my life so boring
Oh, I'm up for a little bit
Oh give me just a little bit!
Baby, what's my name?
Baby, what's my name?
Now you laying with a motherfucker thinking that he got it
Digging in my wallet'
And a turquoise sidekick, tugging my side chick
The minute she know she a fly bitch
I never got used to the climate, I never got used to a wardrobe
I never got used to a bracelet, precious paintings on this whore's wall
Andy Warhol, light the coco, 'cause when I hop out of that four door
These bitches be taking my photo
I never got no money
It's cool 'cause he's my daddy
Bringing in the paper like I'm made off in the Gotty
Hopped off my whip wearing Balenciaga
Marjela for the weekdays, for the rest I'm wearing Prada
Every time I need him, he come through
Know just how I like it so he do it how we do
Don't ask no silly question 'cause he messed away the mood
Ask me if I like the way he hit it, I said true
Oh, yeah, come let me be your sugar mama
Right now, come let me be your sugar mama
Oh yeah, if you give it how I wanna
And I, I can be your sugar mama
Cash, I got that

Any man just wants to be needed
I can need you all of my life
And you'll never know 'till you're alone
How it feels to have love on your side
So when you go into the night, I will be there
Your brightest star
I'll look you in the eye, follow you home
Surround you
It's a light you've never known, I will be there
Lighter than a leaf in your pocket
I'll be the air
And when you smile, I will be there
And when you cry, I will be there
Lighter than a leaf in your pocket, I'll be the air
Scoop me up and call me a lady
I've been waiting all of my life
This love is for sure, forever more
Just as long as your hand is in mine
So when you go into a storm, I will be there
Protect you
I will shoot the wave down, I'll come around
Surround you
It's a light I've never shown, I will be there
Lighter than a leaf in your pocket
I'll be the air
And when you smile, I will be there
And when you cry, I will be there
Lighter than a leaf in your pocket, I'll be the air
lighter than a leaf in your pocket
lighter than a leaf in your pocket
Get down to it
It’s thursdaynight and I’m watching my boys
Tryin’ to break the air with noise
I’ve got a bottle of wine
And my righthand is on the mic-stand
I’m singing to them walls again
I know there not listening but They became my audience
Oeh, the way they cheer is filling up this atmosphere
And the the music just stops
Right from the top, again, my friends
First we have a joke or two
Three or four makes the perfect five
This alcoholic family is ill
Refill my cup and get quite serious how did we ever get
so ridiculous
So come on, and strap that guitar on
‘cause we’re playing that song now
When we get down to it
Hardly any beer left, but we get down to it
When we get down to it, see these empty pockets
Man we get down to it
So if you can lend us some money
Feel free
Now the clock strikes Friday
This evenings looking up
The door opens and what do we see
A drunken sailor with Bacardi-coke behaviour
Points out that it’s time to leave
So big up to our Jewish charm, the pride of the north
side whistles a song
Curly don’t forget to put you head back on
Now give us a hug mister melody, let’s all sit down at
the nearest bar seats
And right there stops my memory
When we get down to it
The glass is always half full
When we get down to it,
Drunk and beautiful
Yeah we get down to it
I am talking to myself about her
And it seems so that I definitely doubt her.
She's so fine but then again I've been knowing her for a long long time
Which makes it hard for me to move.
Well, she's a butterfly babe with bubblegum proof:
She never loses her flavour.
And I might just tell her what's on my mind
But I'm not sure if she will return the favour.
So I just order some courage at the bar
Walk up to her and oh my god what will I say.
Oh no no no no no you can't
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
But you can't get get get get with her
Well I don't know oh-oh like
Oh no no no no no you can't
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
But you can't get get get get with her
Well I don't know, I don't know.
Tiptoe through the grass on a Sunday morning.
My thoughts blossom cause I'm in bloom about him.
But he don't know that I melt like snow when he shines on me I'm over the rainbow
But I can't tell him cause I'm afraid he'll go
So we just measure up the weather as we stroll through the park,
Maybe it's more easy when it's dark,
But we're laughing the romance away again, singing
(Duet, both singers:)
Oh no no no no no you can't
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
But you can't get get get get with him/her
Well I don't know oh-oh like
Oh no no no no no you can't
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
But you can't get get get get with him/her
The City
The world is one big strawberry to me
You can see me in the sun
Layin’ in the apple green sea
I made myself a home covered with leaves
And the air that I breath
Is givin’ to me by trees
In the morning when I wake up
No need to put on my makeup
Natural lady!
This is my island in the sun, the perfect place to run
The city, everybody’s busy
I need a little space a rest from here
The city so busy and silly
But today, I’m in the sun
The world is one big air balloon to me
See me jump out of the sky
At about 2.000 feet
No need to worry ‘bout, my own 2 feet
Cause the streets that we walk on
Are made of trampolines
In the evening when I go out
To my favorite castle in the clouds
I get so crazy
We are old before we see
The place we really want to be
Oh babe, drop your life and come away with me
The city, everybody’s busy
I need a little space a rest from here
The city so busy and silly
