Big brown beautiful gnarly old tree
Won't you take this burden away from me
I've been carrying it for oh so long
It's been hanging round my shoulders and chocking my song



And the birds keep singing
And the fish keep swimming
And the world keeps spinning round without me

Big blue beautiful gnarly old sea
Won't you wash this feeling away from me
With your healing salts and lullaby waves
Won't your rock me in your ocean arms and label me saved

Cos the birds keep singing
And the fish keep swimming
And the world keeps spinning round without me

Where is the light switch
So I can flick it on, it on?

Big gold beautiful shiny old star
Won't you send a little magic down from up where you are
I've been sitting here for oh so long
And you look like the kind of star I could wish upon

The birds keep singing
The fish keep swimming
And the world keeps spinning round without me
