1. Explain These Things To Me

Chorus
(I'm walking and pointing at things I see,

I want you to explain these things to me.)
 
Like why do the trees lose their leaves,

And why do I stay away from bumblebees?
 
And I'm running right down my street,

And I stop and wave at all the kids I meet.
 
But some aren't nice right now,

But I'll still be friends with them anyhow.
 
And when I have to cross the street,

Should I look both ways before I move my feet?
 
Chorus
 
And why do the birds fly up high,

If they do then why can't I?
 
And why are your eyes blue and mine are brown,

And that what goes up, must come down?
 
Chorus
 
And why is the sun no longer red,

It must mean its time for me to go to bed.
