Somebody Has To

.

Somebody has to plant the seeds,

Somebody has to water the seeds,

Somebody has to paint the flowers to make them colourful,

Someone has to pull the weeds,

Somebody has to wake the flowers,

Somebody has to dance in the grassy fields,

Somebody has to keep the sky blue,

Somebody has to keep the birds singing,

Somebody has to have joyful children,.

Somebody has to keep the grass green,

Somebody has to keep the sun shining,

Somebody has to keep the flowers blooming,

Somebody has to take care of all the animals,

Somebody has to take care of mother nature,

Somebody has to tell mother nature that the rainbow is coming,

Somebody has to love their family,

.
