ROCKABYE Rockabye baby, in the treetop. Don't you know a treetop Is no safe place to rock? And who put you up there, And your cradle too? Baby, I think someone down here's Got it in for you. FROZEN DREAM I'll take the dream I had last night And put it in my freezer, So someday long and far away When I'm an old grey geezer, I'll take it out and thaw it out, This lovely dream I've frozen, And boil it up and sit me down And dip my old cold toes in. MOON-CATCHIN' NET I've made me a moon-catchin' net, And I'm goin' huntin' tonight, I'll run along swingin' it over my head, And grab for that big ball of light. So tomorrow just look at the sky, And if there's no moon you can bet I've found what I sought and I finally caught The moon in my moon-catchin' net. But if the moon's still shinin' there, Look close underneath and you'll get A clear look at me in the sky swingin' free With a star in my moon-catchin' net. Tell Me Tell me I'm clever, Tell me I'm kind, Tell me I'm talented, Tell me I'm cute, Tell me I'm senstive, Graceful and wise, Tell me I'm perfect -- But tell me the truth.
