[00:07.40]Early in the morning I first see the sun
[00:09.49]I say a little prayer for the world
[00:12.36]I hope all the little children live a long long time
[00:14.87]Yes, every little boy and little girl
[00:17.96]I hope they learn to laugh at the way
[00:19.68]Some precious old words do seem to change
[00:22.87]Cause that's what life is all about
[00:24.90]To arrange and rearrange and rearrange
[00:28.56]Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange and rearrange and rearrange
[00:33.45]Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange and rearrange and rearrange
[00:38.46]When I see the first slither of the brand new moon
[00:40.76]I say a little prayer for the world
[00:43.74]I hope all the little children live a long long time
[00:46.17]Yes, every little boy and little girl
[00:48.73]I hope they learn to laugh at the way
[00:50.56]Some precious old words do seem to change
[00:53.46]Cause that's what life is all about
[00:55.94]To arrange and re-arrange and rearrange
[00:59.02]Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange and rearrange and rearrange
[01:03.90]Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange and rearrange and rearrange
[01:08.68]I heard the first yowl of a brand new baby
[01:11.01]And I said a little prayer for the world
[01:13.75]I hope all the little children live a long long time
[01:16.03]Yes, every little boy and little girl
[01:19.45]I hope they learn to laugh at the way

[01:39.14]Early in the mornin' I'm a-gethering the sap
[01:41.36]And I say a little prayer for the maple
[01:43.87]Like old Mama Quad, on the northwest slope
[01:46.12]I'll protect her 'long as I am able
[01:49.07]She gives more sap year after year
[01:51.53]Than any other single tree
[01:53.88]So bring on the pancakes here's to Mama Quad
[01:56.23]May she live for another century
[01:58.71]Oh-wee, oh-wye, may she live for another century
[02:03.72]Oh-wee, oh-wye, may she live for another century
[02:11.25]Sometimes I wake in the middle of the night
[02:13.60]And rub my achin' old eyes
[02:15.98]Is that a voice from inside my head
[02:18.25]Or does it come down from the skies?
[02:20.81]There's a time to laugh but there's a time to weep
[02:23.37]And a time to make a big change
[02:25.33]Wake-up-you-bum-the-time-has-come
[02:27.05]To rearrange and rearrange and rearrange
[02:29.85]Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange and rearrange and rearrange
[02:34.94]Oh-wee, oh-wye, to rearrange and rearrange and rearrange
[02:41.58](I have a philosophical type relative)
[02:44.79](She heard this and said peter I'm not sure I agree with this song)
[02:49.10](We need a more stable world)
[02:52.36](I said maybe you're right, I got a new verse)
[02:55.29]Maybe the biggest change will come
[02:57.69]When we don't have to change much at all
[02:59.94]When maniacs holler, "GROW, GROW, GROW, GROW!"
[03:02.71]We can chose to be small
[03:05.11]The key word may be little
[03:07.33]We only have to change a little bit
[03:09.95]So eat a little food, drink a little drink
[03:12.30]And only have to shit little shit (sing it!)
[03:14.88]Oh-wee, oh-wye, and only have to shit a little shit
[03:19.69]Oh-wee, oh-wye, and only have to shit a little shit
[03:25.62](Kids I didn't hear you singing)
[03:27.73](I know you have been told 'you'll not say that word in this house')
[03:33.04](But you're not in that house now)
[03:35.41](We're trying to save the world)
[03:38.13](You know it's not the words people say that uhhum problem)
[03:41.92](It's the bad things people do)
[03:45.00](And grown-ups are doing most of them, right?)
[03:47.09](So sing it again!)
