The Turtles - The Turtles Present the Battle of the Bands

Chicken Little Was Right

Did ya' hear what happened to the world today?
Somebody came and they took it away
Wrapped it up in a wire net
Took it away and it ain't back yet

We were waitin'
We were watchin'
Guess we knew it all along
You were wrong

Put it in a place where dead worlds lie
Underneath a tombstone, ten miles high
We're so young, we're secure
Heaven knows we're absolutely sure
Never grew up but now it's dead
What'd you suppose the epitaph read?
We're so safe, so secure
Heaven knows we surely must endure

We were waitin' (da-da-da, da-da)
We were watchin' (da-da-da, da-da)
Guess we knew it all along
You were wrong
Now it's gone

And we saw the little squirrels
And we watched their thrifty deeds
Who prepared for winter's needs
And we planted seeds (planted lemon seeds)

If that there world comes back again
We'll be there, so let's be friends
Lemons growin' on our tree
Lemonade for you and me

Hey (hey, hey)
Mmhh
