If You Could Speak

I got out of bed
And came here for adventure
I stepped on a stone on the way
I took off my shoe
And a dog came towards me
Wagging his tail happily

Dog, if you could speak
You'd know what to do
Simply turn around and run
Dog, if you could speak
You'd bury your bone
And you'd show me the way back home

Got out of bed
And I put on my sunsuit
Blue checked shirt and a dress
Nothing was left for a girl in pajamas
No breakfast, no kindness, no game

Girl, if you could speak
You'd know what to do
Age has left a gift with you,
Rent a cheap second-hand crystal ball
I will trust my future to you

I got out of bed when the springs wouldn't have me
fired me up like a gun
Fell into my suit
And I walked out to breakfast
Green leafs and blue sky and sun

Boy, if you could speak
You'd know what to do
You sit and let the world go round
Remember all you saw and tell it back
In the stories when the day is done
Remember all you saw and tell it back
In the stories when the day is done
