The Patchwork Song

The Patchwork Song

I’ve got a patchwork blanket
Where my patchwork pals all play
They keep me safe at night and
Keep me happy in the day
When I wake up in the morning
And the day has just begun
I know that they’ll be waiting
And they’ll want to have some fun
Come on, let’s meet the monkey
He likes to fool around
Have you seen the lion?
The loudest roar in town!

Or maybe the chicken
An egg is what she’s planned
And if it’s not that easy
Somebody‘ll lend a hand!

I’ve got a patchwork blanket
Where my patchwork pals all play
They keep me safe at night and
Keep me happy in the day
When I wake up in the morning
And the day has just begun
I know that they’ll be waiting
And they’ll want to have some fun

The elephant’s got the hicc-ups
The fish no water, oh dear!
The sloth is lost for sleep
Who has a good idea?

The rhino’s rather gloomy
The pig’s so fond of mud
And if you’re really stumped - think
of the friends you’ve got!

I’ve got a patchwork blanket
Where my patchwork pals all play
They keep me safe at night and
Keep me happy in the day
When I wake up in the morning
And the day has just begun
I know that they’ll be waiting
And they’ll want to have some fun

Oh yes, and here’s the fox, what
is he up to now?
He wants them all for dinner
And he can show you how ---

No way, that’s a really bad idea!

I’ve got a patchwork blanket
Where my patchwork pals all play
They keep me safe at night and
Keep me happy in the day
When I wake up in the morning
And the day has just begun
I know that they’ll be waiting
And they’ll want to have some fun

My patchwork pals are happy now
There’s nothing more to say
We can wait until tomorrow
For another lovely day
