lyrics

How did the moon jump up so high
to take her place in the sparkling sky?
Did all the stars get in their cars
and drive up a rainbow, singing along to the radio?

Someday let's figure it out, just you and me
Let's get to the bottom of this big mystery

Why do the clouds fill up with snow
and not with cotton balls or Cheerios?
What makes the sky blue like an eye,
not yellow like a daffodil sitting sunny on my windowsill?

Someday let's figure it out, just you and me
Let's get to the bottom of this big mystery

Someday let's figure it out, just you and me
Let's get to the bottom of this big mystery
