Text by Naomi Shihab Nye
Music lives inside my legs,
It’s coming out when I talk.
There’s a stopper in my arm
that’s not going to let me grow any bigger.
I’ll be like this always, small.
I’ll invite a bee to live in your shoe.
What if you found your shoe
full of honey?
My tongue is the car wash
for the spoon.
Just think-no one has ever seen
inside this peanut before!
When I grow up my old names
will live in the house
where we live now.
I’ll come and visit them.
What does minus mean?
I never want to minus you.
I do and don’t love you -
isn’t that happiness?

Performed this in Bangkok International Choir Festival... miss those times
i love your style. it’s very sophisticated but is also playful and new sounding. i especially love songs with random text, so this is awesome! Goodbye Then is another of my favorites (especially voiced TTBB).
YO! is anyone else here from Listening to NPR's "Planet Money"?
Where could I find the other videos from this set?
