Elton John I Meant to do my Work Today (a day in the
Country) Lyrics:
I meant to do my work today,
But a brown brown bird sang in the apple tree,

And a butterfly flittered accross the field,
And all the leaves were calling me.

And the Buttercups nodded their smiling heads,
Greeting the bees who came to call,
And I asked the lizard the time of day,

As he sunned himself on a moss-grown wall.

And the wind went sighing over the land,
Tossing the grasses to and fro,
And a rainbow held out its shining hand,
So what could I do but laugh and go?

My mother died when I was born,
I lived with my father on our own,
And we had a cottage where we'd go,
And he died too,
Now I'm alone.
