music and lyrics by bob
the king of the leaf people is a cautionary tale...for leaves. it's kinda sad at first, but then the king gets his! leaves everywhere should listen and learn. hopefully this will make sure they WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN!
he was
the king of the leaf people
in a tree
by the mayor's house
the leaf people
lived together
happy all day
and happy all night
no matter
what the weather
but then one day
a king appeared
and shouted orders
left and right
everyone had
jobs to do
so no more
playing with the kite
he was
the king of the leaf people
little boy leaves
and little girl leaves
had to work
so very hard
when they complained
the king got mad
and sent them
to another yard
things were bad
and getting much worse
when there came
another day
the day the leaves
still sing about
when the wind
blew the king away
he was
the king of the leaf people
he was
the king of the leaf people
