Raven and CrowAshley Moffat,
Raven and crow, raven and crow Chorus: And I say, "Blackbird sitting on the telephone line, Raven and crow, raven and crow Raven and crow, raven and crow Raven and crow, raven and crow Raven and crow, raven and crow Raven and crow, raven and crow And I say, "Blackbird sitting on the telephone line, You gave me knowledge, you gave me clues (0) Add Comment • Earl and the Southern Flying SquirrelAshley Moffat, 2005, Second Nature
There once was a boy named Earl Who fell in love with a Flying Squirrel He would sit upon the forest floor And look up, way up, and adore How she twirled her way up to the tippy-top-tops
Of the trees... in her night-time world Then into...thin air, she hurled Her small, fuzzy, furry……body but Earl, he never worried He just smiled and he swooned, and he stared at the moon To catch a glimpse of her silhouette At which point, he would play his clarinet Serenading his beloved Gliding up, way up above it Oh, Zippity-doo-doo-doo, how I love you And the way that you glide Across the night sky... There once was a Flying Squirrel Who fell in love with a boy named…..Earl! (0) Add Comment • Hip Hop HippoAshley Moffat, Second Nature
I'm a hip-hop, hip-hip-O Let's bust-a-rhyme about my life...YO! (x2)
I’m a hip-hop, hip-hip-O From a geographic range called Eethio I'm hip-hop, hip-hip-O Let's bust-a-rhyme about my life....YO!
Hippopotamus amphibious, my old school name But you can call me "hippo", we're one and the same I’m graceful in the water where it’s always fun But I’m clumsy on the land because I weigh a tonne
I sleep all day, but that don’t mean I’m lazy I’m just chillin’ in the water when it’s hot and hazy And when the sun’s settin’ out there in the West, That’s when me and my posse are at our best
I’m a vegetarian, I don’t eat meat Grasses seem to me to be a tasty treat I’m not trying to judge, I ain’t no preacher, I just do not see the need to eat another creature
I’m as big as a Buick, this bull’s got weight! At six years old, I was ready to mate So I’m searchin’ this piece for a cow with style My mama told me, “Stay away from West Nile!”
See these battle scars, they’re from my brothers in the herd We compete for control……..Word! Fighting can be deadly or result in shame, But if you lose, you gotta leave, it’s the name of the game
The battles with my brothers ain’t no threat to me, It’s those humans with big weapons seeking ivory They shoot me for my meat and my precious chops, So spread the good word, protect the hip-hip hop! Protect the hip-hip-hop!

Chorus: Tamarack, Hackmatack, Juniper, and Larch Absolutely naked from November until March It's got CONES! and it's got NEEDLES! But it isn't what it seems... It's decidedly deciduous and never evergreen
Next time you're outside playing and there's a tamarack in sight Why don't you get up close and notice what the needles are like? They grow in little bunches that look just like tiny brooms If you were only a couple inches tall, you could use one to sweep your room!
Now, if there was a party that only softwoods could attend And the invitation said that you could bring along a friend The tamarack would never ask a taller tree to come 'Cause taller trees are too shady, and larches love their sun!
I suppose you all are wondering what "deciduous" really means Well, in the season we call "autumn", you can see the falling leaves The beautiful Red Maple may be the one that we know best But the larches drop their needles too, so they also pass the test! (0) Add Comment •
