Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She lives in this house over there
Has her world outside it
Scrabbles in the earth with her fingers and her mouth
She's five years old
[Verse 2]
Threads worms on a string
Keeps spiders in her pocket
Collects fly wings in a jar
Scrubs horse flies
And pinches them on a line
[Chorus]
Oh
Oh-ee, oh
Oh
Oh
[Verse 3]
She has one friend, he lives next door
They're listening to the weather
He knows how many freckles she's got
She scratches his beard
[Verse 4]
She's painting huge books
And glues them together
They saw a big raven
It glided down the sky
She touched it
[Chorus]
Oh
Oh-ee, oh
Oh
Oh, ooh, hoo, hoo
[Verse 5]
Today is her birthday
They're smoking cigars
He's got a chain of flowers
And sews a bird in her knickers
[Chorus]
Oh
Oh-ee, oh
Oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 6]
They're they're smoking cigars
They lie in the bathtub
A chain of flowers
