Wild Wetlands
Mrs. Mosquito she s been fIying all day
looking for blood for the eggs she will lay,
Eggs she will lay. she’s hungry all day,
eggs she will lay. What do mosquitoes say?
She spots the nose of an otter and then zeros in,
but a fish catches her as the otter eats him.
CHORUS
Where the tall grass bends
and the swamp trees stand,
it’s the food and the shelter
of the wild wetlands.
There sits the owl. He’s been sleeping all day.
He waits for the night then he hunts his prey
Hunts his prey, hunts the night away,
hunts his prey. What does the owl say?
With thick wide wings, he silently flies,
looking through darkness with powerful eyes.
Chorus
Here come the ducks.
They’ve been flying all day.
They’re tired and looking
for a place to stay.
A place to stay,
a place to hide away,
a place to stay.
What do the ducks say?
The flock spots water
and circles around’
cupping their wings,
they let the earth
pull them down.
Chorus
Here come the ducks. They’ve been flying all day.
They’re tired and looking for a place to stay.
A place to stay, a place to hide away,
a place to stay. What do the ducks say?
The flock spots water and circles around.
cupping their wings, they let the earth
pull them down.
Chorus
