lyrics

Ms. Watson held her paper cranes
With tethers made from lions' manes
She held so fast and they, so strong
Pulled Ms. Watson up along

They pulled her to the toppest tops
Of clouds made out of unused mops
They pulled her to the mountains steep
Where ivy made of teabags creeps

This holiday went on so long
It had to be put into song
They flew so far with her, it seemed
That nothing seen had yet been dreamed.
