The Little Silkworm - Lyric

Once there was a tiny little silkworm, Got so tired he could hardly creep; Wrapped himself within a silken blanket, And peacefully he went to sleep. Came a day when birds were gaily singing, Sun was shining brightly in the sky, Spring was in the air and bells were ringing, The little worm was now a butterfly. Then he flew away And to the countryside Announced with pride, "It's a holiday, Because my work is done, I'll have sum fun!"

Came another day And something happend. While the butterfly was on a spree, Some one came And took the silken blanket, Brought it to the factory. Busy fingers went to work and wove it, Into soft and silky satins rare. What Milady's wearing in June, Must come from some little cocoon. So if it wasn't for the little silkworm, She wouldn't have a thing to wear.
