WHY ?

 WHY ?




Mummy why can't I plant my tree 
Where my Prince Charming 
Will Marry me 
WHY ?

Mummy why can't I Plant my tree
Where all the magic fairies dance
To the buzzing of the  honey bees 

WHY?

Mummy why can't I plant my tree
In a land of green 
Where everyone is free                                
WHY ?                                                                                                             

Mummy why can't I plant my tree
Where purple dragons roam and snore 
They'd be so gentle no-one would flee 
WHY ?

Mummy I want to plant my tree
With Daddys spade 
In my red welly boots
