If the stars were mine I'd give them all to you
I'd pluck them down right from the sky and leave it only blue
I would never let the sun forget to shine upon your face
So when other would have rain clouds you'd have only sunny days
If the stars were mine I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd put the stars right in a jar and give em all to you
If the birds were mine I'd tell them when to sing
I'd make them sing a sonnet when your telephone would ring
I would put them there inside the square, whenever you went out
So there'd always be sweet music whenever you walk about,
If the birds were mine I'll tell you what I'd do
I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make em sing for you
I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make em sing for you
(Scat)
If the world was mine I'd paint it gold and green
I'd make the oceans orange for a brilliant colour scheme
I would colour all the mountains make the sky forever blue
So the world could be a painting and I'd live inside with you
If the world were mine I'd tell you what I'd do
I'd wrap the world in ribbons and give it all to you
I'd teach the birds such lovely words and make em sing for you
I'd put the stars right in a jar and give em all to you.
