Lyrics

(with Josephine Foster)

Little life, how did you be so lucky
Little life, how did you be so glad
Songs arrive even in the mail box
Songs keep coming even happy to be sad

If you were a bird how would you fly
If you were a butterfly
If you were a penguin under the sea
If you were a bumble bee

Little life, how did you be so lucky
Little life, how did you be so glad
Songs arrive even in the mail box

Songs keep coming even happy to be sad

If you were a bird how would you fly
If you were a butterfly
If you were a penguin under the sea
If you were a person just like me

Oh Little life, how did you be so lucky
Oh Little life, how did you be so glad
Songs arrive even in the mail box
Songs keep coming even happy to be sad
