Song language: English
Conrad |
| Spent all his days eatin' leaves in the shade |
| And stayed when the night set, too. |
| Conrad the Caterpillar knew life would be a thriller |
| Soon as the threads was spun |
| Wouldn’t stop to play in the Caterpillar Games |
| Till his own webbing game was done. |
| He said, «No, no, I got no time to play, |
| Got a thousand little legs that don’t get me too far in a day, |
| I’m leaving, looks like I can’t stay.» |
| That little pillar he found him a willow |
| Spun in with a craftsmans weave |
| Wound so tightly to protect him from the light |
| And all shapes of water that drop from the leaves |
| Conrad the Caterpillar knew he would be a chiller |
| And he wound it tighter some more |
| Wound it so wide and the ends of his legs got sore. |
| He said, «No, now I can’t feel my feet |
| Just when I thought it was time to take a stroll on down the street |
| I’m leaving, looks like I can’t leave |
| What do you know? |
| What’s all this moving around with inside me? |
| What kind of 'piller could touch the world of a miller |
| Chopping trees to build a new store |
| Nobody sees a lonely bump on the tree |
| Except a lump who’s crying for more |
| Conrad the Caterpillar knew life would be a chiller as he wound it tighter some |
| more |
| Anybody stands in the caterpillar’s place is moving in a standing run |
| He said, «No brother, I just need some room to fly, |
| I spent all of my days just trying to keep dry |
| Oh I’d take a waterfall or a drop from my eye |
| I can’t see nothin' from here anyway, I might as well make room and try |
| Might as well try |
| Oh no, I just need a little room to play |
| Got a thousand little wings and I’m gonna use them all today |
| I’m leaving, it looks like I gotta stay. |
