Spinning Song Lyrics
Once there was a song
The song yearned to be sung
It was a spinning song
About the king of rock ‘n’ roll
The king was first a young prince
The prince was the best
With his black jelly hair
He crashed onto a stage in Vegas
The king had a queen
The queen’s hair was a stairway
She tended the castle garden
And in the garden planted a tree
The garden tree was a stairway
It was sixteen branches high
On the top branch was a nest
Sing the high cloudy nest
In the nest there was a bird
The bird had a wing
The wing had a feather
Spin the feather and sing the wind
The king in time died
The queen’s heart broke like a vow
And the tree returned to the earth
With the nest and the bird
But the feather spun upward
Upward and upward
Spinning all the weather vanes
And you’re sitting at the kitchen table
Listening to the radio
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
Peace will come
Peace will come
Peace will come in time
A time will come
A time will come
A time will come for us
Peace will come
Peace will come
Peace will come in time
A time will come
A time will come
A time will come for us
The song yearned to be sung
It was a spinning song
About the king of rock ‘n’ roll
The prince was the best
With his black jelly hair
He crashed onto a stage in Vegas
The queen’s hair was a stairway
She tended the castle garden
And in the garden planted a tree
It was sixteen branches high
On the top branch was a nest
Sing the high cloudy nest
The bird had a wing
The wing had a feather
Spin the feather and sing the wind
The queen’s heart broke like a vow
And the tree returned to the earth
With the nest and the bird
Upward and upward
Spinning all the weather vanes
And you’re sitting at the kitchen table
Listening to the radio
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
And I love you
Peace will come
Peace will come in time
A time will come
A time will come for us
Peace will come
Peace will come in time
A time will come
A time will come for us
