If I appear unkind
But any fool can tell you
It's all in your mind
Down in the meadow
The old lion stirs
Puts his hand 'cross his mouth
He has no use for words
Poor little girl
With your handful of snow
Poor little girl
Had no way to know
And you've got me eating
You've got me eating
You've got me eating
Right out of your hand
I mean you no harm
When I tell you you're blind
Give a sucker an even break
He'll lose it all, every time
The airborne starlings circle
Over the frozen fields
The hollyhocks hang harmlessly
And the old lion yields
And you've got me eating
You've got me eating
You've got me eating
Right out of your hand
Please forgive me If I appear unkind But any fool can tell you It's all in your mind Down in the meadow The old lion stirs Puts his hand 'cross his mouth He has no use for words Poor little girl With your handful of snow Poor little girl Had no way to know And you've got me eating You've got me eating You've got me eating Right out of your hand I mean you no harm When I tell you you're blind Give a sucker an even break He'll lose it all, every time The airborne starlings circle Over the frozen fields The hollyhocks hang harmlessly And the old lion yields And you've got me eating You've got me eating You've got me eating Right out of your hand Explain Request ×
