Windsor Davies - Whispering grass
You promised me, green grass
Not to tell what you heard
Whispering grass, say
You can't keep your word
Keep your word, sing Lofty
Why do you whisper, green grass?
Why tell the trees what ain't so?
Whispering grass, the trees don't have to know
O no
Why tell them all your secrets?
Who kissed there long ago
Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
Yes, you told them once before
And it's no secret any more
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know
Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
O yes, you told them once before
And it's no secret any more
I will not have gossip in this jungle!
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know
Not to tell what you heard
Whispering grass, say
You can't keep your word
Keep your word, sing Lofty
Why do you whisper, green grass?
Why tell the trees what ain't so?
Whispering grass, the trees don't have to know
O no
Why tell them all your secrets?
Who kissed there long ago
Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
Yes, you told them once before
And it's no secret any more
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know
Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know
Because you told the blabbering trees
O yes, you told them once before
And it's no secret any more
I will not have gossip in this jungle!
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know
