What a big new world Is it all this tall? Shelves in the den And the fan blades that spin Seem far away On my hands and knees I can crawl the hall Wide open door To the warm carpet floor Says, "Please, come through" When I'm alone and in my room And lights are low I want some more of all those things That make time go I like the strange and changing Daytime sights and sounds And I like that ev'ning fun When everyone's around In the pots and pans I enjoy myself Food I'll consume If I hold my own spoon In my own way When I'm alone and in my room And lights are low I want some more of all those things That make time go I like the strange and changing Daytime sights and sounds And I like that ev'ning fun When everyone's around Let me laugh with you Toss me high and smile Sleep - what a bore What's the point? What's it for? And why so soon? When I'm alone and in my room And lights are low I want some more of all those things That make time go I like the strange and changing Daytime sights and sounds And I like that ev'ning fun When everyone's around Oh la, la, la, etc What a big new world
