Sage:
This flower has a tale to tell
If you just let him speak
Oh, he tells stories very well
He told me a great one last week, ha ha!
But if you jump in with a story of yours
About the championship game
And how you made the big play
Then you will never hear
What the flower has to say
You've got to stop and listen
Listen to the bird who sings
Stop and listen
And you'll hear amazing things
Cuz when you listen
You hear things that may astound you
So stop
And listen to the world around you
Basil:
Here's a frog who hopped on by
With a hippity hop
Lily:
He hopped on by to just say hi
Basil:
How nice of this frog to stop
Lily:
But if you jump in with a tale of your own
Basil:
That is all about you
Lily:
Like a tale-telling hog
Basil:
Then you will never learn
What it's like to be a frog
Basil and Lily:
You've got to stop and listen
Lily:
Listen with a careful ear
Basil and Lily:
Stop and listen
Basil:
You'll be amazed at the things you can hear
Basil and Lily:
Cuz when you listen
You hear things that may astound you
So stop
And listen to the world around you
Lily:
There are so many stories we can tell
Basil:
Like, "Once upon a time, there was me, just me!"
Lily:
We think that our stories are really swell
Basil:
"I lived happily ever after! Hooray! Whoopee!"
Sage:
Telling those stories seems like fun
But when you tell 'em, you can't hear anyone
So take a deep breath
And listen to the world
Sage, Basil and Lily:
You've got to stop and listen
Sage:
Give other noises a turn
Sage, Basil and Lily:
Stop and listen
Basil:
You'll be amazed at the things you can learn
Sage, Basil and Lily:
Cuz when you listen
You hear things that may astound you
So stop
And listen to the world around you
Sage:
Now I know that it's tough
That you ran out of words
But now you can hear
All the flowers and birds
Frog:
And frogs.
Sage:
And frogs.
So stop!
And listen to the world around you
Sage, Basil and Lily:
Listen to the world around you
Frog:
Listen to the world around you
Sage:
Everyone listen!
Sage, Basil, Lily and Frog:
You've got to stop and listen
|-|Reprise=
Ginger:
You've got to stop and listen
That's what I learned today
Johnny:
Stop and listen
You'll be amazed what your friends have to say
Johnny, Ginger, Basil and Lily:
Cuz when you listen
You hear things that may astound you
So stop
Ginger:
And listen to the world around you
Johnny, Ginger, Basil and Lily:
You've got to stop and listen
