I Have Considered the Lilies

[00:24.11] I have considered the lilies
[00:29.51] They never toil, they only bloom
[00:34.47] They never feel chilly
[00:37.44] Or tired or silly
[00:40.87] And they don't need much room
[00:45.92] I have considered the lilies
[00:51.56] I have considered how they grow
[00:57.06] Tell me, tell me how to be a lily If you know
[01:11.29] 0-o-oh, lilies
[01:14.88] Toil not neither do they spin
[01:18.67] I'm gonna take my working papers
[01:22.58] And turn them in
[01:26.36] I'm handing over my pencil and pen
[01:29.52] I won't be needing my broom again
[01:33.81] I'11 bloom by day
[01:35.86] I'll bloom by night
[01:38.04] And blooming will be my delight!
[01:42.48] Bright tiger lilies
[01:44.36] Still water lilies
[01:46.10] See how they all dilly-dally!
[01:49.33] Look at the day lily
[01:51.39] Lemon lily
[01:52.13] Cala lily
[01:54.48] Or the lovely little lilies of the valley!
[02:00.35] 0-o-oh, lilies
[02:04.33] Toil not, neither do they spin
[02:08.18] I'm gonna take my working papers
[02:12.37] And turn them in
[02:15.86] To be more splendid than Solomon
[02:19.76] I'll walk around wearing the morning sun
[02:23.66] The sun by day
[02:25.85] The moon by night
[02:27.07] And blooming would be my delight!
[02:31.53] It would be fun
[02:33.99] But I'm afraid
[02:35.63] That I would freeze
[02:39.16] King Solomon
[02:41.74] Was not arrayed
[02:43.19] Like one of these
[02:46.83] So-o-o-o, lilies
[02:51.33] I can't afford to dilly-dally!
[02:54.54] I've got to work for my cotton
[02:56.91] Work for my linen
[02:59.18] Linen and damask and challis
[03:02.88] Not like the day lily
[03:04.23] Lemon lily
[03:05.24] Cala lily
[03:07.82] Or the lovely little lilies of the valley
[03:16.31] I have considered the lilies
[03:20.89] I have considered how they grow
[03:26.32] Tell me, tell me how to be a lily
[03:34.13] If you know
[03:39.98]
