Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I ask a lot
Sometimes I lose the plot
You know, no matter what
A friend is still a friend
[Verse 2]
And if the skies cave in
We'll take it on the chin
Be there through thick and thin
A friend
Is still a friend
[Verse 3]
And if we have a difference
We don't give up the ghost
What we have in common
Is the part which matters most
[Verse 4]
And at our journey's end
I hope all rips can mend
On love you can depend
A friend is still a friend
[Verse 5]
We dig and we burrow
We build and we nest
From sunrise to sunset
We work with our best
[Verse 6]
Our senses are heightened
There's magic occurring
Wherever you turn
Watch the countryside stirring
[Verse 7]
To be messing about
In a boat on the river
With you
Moley with you
Ratty with you
With me as the captain
And you my redoubtable crew
You as the captain and me as the crew
[Verse 8]
I will say this for Toady
He does have adventures, doesn't he?
If you want an adventure
You know I'll back you all the way, Ratty
I don't think so
To be on the river
With my friend Moley
Is all the adventure I shall ever want
Oh, I'm glad, Ratty
I'm so very glad
[Verse 9]
Once you've learned
The river's ways
It's the only thing
We will live out
All our days
Here half a mile downstream of the spring
[Verse 10]
Spring
Season of heart
Season of love
Birds start to sing
Spring
When you have a chill
Spring, the most joyous
Time of the year
[Verse 11]
Where on earth is Toad?
He's clearly too important
To receive his guests
Oh, you know Toad
I expect he's plannin' a big entrance
The question is, how big?
[Verse 12]
Rubbish
Any rubbish?
[Verse 13]
Of course he throws a party
That's bold and brash and crude
Then someone has to pick up
All the scraps of finger food
I think it's rather rude
That he's not here to greet his guests
[Verse 14]
Badger?
What is it?
It sounds like
Well, it is
[Verse 15]
Upon my word
But that's absurd
Something's flying overhead
That's bigger than a bird
[Verse 16]
Oh no
It's mister Toad
Toad
Surely, Mother Nature
Must have crowed
When she made that marvel
Mister Toad
[Verse 17]
Poo-poo
Toad
