Lyrics
Look at all these leaves
Look at all these leaves
I know, I'll go and rake Toad's yard
And he will have a wonderful surprise (I know)
I will go and rake Frog's yard
And he will have a wonderful surprise
He'll never know (he will never suspect)
Who raked the yard (no one will ever detect)
He will come home
He'll scratch his head
He'll throw his bow
He'll stroke his chin and wonder how, how, how oh my aching back
The work is slow (oh what a tedious chore)
And kinda dull (raking I rather a bore)
But despite a little ache I'm gonna rake, rake, rake, rake, rake-ake-ake
He'll wonder what (what in the world has occurred?)
And when he asked (I will not utter a word)
He'll wonder how, how could this possibly be?
He'll wonder who, he might even think it was me
But if he asks Toad, "Toad was it you?
Not me, well then who?
Who raked up the mess?
I haven't a guest
I haven't even a clue
He-he-he-he-he thought-thought it through
I wish I could see him, see it
He'll do a double tick
It's inconceivable
It's unbelievable
I left the leaves, the leaves have left
And I never lifted a rake
Well this job is done
It's time to walk home
Well, this job is done
It's time to walk home
Hello squirrel, hello Frog
Hello squirrel, hello Toad
Look at the pile of leaves in Toad's yard
Look at the pile of leaves in Frog's yard
Let's mess him up (ha-ha-ha-ha)
He'll never know (make him how happy, how happy he'll be)
He'll never know (almost as happy, almost as happy as me)
He'll never ever, ever know
He'll never ever, ever know
He'll never ever, ever know
I'll rake my leaves tomorrow
