[verse1]
I should just walk by 
I shouldn't say a word 
But I can see her sadness 
In desperate need of joy

[verse2]
I can't do all that much 
I'm not good for anything 
But maybe I could
Bake some things

[Bridge]
Maybe a spot of tea 
Or some other interesting brew
Something with some kick 
It helps you see things through

[Chorus]
I am spiraling in the canopy 
I just flew over that hole 
Is something suddenly lifting me 
This I would like to know 
Just a spot of kindness 
Just a little cheer 
No room for argument 
Because I'm already here

[verse3]
I just walked right in 
I conjured up a chair 
I just gave her a quick look 
She was giving me a stare

[verse4]
I'm not that easy to blow over 
I'm as tough as I am Fair 
Don't get confused by my attributes 
But this is my natural hair

[Bridge]
She just looked stunned 
As I brought my basket forth 
I set it down between us 
Then I began to sort

[verse5]
First a muffin 
Then a cup of tea 
Followed by Brown elixir 
The drink of mystery

[verse6]
She was slow to catch on 
I think she was still looking for words 
I'm too busy doing things 
I'm usually never heard

[Bridge]
Her hand finally came forward 
She lightly grabbed my arm 
Why are you doing this she asked 
That did cause some alarm

[verse7]
The reason is I'm kind
I love to cook for others 
It gives me peace of mind 
I live with only Brothers

[verse8]
Her face finally softened 
Must have been my words 
I can't be sure of anything 
But maybe I was heard

[Bridge]
She finally took a muffin
But she surely skipped the tea 
She went right for the brown brew
I'm not sure she'll thank me

[Outro]
When I finally woke up 
I had no idea where I was 
Then I heard the anvil 
There had to be a cause

I was laying softly 
In someone else's bed 
My memory is fuzzy 
I think I hit my head

I remember the elixir 
She challenged me to try it 
That was easy enough 
I'm the one who made it

I may have made it strong 
I think there was a mistake 
Although she held her own 
This Brew I couldn't take

I came down the stairs 
And then stood beside her 
When she finally looked at me 
I said goodbye to her

I don't know what she thought 
I took off with the music box 
It was part of my ongoing plot 
I was clever like the fox
