Once I was a tadpole, squiggling all around
I watched those bigger frogs all hopping on the ground,
I was proud that I could swim and catch bugs all day
I didn’t know I would change in a very mysterious way.
Chorus:
That’s Metamorphosis, just Metamorphosis
That’s how a little tadpole becomes a hopping frog
Or a butterfly grows wings on a creepy, crawling thing
That’s Metamorphosis, just Metamorphosis.
Then one day two bumps appeared on either side of my tail
Two more bumps came later on, on either side of my head
They grew and grew into arms and legs and my tail just disappeared
All these changes came too fast and I felt really weird
But my Mom said, “That’s okay...”
Chorus
Gosh, I found it hard to breathe underwater all day
I swam to the top and took a “GULP”, that seemed an easier way
Then one day I was chasing a fly and I hopped out on the land
I looked at myself and, “LO AND BEHOLD”,
I was a frog so grand! Thanks to....
