A New Life (Frances/Aufie)

Having lived on the leaves of a single tree Donny caterpillar was having a miraculous day He was namely becoming a butterfly, you see? And not just anywhere: he was born in the USA From a twig hung the half empty cocoon As the tiny life struggled to emerge all shy Gone were his greedy leaf eating days Donny unfolded his wings, ready to fly He flew and saw a being with an orange face; it was making a loud and thunderous noise. The creature actually belonged to the human race. Donny will not easily forget such an awful voice. Then the man disappeared as if eaten by the screen And an amazing field of poppies suddenly appeared Where a lady lay smiling blowing bubbles in the air Donny flew against the glass wishing he was there Images on screen were changing, furious and fast. So many things came on, even news with a twist; it made Donny dizzy, because nothing would last Soon he was on the couch of a butterfly psychologist Dr Bloom took one look at poor Donny You've been bamboozled by very bad TV The prognosis is rather a natural one Meet some like minded bugs and go have fun With Dr. Bloom's advice to stay far from TVs Donny got up from the couch and flew away Back to the fields, the flowers and the trees: With his friends continuing his first butterfly-day You'll find Donny blissfully happy Flying around in perfect health Life is sometimes not a bed of roses So choose a place you can be yourself
