Everything Grows
Listen Now!
Everything Grows
00:00 / 01:23Lyrics
Sing Along Now!
Everything grows in time and in stages
Look closely and you'll see
Every organism, every cell
Is constantly changing from birth to maturity
Every year with the turn of the season
Green leaves turn to gold
The salmon returns from the sea to fresh water
The tree adds a growth ring and so the cycle unfolds
Now the little tadpole becomes a frog
And moves from the water to the land
A cocoon transforms to a butterfly
Metamorphosis is a change so grand
Human beings, like all other mammals
Need time to develop and grow
With food and shelter and lots of care
We learn through life as we go
It's true that everything must change
It's the way of life you know
It's the way things change and grow
Yeah Yeah
Everything Grows
