The Fir Tree

Lyrics: Mélanie Cantin and Rachel Leblanc
Music: Rachel Leblanc
Adaptation : Rachel Leblanc and Mélanie Cantin

I
It was on my first Noël
Fir tree filled with some Christmas bells
Mommy put me 'neath the Christmas tree
And said this tree was for me
A tree for kitty and me

II
Kitty and me all amazed to see
Lovely spheres bobbing in the tree
I want to touch and I try to reach
Looks like candy to me
Looks like candy to me

Chorus
Oh mama! All the colours they smell so sweet
My little heart wants to skip a beat
Oh la la! mummy never saw anything
Did she see? No she never saw
Shiny bells caught in kitty's paws.

III
Through the air flies the silver bell
Dancing over my curly hair
Kitty pounces into the tree
A place where he shouldn't be
A place where he shouldn't be

Chorus
Oh mama! All the colours they smell so sweet
My little heart wants to skip a beat
Oh la la! mummy never saw anything
Did she see? No she never saw
Shiny bells caught in kitty's paws.

IV
Now he tumbles and falls and stumbles
Branches tremble I hear a rumble
When kitty lands in my open hands
What a surprise for me!
Oh! What a surprise for me!

Chorus
Oh mama! All the colours they smell so sweet
My little heart wants to skip a beat
Oh la la! mummy never saw anything
Did she see? No she never saw
Shiny bells caught in kitty's paws.
