<b>Hurry! It's Lovely Up Here</b> by <i>Alan Jay Lerner</i><br />ey buds below... up is where to grow

Up with which below can't compare with.

Hurry - it's lovely up here...

Life down a hole takes an awful toll,

What with not a soul there to share with

Hurry - it's lovely up here!

Wake up, bestir yourself, it's time that you disinter yourself

You've got a spot to fill - a pot to fill

And what a gift package of showers, sun and love

You'll be met above everywhere with,

Fondled and sniffed by millions who drift by,

Life here is rosy - if you're a posy

Hurry it's lovely here!

Climb up geranium, it can't be fun subterran-ium

On the exterior, it's cheerier

RSVP peonies, pollinate the breeze,

Make the queen of bees hot as brandy

Come give at least a preview of Easter

Come up and see the good we're giving

Come up and see the grounds for living

Come poke your head out,

Open up and spread out,

Hurry it's lovely here!
