The
Forest Is More Than Trees
(From
Under The Hawaiian Sky; sung by all the forest characters)
Music and Lyrics by Roslyn Catracchia
Oh,
the forest is more than trees
More than branches, more than leaves
Just a-flappin' in the breeze
Yes, the forest is more than trees
It plays a very important role
Folks depend on it, you know
So I tell you this with ease
The forest is so much more than only trees!
Providing nourishment and food
Fore many creatures and for plants
The forest cares for everything
Within its vast expanse
From the tiniest of spiders
To the strong Hawaiian hawk
The forest really does its job
With no small talk!
Oh,
the forest is more than trees
More than branches, more than leaves
Just a-flappin' in the breeze
Yes, the forest is more than trees
It plays a very important role
Folks depend on it, you know
So I tell you this with ease
The forest is so much more than only trees!
(Spoken):
Did you know forests are the lungs of the Earth?
Providing lots of oxygen for you to breathe
We're also a home for thousands of plants and creatures
Who depend on us for food and shelter
And we provide you with all kinds of things
Like lumber, paper and medicines
Not only that, but we're a great place to have fun
Where you can go camping and hiking
That's why you have to take care of us
So that we can take care of you!
Oh, the forest is more than trees
More than branches, more than leaves
Just a-flappin' in the breeze
Yes, the forest is more than trees
It plays a very important role
Folks depend on it, you know
So I tell you this with ease
The forest is so much more than only trees!
The forest is so much more than only trees!
