Do You Hear the Robins Sing

[Verse 1]
Where you live you say the view is so beautiful
And the Astroturf that's on your lawn stays green the whole year around
And the buildings are so tall they almost reach heaven
But do you ever ever hear the robins sing?

[Chorus]
Do you hear the robins singing in the springtime
While a mockingbird joins in his happy song?
Is all the beauty in your world just artificial things?
Do you ever, ever hear the robins sing?

[Verse 2]
Where I live the butterflies still kiss the roses
And forget-me-nots still grow along the shady lane
And the weeping willow trees still swaying in the breeze
And often I still hear the robins sing

[Chorus]
Do you hear the robins singing in the springtime
While a mockingbird joins in his happy song?
Is all the beauty in your world just artificial things?
Do you ever, ever hear the robins sing?
Do you ever, ever hear the robins sing?
