I've Often Wondered

I've often wondered how it would be 
To have my bed up high in a tree or to have it down low so no one could see 
Under the ground, underneath me 
I wonder how many creatures I'd scare 
If I did have a bed down under there 

Or what about a bed higher than that 
Like one on top of Mount Ararat 
From there I could be as high as a bird and say, "Good night!" so that everyone heard 
Then I'd snuggle down deep in my bed and sleep 
And dream of high things in a sleep so deep 

Or what if my bed was made like a boat 
One made of wood so it could float 
I could sail while asleep to visit new places 
And wake up in a land of smiling faces 
Because they would all have neat beds like me 
In which to travel across the sea 

What would it be like to have a bed on Mars 
Or high in the heavens among the stars 
I'd make my bed on a swift moving comet 
It would pass by the Earth with just me on it 
Then the whole world could see me as I zoomed by 
Blowing kisses goodnight from up in the sky
