Soak

[Verse 1]

By the cedar bridge where the tall reeds lean

A capybara found the coziest scene

Steam on the water, sun on the stone

He sank to his shoulders and sighed, "I'm home"

[Pre-Chorus]

No rush on the riverbank

No list of things to do

Just little ripples by his nose

And a sky of afternoon blue

[Chorus]

Soak, soak, little capybara

Let the warm spring carry you

Soak, soak, nothing could be finer

With a lily pad and a mountain view

Wiggle your toes, let the whole day wander

Smile like the water is singing too

Soak, soak, little capybara

The best kind of busy is doing what you choose

[Verse 2]

A sparrow came down with a twig in its beak

A frog made a bubble and gave a small squeak

The capybara blinked as the clouds drifted past

Then shared his quiet corner with a duckling at last

[Pre-Chorus]

No hurry through the cattails

No thunder in the trees

Just warm water round his whiskers

And a breeze that smelled of leaves

[Chorus]

Soak, soak, little capybara

Let the warm spring carry you

Soak, soak, nothing could be finer

With a lily pad and a mountain view

Wiggle your toes, let the whole day wander

Smile like the water is singing too

Soak, soak, little capybara

The best kind of busy is doing what you choose

[Bridge]

When the evening paints the rocks a rose

He lifts one paw and says, "Who knows?"

Tomorrow brings its muddy trail

Tonight he rests where the steam clouds sail

[Final Chorus]

Soak, soak, little capybara

Let the warm spring carry you

Soak, soak, nothing could be finer

With a lily pad and a mountain view

Wiggle your toes, let the whole day wander

Smile like the water is singing too

Soak, soak, little capybara

The best kind of busy is doing what you choose

[Outro]

By the cedar bridge, beneath the moon

He hums a happy, sleepy tune
