Lullaby of the Week goes to:

“If only, if only, the woodpecker sighs, / The bark on the tree was as soft as the skies. / The wolf waits below, hungry and lonely, / And cries to the moon, / if only, if only.”

    Put a straw under baby,
    Your good deed for the day
    Put a straw under baby,
    Keep the splinters away.

    Let the corridors echo,
    As the dark places grow
    Hear Superior's footsteps
    On the landing below.

    There's a place in the orchard
    Where no-one dare go
    The last one who went there
    Turned into a crow.

    Turned into a crow, crow,
    Turned into a crow
    The last one who went there
    Turned into a crow.

    There's a brain in the table,
    There's a heart in the chair
    And they all live in Jesus,
    It's a family affair.
