The kapok tree, the kapok tree, everybody lives in the kapok tree!

Great big boas like to wrap around the branches,

sloths like to hang and do nothing but munchin’,

and quite a bit of sleepin’!

Toucans sit in the canopy,

while parrots squack and like to repeat:

The kapok tree, the kapok tree, everybody lives in the kapok tree!

Monkeys swing from branch to branch,

as butterflies flitter and fly,

and tree frogs hippety hop all about.

Oh, the kapok tree, the kapok tree,

everybody lives in the kapok tree!
