Birdies nest up in the trees
Bees buzz round the hivey
Bunnies burrow 'neath the leaves
Crickets live in ivy
Otter needs his water slide
Dolphin needs the ocean tide
Lion and his mighty pride
Need jungle space to roam
Everybody's got to have a home
You know that everybody's got to have a home
A cozy place that we can call our own
Everybody's got to have a home
Ants and termites live in hills
Squirrels nest in hollows
Spiders play on window sills
Pigs in muddy wallows
In forest lands, the eagle shrieks
Beavers live in dammed up creeks
A mouse in every building squeaks
"Honey, I am home"
Everybody's got to have a home
You know that everybody's got to have a home
A cozy place that we can call our own
Everybody's got to have a home
Look around, hey, everywhere
You'll see some creatures livin'
It's only fair that people share
This planet we've been given
If we can accept the plan
That all things live together
We'll save a place and give some space
To those with fur and feathers
H is for the Houses we people live and die in
O is for the Ocean reefs where fish go swimming by, and
M is for the Marshes where birds can nest without a care
E is for the Earth, the place for burrows and nests and
Caves and grass and bushes and trees and
Rocks and logs and holes and woods and
Mountains and lakes and streams and
Flowers and weeds and grass and anything else —
Living things might live inside... or on top of... or under
Or beside... or in the middle of... or adjacent too...
Everybody's got to have a home
You know that everybody's got to have a home
A cozy place we all can call our own
Everybody's got to have a home
