I like the simple melody and even the lyrics, although I think it's pure 
plagiarism... but very-clever-and-artistically-well-done-plagiarism.

Also a good song for learning English Idioms 
and definitely very good for Children to learn.

Everything At Once ~ Lenka (Lyrics)

by Singer Songwriter: Lenka Kripac

As sly as a fox, as strong as an ox

As fast as a hare, as brave as a bear

As free as a bird, as mean as a word

As quiet as a mouse, as big as a house

[Chorus 1]

All... I wanna be

Oh oh oh... All... I wanna be

Oh oh oh... All... I wanna be

Is everything...

As mean as a wolf, as sharp as a tooth

As deep as a bite, as dark as the night

As sweet as a song, as right as a wrong

As long as a road, as ugly as a toad

As pretty as a picture hanging from a fixture

Strong like a family, strong as I wanna be

Bright as day, as light as play

As hard as nails, as grand as a whale

[Chorus 1]

All... I wanna be

Oh oh oh... All... I wanna be

Oh oh oh... All... I wanna be

Is everything...

[Chorus 2]

Everything at once

Everything at once

Oh... everything at once

As long as the sun, as silly as fun

As cool as a tree, as scary as the sea

As hot as fire, cold as ice

Sweet as sugar and everything nice

As old as time, as straight as a line

As royal as a queen, as buzzed as a bee

As stealth as a tiger, smooth as a glider

Pure as a melody, pure as I wanna be

[Chorus 1] [Chorus 1]

Weddings, Rhymes & Reasons

===.

I find these 2 songs have certain similarities starting with the first line of the both lyrics. 

They were both written about the same time so one may have influenced the other.


Here are the lyrics... scroll down for the video of the songs

The Wedding Song (There Is Love) ~ Paul Stookey ~ wrote in 1969, hit in 1971 (He is now to be among you) He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts Rest assured this troubadour is acting on His part. The union of your spirits, here, has caused Him to remain For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name… [Chorus] …there is Love, there is Love. A man shall leave his mother and a woman leave her home And they shall travel on to where  the two shall be as one. As it was in the beginning is now and till the end Woman draws her life from man and gives it back again. And… [Chorus] [Bridge] Well then what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife? Is it love that brings you here or love that brings you life? And if loving is the answer, then who's the giving for? Do you believe in something that you've never seen before? Oh… [Chorus] Oh the marriage of your spirits here has caused Him to remain For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name… [Chorus]

Rhymes & Reasons ~ John Denver ~ wrote in 1969, hit in 1969  (So you speak to me of sadness) So you speak to me of sadness And the coming of the winter Fear that is within you now It seems to never end And the dreams that have escaped you And the hope that you've forgotten You tell me that you need me now You want to be my friend And you wonder where we're going Where's the rhyme and where's the reason And it's you cannot accept It is here we must begin To seek the wisdom of the children And the graceful way of flowers in the wind [Chorus] For the children and the flowers Are my sisters and my brothers Their laughter and their loveliness Could clear a cloudy day Like the music of the mountains And the colors of the rainbow They're a promise of the future And a blessing for today Though the cities start to crumble And the towers fall around us The sun is slowly fading And its colder than the sea It is written from the desert To the mountains they shall lead us By the hand and by the heart They will comfort you and me In their innocence and trusting They will teach us to be free [Chorus] And the song that I am singing Is a prayer to non believers Come and stand beside us We can find a better way

Happy 'You-Came-Into-the-World' Day

(Happy Birthday on the Seventh of May)

I like this poem so much I'm putting this on my BLOG. As in keeping with my normal practice, everyone is anonymous here. But for those who know, this person's identity will come through once you read the poem. The poem is so personalized... it's beautiful.

The author's identity is also obvious (again, for those who know) coz he always signs-off as AL... but then again, a lot of people sign-off that way too.

Enjoy the poem.

By-the-way, 'You-Came-Into-the-World' = 'Birthday'.... so you know.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Happy 'You-Came-Into-the-World' Day
by Anonymous Lee aka AL

Today is your day.
As you go about today,
Do leave the followings at bay;

Forget about your farms,
For they are not real farms.
Forget about your aquariums,
For they are not real aquariums.

Forget about your cities,
For they are not real cities.
Take a moment and think,
As you need to do your thing.

Go on for a long ride on your scoot.
And don’t give anyone a hoot.
Feel the wind rushing at your face,
As you burn the roads with haste.

Smell the air and also the pollutants.
For they are life’s invaluable irritants.
As you end today’s adventure,
Tomorrow will be another adventure.

Have a blessed birthday.
And keep all worries at bay.

Happy Belated Birthday Wish

Happy Belated Birthday Wish

Birthday wishes sent every year
Renews the wish of happy cheer
When memory fails as we get older
Here's auto renewal to you from wisher.
~ PGA, 2006 Nov 27, Monday

Birthday wishes sent to you every year is a renewal of wishes from the previous year. But when birthday wishes are forgotten, renewal of wishes is automatically granted to offset the problem that comes as the person who wishes grow older. So once again, Happy Belated Birthday.
