The Woodlander Song

Woodlanders, let’s all rejoice!
Dig, dig, dig with me
Raise your claws and raise your voice!
Sing, sing, sing with me

Down and down into the deep
Who knows what we'll find beneath?
Carrots, parsnips, spuds and more
Hidden in the garden store

Born underground, warm and dry in earth and stone
Raised in the dark, the safety of our burrow home
Skin made of iron, steel in our bones
To dig and dig makes us free
Come on siblings sing with me!

I am a bunny and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, diggy, diggy hole
I am a badger and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, digging a hole

The sunlight will not reach this low
Deep, deep in the den
Never seen the blue moon glow
Pandas won't fly so then

Fill a glass and down some mead!
Stuff your bellies at the feast!
Stumble home and fall asleep
Dreaming in our burrow deep

Born underground, grown inside a rocky womb
The earth is our cradle; the burrow shall become our tomb
Face us on the battlefield; you will meet your doom
We do not fear what lies beneath
We can never dig too deep

I am a bun and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, diggy, diggy hole
I am a badger and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, digging a hole

I am a bunny and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, diggy, diggy hole
I am a badger and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, digging a hole

Born underground, warm and dry in earth and stone
Raised in the dark, the safety of our burrow home
Skin made of iron, steel in our bones
To dig and dig makes us free
Come on siblings sing with me!

I’m a dragon-bun and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, diggy, diggy hole
I am a fox and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, digging a hole

I’m a badger bun and I'm digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, diggy, diggy hole
We’re the Woodlanders and we’re digging a hole
Diggy, diggy hole, digging a hole

DIG! DIG! DIG! DIG!   Epilogue:
I am a panda and I'm digging a hole
Planting more bamboo, planting more bamboo
I am a panda and I'm digging a hole
Stashing all the food, stashing the food...   What?! I had to! Come on!
