All the Fountains Sing

All the fountains sing
The roses are crystal blue
Where unicorns rule as kings
A place where dreams come true

The roses are crystal blue
They produce a dreamy scent
A place where dreams come true
Apples that taste like peppermint

They produce a dreamy scent
At the sight of a quarter moon
Apples that taste like peppermint
The elm trees sing at high noon

At the sight of the quarter moon
All the bats turn white
The elm trees sing at high noon
This world is free from fright

All the bats turn white
Where unicorns rules as kings
This world is free from fright
All the fountains sing
