Lyrics

TWEET TARILLA

A girl named Camilla
Who lived in a villa
Heard a bird in her yard sing
Tweet Tarilla
She looked out to see
The bird in her tree
That sang such a sweet Tweet Tweet Tarilla
Tweet Tweet Tweet Tweet Tweet
Tweet Tarilla...........

As soon as Camilla
Went out of her villa
To hear the bird's sing
Tweet Tweet Tarilla,
Fright put her to flight
For she met with the sight
Of a great big enormous Gorilla
Tweet Tweet Tweet Tweet Tweet
Tweet Tarilla..........

Back in went Camilla
And locked up her villa
But the bird kept singing
Tweet Tarilla
That's a wonderful song
Mind if I sing along
Said the great big enormous Gorilla'
Tweet Tweet Tweet Tweet Tweet
Tweet Tarilla.........

Fun stuff here for sure. I'm hardly a kid, but I'm singing "tweet, tweet, tweet..." right along on the first listen! Perfectly youthful and fun vocals and harmonies make this simple tune fit just right. I'm still tweeting.

The voice is very nice and fresh. The rhymes are funny. The melody, and the harmonies, are contagious. I think it's a very nice song. I wish I was a kid so I could sing it without perplexed adults watching me.

The hook was so catchy I am afraid it's gonna go through my head when I try to go to sleep tonight. But that's what you need for a good kid's song - a singable hook that you can't resist singing. Incidentally, this would be a good song for teaching the T sound. I love the Camilla/villa/gorilla rhymes. Original and fun. Your banana beat island instrumentation was terrific; I loved it. This song was FUN FUN FUN!

Great recording quality. Its sugar sweet, I could hear it on a Disney movie.
