Heidi the Cross-Eyed Opossum

Here’s the video for the fun song  Heidi the Cross-Eyed Opossum



This song is about Heidi, a real cross-eyed opossum from North Carolina. She might not have been able to survive well in the wild, and was taken to an animal shelter. From there she went to her new home- in the Leipzig Zoo in Germany.

Lyrics

(I’ll try to get the chords up soon. If you want them before they are up, leave a comment at the bottom of the page and I’ll try to add them for you)
Heidi the cross-eyed opossum
She just can’t seem to uncross them
But we all think she’s awesome
Heidi the cross-eyed opossum

Once a butterfly landed on her nose
Saw her eyes and said look at those
Heidi looked down at the butterfly
who said you couldn’t look cuter even if you try

Heidi’s happy in her home at the zoo
If you were her you’d be happy too
She’s just herself and that’s more than enough
She’s an awesome opossum everybody can love

    Hi Selina. I get a lot of requests to write songs for people or to make songs of their poems, etc. But I just write songs that come to me, that I feel inspired to write, so I have to say no. Sorry. Maybe you can turn it into a song sometime :) ~Bryant
