[Verse 1]
Woke up, sky look hungry
Big white puffs in a breakfast line
If they had tiny bellies
What’s on the menu in their minds?
Do they chew on airplane trails?
Snack on kites that flew too high?
Maybe they sip on steeple tops
With a side of birds passing by (mmm)
[Chorus]
What do clouds eat?
(yeah, what do they eat?)
Do they bite on bits of sunlight, crunching golden heat?
What do clouds eat?
(so sweet, so sweet)
Are they munchin’ on the weather till it’s ready to release?
Tell me what do clouds eat?
(ay, ay)
Stuffed on every little secret that we shout into the breeze
What do clouds eat?
Can’t stop lookin’ at the sky sayin’, “pass a bite to me”
[Verse 2]
Maybe they’re scarfing up gossip
All the drama from the ground
Every “you won’t even believe this”
Floats up, gets gobbled down
Do they slurp spilled soda bubbles
From the kids at recess time?
Or lick roofs clean like ice cream cones
Drippin’ thunder on the side? (uh-huh)
[Chorus]
What do clouds eat?
(yeah, what do they eat?)
Do they bite on bits of sunlight, crunching golden heat?
What do clouds eat?
(so sweet, so sweet)
Are they munchin’ on the weather till it’s ready to release?
Tell me what do clouds eat?
(ay, ay)
Stuffed on every little secret that we shout into the breeze
What do clouds eat?
Can’t stop lookin’ at the sky sayin’, “pass a bite to me”
[Bridge]
Maybe that’s why it rains so hard
When they laugh and cough too loud
Spitting out all the jokes they stole
Right back down on the crowd
So if it pours on your parade
Just grin and tap your feet
You just heard a full-stomach burp
From a cloud that over-ate the week (oh wow)
[Chorus]
What do clouds eat?
(yeah, what do they eat?)
Do they bite on bits of sunlight, crunching golden heat?
What do clouds eat?
(so sweet, so sweet)
Are they munchin’ on the weather till it’s ready to release?
Tell me what do clouds eat?
(ay, ay)
Stuffed on every little secret that we shout into the breeze
What do clouds eat?
I’ll keep singin’ to the sky till it shares a bite with me
