[Verse 1]
Little yellow queen in a glass-walled throne
Eyes half-closed like she’s made of stone
Cricket on the sand but she just won’t stir
Guess the whole wide world comes walking to her
[Chorus]
Kiwi owns the world
In her tiny tired curl
In her head she’s ten feet tall
Big as a bear just breaking the wall
Kiwi owns the world
Every desert
Every pearl
Fast asleep in a plastic cave
Running wild in the dreams she saved
[Verse 2]
Heat lamp sun on her spotted back
Painted dunes in an endless track
All her little friends in a stomping line
Tail held high as they cross that spine
[Chorus]
Kiwi owns the world
In her tiny tired curl
In her head she’s ten feet tall
Big as a bear just breaking the wall
Kiwi owns the world
Every desert
Every pearl
Fast asleep in a plastic cave
Running wild in the dreams she saved
[Bridge]
[Beat drops
Handclaps and whispers]
Tiptoe toes
Sleepy queen (shh)
Sandstorm crown
Golden sheen (oh yeah)
Tank to canyon
Stone to sky
She blinks once
And the mountains fly
[Chorus]
Kiwi owns the world
In her tiny tired curl
In her head she’s ten feet tall
Big as a bear just breaking the wall
Kiwi owns the world
Every desert
Every pearl
On my shelf in a quiet room
She’s the thunder
She’s the boom
