328/365 When I Grow Up

I call this The Singing Tree as it always look like it's in full song.

 

"When I Grow Up" is a song from the musical Matilda. Its music and lyrics were written by Tim Minchin. Based on the book Matilda by Roald Dahl. The book Matilda is about bright little girl who is very eager to learn. Eventually, her insensitive parents send her to a school run by Miss (The) Trunchbull. She is a cruel authoritarian that loathes children. Matilda befriends her school teacher, Miss Honey.

 

The book was a favourite book read for my children growing up. I too loved the book and many years later I love the musical and I love this song and the lyrics AND I love Tim Minchin.

Will go to bed late every night.........
