Of Montreal - Nickee Coco And The Invisible Tree lyrics

Your rating:

Nickee Coco woke up early one Tuesday morning 

and decided to go for a walk in the tomato field behind her house. 

As she was walking along she saw a magnificently tall invisible tree 

and decided to climb up on it. She found the foliage covered branches 

so comfortable that she fell fast asleep. 

She was still asleep when nightfall came 

and her mother became frantic with worry. 

She ran from house to house asking everyone 

she saw if they had seen Nickee or knew where she was. 

Soon the whole town was aware of Nickee's disappearance 

and they immediately started the search.



And so the search began

Everybody was looking for Nickee Coco

They looked on rooftops and in trees in the park

Mr. Temboley even shouted down the well

"Nickee Coco if you are down there give a yell"

but he didn't hear a yell

And so the search went on



Everybody was still looking for Nickee Coco

They asked the stuttering organ grinder in the square

Who said "No no no no

I hav-hav-haven't heard a thi-thing

But the second that I-I-I d-d-do I'll gi-gi-give a ring

Oh-oh-oh the poor poor poor little thing"



All the while Nickee was curled up fast asleep

Very peaceful in her invisible tree

Eating mangos in a dream

And so the search went on



All the while Nickee was curled up fast asleep

No longer peaceful in her invisible tree

Being chased by antelopes in a dream

And so the search went on



They're wondering if they'll ever find Nickee Coco

Nickee's mother asked Miss Colvendom in tears

"Margaret tell me what on earth I've done

To deserve losing my sweet beloved one?

What could I have possibly done?"



Many weeks passed 

and though some people were beginning to lose hope 

they all kept searching and never did Nickee leave their thoughts. 

One day an owl happened to fly past Nickee 

still sleeping soundly up in the invisible tree 

and rushed back to tell the townspeople. 

After an owl translator was called in 

and the owl's wonderful message was understood 

the whole town joyously followed the owl back to the invisible tree 

where little Nickee was still fast asleep. 

They all cheered when they saw her 

and Nickee finally awoke as they lifted her above their heads 

and marched victoriously back into town 

where they had a huge party in honor of her return and sang this song…



Nickee Coco and the Invisible TreeWe love you Nickee Coco

We were so sad when we thought we had lost you

Nickee Coco now we're so happy

because at last

we found you

we found you

we love you
