Armadillo Pt. I

Armadillos, meaning "little armored ones" in Spanish
Are New World placental mammals in the order Cingulata
The Chlamyphoridae and Dasypodidae
Are the only surviving families in the order
Which is part of the superorder Xenarthra
Along with anteaters and sloths
Nine extinct genera and twenty-one extant species of armadillo have been described
Some which are distinguished by the number of bands on their armor
All speciеs are native to the Amеricas
Where they inhabit a variety of different environments

Carry an armor, roll into a ball
Dig down into the ground and crawl so that he'll never fall
Feels like a charmer, but he's a self-harmer
'Cause watching life from a distance is belittling and small
You gotta stand tall
(Armadillos are solitary animals that do not share their burrows with other adults)
Stand together with us all

It takes a village, then it takes a goal
First you raise a child and then you try and rise the soul
Once quite the charmer, now he's a self-harmer
'Cause watching life from a distance is belittling and small
You gotta stand tall
Stand together with us all

And you gotta take a chance
Take a leap of faith and dance

Better wear your heart on your sleeve
'Cause love is all around for you to receive
And it only takes one to dance
But two to tango, so get ready for romance

One love to rule them, one love to find them
One love to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
One love to rule them all, one love to find them
One love for spring and fall with starkness to unblind them
One love to rule them, one love to find them
One love to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
One love to rule them all, one love to find them
One love for spring and fall with starkness to unblind them
One love to rule them, one love to find them
One love to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
One love to rule them all, one love to find them
One love for spring and fall with starkness to unblind them

You gotta take a chance
Take a leap of faith and dance
