When the firetruck goes by
Everyone moves aside
When the firetruck goes by
It doesn’t matter where you’re going
Move aside…
When the ice cream truck goes by
Everyone runs outside
When the ice cream truck goes by
It doesn’t matter if it’s snowing
Run outside…
Cars and trucks go fast and slowly
Look both ways before you cross
Hold the hand of someone bigger
Ask directions if you’re feeling lost
When the moving van goes by
Everyone waves goodbye
When the moving van goes by
It doesn’t matter if you know them
Wave goodbye…
Cars and trucks…

Sing Along
03:33
|
|||
|
Sometimes when I wake up in the morning
I don't know what the day will bring
The sun could shine or storms rage without warning
And I feel I can't control a thing
Sing along a song of gladness and of sorrow
Make a choice, your voice is free
Let a sound resound, your heart is yours to follow
Sing along a song with me
Sometimes when I am a human being
And my mind is a tangled string
I can't describe in words just what I'm feeling
So I lift my voice and sing
Sing along a song of gladness and of sorrow
Make a choice, your voice is free
Let a sound resound, your heart is yours to follow
Sing along a song with me
Sing along a song no matter what the weather
Make a choice your voice is free
Let a sound resound, how strong we are together
Sing along a song with me

The Ants
00:52
|
|||
|
The ants go digging down until they hit bedrock
And then they climb back up again to tend their fungal crop
'Cause ants invented farming they invented milking too
They like to tickle aphids and drink their sticky goo
They crawl back in their holes and that's the end of this

What's a Worm?
02:33
|
|||
|
The little chick, he eats the worms regurgitated by his mama
He doesn’t know it’s worms that make him grow.
For what’s a worm to a chick who’s never left the nest built by his papa
And what’s a nest to him besides his world?
Like little chicks, we do not get to choose the worms our mothers feed us
Nor do our mothers choose the child to feed
For what’s a mother to a child who has no reason to imagine
This world has anything but love to give?

Daisies
03:22
|
|||
|
At night when I go to my bed
I see the stars shine overhead
They are the little daisies white
That dot the meadow of the night
And often when I’m dreaming so
Across the sky the moon will go
She is a maiden sweet and fair
Who comes to gather daisies there
And in the morn when I arise
There’s not a star left in the sky
She’s picked them all
and dropped them down
To fill the meadows of the town

Doggy in the Diner
02:40
|
|||
|
Doggy in the diner, monkey on the moon
Salmon at the cinema, raven in my room
Hippo on a houseboat, kitty in the car
Snake in the supermarket, goats in my guitar
Doggy in the diner, what’s he doin’ there?
Sippin’ on his coffee, talkin’ to the air
Doggy in the diner, diner, diner, diner, diner.
Bunny in the basement, bulldog at the bar
Minnow in the mailroom, jackal in a jar
Porpoise in the pantry, parrot at the pool
Cheetah at the chowder house, skunk goes to school
Doggy in the diner, waitin’ on a bone
Sippin’ on his milkshake, talkin’ on the phone
Doggy in the diner, diner, diner, diner, diner.
Weasel in the warehouse, tiger in the trunk
Flamingo on the front porch, badger in the bunk
Penguin in the punchbowl, falcon on the phone
Bunting in the bungalow, hummingbird at home
Doggy in the diner, what’s he doin’ there?
Sippin’ on his OJ, talkin’ to the air.

Lullaby Round
02:17
|
|||
|
Moon goes up and down, stars spin round and round
Close your weary, weary eyes and rest.

There is music everywhere
There is music in the air
There is music in the sea
Music inside you and me
There is music in the quiet
I hear music in the noise
Can you hear it in your heart?
There is music in your voice
There is music in the city
There is music in the trees
Music flowing in the water
Music blowing in the breeze
There is music in the sky
There is music in the ground
If you listen very close
You can hear it even now

Buckeye Jim
04:08
|
|||
|
Way up yonder on the moon
A jaybird rests in a silver spoon
Buckeye Jim, you can’t go
Go weave and spin, you can’t go
Buckeye Jim
Way up yonder on a shooting star
A bullfrog jumps, but he jumps too far
Buckeye Jim…
Way up yonder in the sky
A jaybird nests in a bluebird’s eye
Buckeye Jim…
Way down yonder on a hollow log
A red bird dances with a green bullfrog
Buckeye Jim…
