Hear It
Lyrics
(Chorus)
You need an attitude of gratitude
Quit that saucy bad-itude
Be happy for what each new day brings.
An attitude of gratitude
Will put your heart right in the mood
In the mood for you to dance and sing.
1. When you’re feeling down and out
When you’re feeling blue
When you’re feeling really glum
Here’s what you can do
(Show an…) chorus
2. When your brow is furrowed
And dark clouds hang overhead
When you have to get up but would rather stay in bed
(Chorus)
3. When you’re feeling troubled
And things aren’t going right
Don’t you get discouraged
Just try with all your might
(to have an …) chorus
More Sheep, Less Sleep
1) I was dreaming last night
When I awoke with such a fright
There were five woolly sheep
Frolicking at my feet
They were nipping at my nose
They were licking at my toes
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know
You sheep have got to go.”
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know,
You sheep have got to go!
2) There were four woolly sheep
Rampcin’ at my feet
They were jumping without care
They were nibbling on my hair
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know
You sheep have got to go.”
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know,
You sheep have got to go!
3) There were three woolly sheep
Prancin’ at my feet
Thet were hopping on my knee
They were telling jokes to me
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know
You sheep have got to go.”
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know,
You sheep have got to go!
[spoken}
Laura: Oh Erin! Those sheep are so…baaaaad!
(groan!)
Erin:
Hey Laura?
Laura: Yeah, Erin?
Erin: What do you call a sheep that’s covered in chocolate?
Laura: I don’t know, Erin, what?
Erin: A chocolate baaaa! (hahaha!)
Take it away Duane!
[instrumental break]
4) There were two woolly sheep
Dancing at my feet
They were doin’ the lindy hop
They did not want to stop
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know
You sheep have got to go.”
I said “I’m trying to sleep you know,
You sheep have got to go!
5) There was one woolly sheep
Nudgin’ at my feet
He said “My friends have gone to bed
Can I snuggle you instead?”
So we snuggled in real tight
And then we said good night
So we snuggled in real tight
And then we said good night.
6) So if you find that you can’t sleep
Take my advice and don’t count sheep
Those sheep don’t bother me no more
But let me tell you,
Sheep can snore!
(snoring zzzzzzzz)
Some monsters are fat
Some monsters are thinner
Some monsters eat mac and cheese for their dinner
Some monsters take baths
Some monsters take showers
Some monsters walk in the woods and pick flowers.
Chorus:
Monsters! Monsters!
They have brothers and sisters and moms and dads too!
Monsters! Monsters!
They’re not so different from me and from you!
Some monsters sing
Some monsters dance
Some monsters wear green and orange plaid pants
Some monsters say “Glurp!”
Some monsters say “Eep!”
Some monsters bring your sweet dreams when you sleep
(chorus)
Some monsters run,
Some monsters walk
Some monsters are silent
And some love to talk
Some are named Sally or Isaac or Fred
I think one named Louis lives under my bed!
(chorus)
So if you go walking and monsters you meet
Go on be friendly, do not cross the street
‘Cause monsters have feelings
They could be your friends
We’re out of words now and so this is the end!
Once there was a girl named Sally McPhee
She could be found a fishin’ or a climbin’ a tree
Oh that little Sally loved to be outdoors
Always looking for new places that she could explore
One night before bed she was reading a book
It was about the solar system and that’s all it took
Little Sally jumped up out of bed
Grabbed her box of tools and went out to the shed
Blast off!
She built a rocket
Blast off!
How could you top it?
Blast off!
No one could stop it
With luck on her side and a smile on her face
She took that rocket ship right into outerspace
Off into the sky she took it for a flight
Orbiting the earth on a moon lit night
Sally flew her ship among comets and stars
Stopped in to see the rovers hanging out on Mars
CHORUS
She cruised the Milky Way and saw all kinds of things
Asteroid showers and Saturn’s rings
Furthest from the Sun there was old Neptune
She turned around to see the craters that were on the moon.
CHORUS
She flew it down to earth
Back through the atmosphere
Landed in her backyard as her neighbors stared
She parked her rocket ship and went off to bed
With dreams of stars and comets floating in her head
CHORUS
If you ever need to bring a smile to your lips
Grab a hula hoop and let it swing around your hips
It will make you groove and make you laugh and bring you joy
A hula hoop’s no ordinary toy
The hula hoop I’ll have you know is something fine
Kids have been swinging hula hoops since 1939
Everyone can have a hoop it doesn’t cost a lot
Grab a hula hoop and show me what you’ve got
A hula hoop is really such a simple thing
Who knew you could make magic with a plastic ring
It takes no hands to make it spin round and around
Its like you cast a spell to keep it off the ground
Some people like to do cool things with hula hoops
You spin them round your neck and make a loopty loop
You spin them round your arm and toss them to the sky
Grab a hula hoop go on give it a try
A hula hoop is really such a simple thing
Who knew you could make magic with a plastic ring
It takes no hands to make it spin round and around
Its like you cast a spell to keep it off the ground
So if you are type that is too shy to dance
A hula hoop might make you want to take a chance
So swing your hoop and swirl your hips and start to move
Grab a hula hoop go on and find your groove
A hula hoop is really such a simple thing
Who knew you could make magic with a plastic ring
It takes no hands to make it spin round and around
Its like you cast a spell to keep it off the ground
Here’s a little song
I hope you’ll sing along
It’s about the shapes we know
And this is how it goes
Chorus:
Shapes, shapes they’re everywhere you look
And oval is an egg
A rectangle’s a book
Shapes, shapes we see them everyday
We see them when we work and we see them when we play
A circle is a shape
It’s round just like a cake
Round just like a pie and the sun up in the sky
But what about a square
Four sides I see there
When the sides are all the same
Square is that shape’s name
Shapes, shapes, they’re everywhere you look
And oval is an egg
A rectangle’s a book
Shapes, shapes we see them everyday
We see them when we work and we see them when we play
Triangles have three sides
So it’s no surprise
When my mom cuts up my sandwich for me
There are two triangles I see
Well how could I forget
It’s the best shape yet
It has six sides when it’s drawn so it must be called a hexagon
Shapes, shapes, they’re everywhere you look
And oval is an egg
A rectangle’s a book
Shapes, shapes we see them everyday
We see them when we work and we see them when we play
Trapazoid’s a tricky one but once you’ve learned it it’s lots of fun
Just remember from singing this song
That the top side is short and the bottom side is long
But there is one more, what shape is the door
It’s the same as the top of the table and it’s called a rectangle
Shapes, shapes, they’re everywhere you look
And oval is an egg
A rectangle’s a book
Shapes, shapes we see them everyday
We see them when we work and we see them when we play
The Log Driver’s Waltz – Wade Hemsworth
If you ask any girl from the parish around
What pleases her most from her head to her toes
She’ll say I’m not sure that it’s business of yours
But I do like to waltz with a log driver
For he goes birling down and down white water
That’s where the log driver learns to step lightly
Yes, birling down and down white water
The log driver’s waltz pleases girls completely
When the drive’s nearly over I like to go down
And watch all the lads as they work on the river
I know that come evening they’ll be in the town
And we all like to waltz with the log driver
For he goes birling down and down white water
That’s where the log driver learns to step lightly
Yes, birling down and down white water
The log driver’s waltz pleases girls completely
To please both my parents, I’ve had to give way
And dance with the doctors and merchants and lawyers
Their manners are fine, but their feet are of clay
And there’s none with the style of my log driver
For he goes birling down and down white water
That’s where the log driver learns to step lightly
Yes, birling down and down white water
The log driver’s waltz pleases girls completely
Now I’ve had my chances with all sorts of men
But none as so fine as my lad on the river
So when the drive’s over, if he asks me again
I think I will marry my log driver
For he goes birling down and down white water
That’s where the log driver learns to step lightly
Yes, birling down and down white water
The log driver’s waltz pleases girls completely
Birling down and down white water
The log driver’s waltz pleases girls completely
I Think You’re Great
I think you’re great
You’re really neat
You sure do sweep me off my feet
You are the best
You are so swell
You make me want to yell
HURRAY!
You are so fun
You are so sweet
Being your friend is such a treat
You are so cool
You’re such a dream
I like you better than ice cream
You love to share
You are so kind
When I am late
You never mind
You are the best friend one could make
It’s true you really take the cake
You’re number one
You’re a gold star
Just stating facts that’s what you are
If for one instant you should doubt
And your mouth turns to a pout
Take a listen to this song
Turn it up and sing along
You are sublime
You are stupendous
Like my dad says “You’re tremendous”
You are terrific
You’re fantastic
You are so enthusiastic
You’re divine
You’re a delight
I hope you have sweet dreams at night
I think you’re grand
I love your smile
For just one grin I’d walk a mile
I could go on but this must end
I’m just so thrilled you are my friend
I’m just so thrilled you are my friend.
