INVENTION

The cord ain’t long enough.Bella,

OURCHESTRA

So you haven’t got a drum, just beat your belly.So I haven’t got a horn – I’ll play my nose.So we haven’t any cymbals –We’ll just slap our hands together,And though there may be orchestrasThat sound a little betterWith their fancy shiny instrumentsThat cost an awful lot –Hey, we’re making music twice as goodBy playing what we’ve got!Eric P., Lloyd, Isaac, Devin

MAKE NEW FRIENDS 1. Make new friends, but keep the old, One is silver, and the other gold. 2. A circle is round, it has no end, That’s how long I’m going to be your friend. 3. Friends like you, are one of a kind, Very special and so hard to find.

THE ACROBATS

I’ll swingBy my ankles,She’ll clingTo your kneesAs you hangBy your noseFrom a high-upTrapeze.But just one thing, please,As we float through the breeze –Don’t sneeze.Monica, Tanaya, Cheyenne, Trinity

LITTLE HOARSE

Beau, Alex Lane, Taylor

My voice was raspy, rough, and cracked.I said, “I am a little hoarse.”They stuck a saddle on my backAnd jumped on me – and now, of course,

Gracey, Jason, Sarah, Elise

They trot me and they gallop me,They prance me up and down the townYellin’, “Giddy up, little hoarse.”(Some things don’t mean the way they sound.)

CAPTAIN HOOKSean, Logan, Traeton, Beau

Captain Hook must remember Not to scratch his toes.Captain Hook must watch outAnd never pick his nose.Captain Hook must be gentleWhen he shakes your hand.

Captain Hook must be carefulOpenin’ sardine cansAnd playing tag and pouring teaAnd turnin’ pages of his book.Lots of folks I’m glad I ain’t –But mostly Captain Hook!Joe, Alex, James, Isaac, Elise

John Kanaka

1. I heard, I heard the old man say, John Kanaka-naka tu-lai-ay.Today, today is a holiday, John Kanaka-naka tu-lai-ay.

Refrain: Tu-lai-ay, Oh! Tu-lai-ay, John Kanaka, naka, Tu-lai-ay.

2. We’ll work tomorrow, but no work today…

3. We’re bound away for ‘Frisco Bay…

4. A Yankee ship with a Yankee crew…

5. Oh, haul away, oh, haul away!

LITTLE PIG’S TREAT

Said the pig to his pop, Noah, Devin,“There’s the candy shop. Chris, IsaacOh, please let’s go inside.And I promise I won’tMake a kid of myselfIf you give me a people-back ride.”

FUZZY WUZZY

Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear. DaneFuzzy Wuzzy had no hair.Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn’t fuzzy, was he?

WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD I see trees of green, red roses too,I see them bloom for me and you,And I think to myselfWhat a wonderful world. I see skies of blue and clouds of white,The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night,And I think to myselfWhat a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the skyAre also on the faces of people goin’ by.I see friends shakin’ hands, Sayin’, “How do you do!”They’re really sayin’ “I love you.”I hear babies cry, I watch them growThey’ll learn much more than I’ll ever know,And I think to myselfWhat a wonderful world.Yes, I think to myselfWhat a wonderful world.

TREE HOUSE

A tree house, a free house,A secret you and me house,A high up in the leafy branchesCozy as can be house.

A street house, a neat house,Be sure and wipe your feet houseIs not my kind of house at all –Let’s go live in a tree house.

Gracie, Sydney, Marissa, Julia, Cameron

TURKEY?

Erin, Traeton, Peter, Elizabeth

I only ate one drumstickAt the picnic dance this summer,Just one little drumstick –They say I couldn’t be dummer.

Ricardo, Sean, Eric Hall, Koby

One tough and skinny drumstick,Why was that such a bummer?But everybody’s mad at me,Especially the drummer.

RECIPE FOR SUCCESSBY Ralph Waldo Emerson

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people

and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;

to appreciate beauty,to find the best in others;

to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch

or a redeemed social condition;To know even one life has breathed easier because you lived.

This is to have succeeded.

We hope you enjoyed our program. We wish each of you a beautiful summer. We hope to see you soon. Good night.

We Go Together

1. We go together, like Rama lama lama ka ding-a da ding a-dong.Remembered forever as Shoo-bop sha wadda wadda yippity boom-de boom.Chang chang changity chang shoo-bop, That’s the way it should be.Wha-ooooh, yeah!

2. We’re one of a kind like dip da dip da dip doo-wop da doo.Our names are signedBoogie boogie boogie boogieShooby doo-wop she-bop.Chang chang changity chang shoop-bop,We’ll always be like one, wa wa wa waah.

When we go out at night,And stars are shinin’ bright,Up in the skies above,Or at the high school dance,Where you can find romance,Maybe it might be lo-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-ove.

Rama lama lama ka dinga da ding a dong,Shoobop sha wadda wadda yippity boom de boom,Chang chang changitty chang shoo bop,Dip da dip da dip doo wap da doo bee doo,Boogie boogie boogie boogie shooby doo wop shebop,Sha na na na na na ka dinga da dinga dong. (Repeat)

Wop ba-ba loo-bop, a wop bam boom!

We’re for each other like Wop ba-ba loo-bop, a wop bam boom.Just like my brother is sha na na na na na,Yippity boom de boom,Chang chang changitty chang shoo bop,We’ll always be together, wha-oooh, yeah!We’ll always be together.We’ll always be together.We’ll always be together.Wop baba loo-bop, a wop bam boom!

THE WIND BENEATH MY WINGSIt must have been cold there in my shadow,To never have sunlight on my face.You were content to let me shine, that’s your way,You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory,While you were the one with all the strength.A beautiful face without a name, for so long,A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

CHORUSDid you ever know that you’re my hero?And everything I would like to be?I can fly higher than an eagle,‘Cause you are the wind beneath my wings. It might have appeared to go unnoticed, But I’ve got it all here in my heart.I want you to know I know the truth, Of course I know it.I would be nothing without you. CHORUS (TWICE)

Fly… fly… Fly away, you let me fly so high.Oh, fly…fly…So high against the sky,So high I almost touch the sky.Thank you, thank you, thank God for you, The wind beneath my wings.

BUBBLE GUM My mother gave me a penny,And told me to buy a ,Instead of buying a ,I bought bubble gum! Ba-room-ba-room-ba-bubble gum,Ba-room-ba-room-ba-bubble gum! My mother gave me a nickel,And told me to buy a ,Instead of buying a ,I bought bubble gum!Ba-room-ba-room-ba-bubble gum,Ba-room-ba-room-ba-bubble gum!
