LEROY'S
TOY
There
was a boy
His
name was Leroy
He
had a toy
It
was his pride and joy
He
took the toy to school
He
took the toy to bed
He
took the toy to the park
And
this is what he said...
CHORUS:
Everyone
should have a toy this good
Everyone
should have a toy this great
Everyone
should have a toy this cool
Everyone
should have a toy don't wait
Find
yourself a toy that's good
Find
yourself a toy that's great
Find
yourself a toy that's cool
Find
a toy to appreciate
Leroy's
toy
Never
left his hands
Whether
playin' in the bathtub
Or
in a box of sand
On
the beach, on a boat
In
the pocket of his coat
From
the mornin' to the night
Leroy's
toy, well, it was outta sight!
(Sing
it, Leroy!)
CHORUS
And
then one day
Leroy's
toy went away
Leroy
found a new toy
And
new games to play
He
took the toy to school
He
took the toy to bed
He
took the toy to the park
And
this is what he said...
CHORUS
MAILMAN
Mailman,
won't you bring me a letter?
It's
coming from my very best friend
Mailman,
I hope you bring it today
I've
got another one ready to send
Oh
mailman, you've got a lot to deliver
I'll
help you lighten up your load
Hey
mailman, where oh where can you be?
Don't
keep me waiting by the side of the road
Through
sleet, snow or hail
You
do what you gotta to deliver that mail
Look
out for that dog!
Run
faster, don't jog
Hurry
up, mailman! Don't stop to talk
To
everyone on your route
Mailman,
the sun is going down
Daylight
is quickly running out
Hey
mailman, why don't you pick up the pace?
I've
got plenty of other things to do
Mister
mailman, if I held my breath waiting for you
My
head would turn blue!
Through
sleet, snow or hail
You
do what you gotta to deliver that mail
Look
out for that dog!
Run
faster, don't jog
You'd
better start climbing
Get
on over that fence
Hurry
up, mailman
I
haven't got time for this nonsense
I haven't got time (time, time, no time)....
Mailman, won't you bring me a letter?
It's
coming from my very best friend
Mailman,
I hope you bring it today
I've
got another one ready to send
Oh
mailman, you've got a lot to deliver
I'll
help you lighten up your load
Hey
mailman, where on earth can you be?
I'm
not allowed to be so close to the road
Through
sleet, snow or hail
One
way or another, you'd better get me my mail
Look
out for that dog!
Run
faster, don't jog
Mailman...
SIPPY CUP
Fill it with water
Fill it with juice
Fill it with milk, but make
sure
The cover's not loose
Sometimes I take a sip
Sometimes I drink a lot
I don't care if it's cold
But I don't want it if it's
hot
In the morning
In the afternoon
When it's suppertime
And not a minute too soon
I like to carry it
By my side
It's always with me
In the car when I ride
I like the kind that doesn't
drip
It never gets the floor wet
So anytime I drop it or throw
it around
Daddy doesn't get upset
I don't want a bottle
I don't want a glass
I want the cup with the
handle
Fill it up, and do it fast
(please)
Sippy cup
I want a sippy cup
Sippy cup
Give me a sippy cup...
AT A PARTY
In the closet
In the closet there's a sound
when the lights go out
When the lights go out I see
things move about
I have no doubt, they make me
want to shout
But I never do
I never do because I don't
want them to hear
If they hear they may not
ever disappear
So I resist, I close my eyes
and wish
I was at a party
At a party with all my
friends and Mom and Dad
With Mom and Dad there's
nothing but fun to be had
And I'm safe
Until the party's over
And then I'm sad
I am sad but then I start to
laugh and sing
When I sing a song I don't
worry about a thing
Like a sound, or shadows all
around
My sleepy head
I never shout because I don't
want them to hear
If they hear they may not
ever disappear
So I resist, I close my eyes
and wish
I was at a party
At
a party...
TROTSKY
A
new day
He
yawns and stretches and opens his eyes
It's
6 in the morning
Early
to bed, so he's early to rise
He's
Trotsky
A
baby pony with a heart made of gold
He's
the apple of his mommy and daddy's eye
Listen
up, his story has to be told
He
has so many friends
The
cows, the pigs and the chickens, too
He's
always looking for more
I
think he's got his eye on you
He's
Trotsky
A
baby pony with a heart made of gold
He's
the apple of his mommy and daddy's eye
Listen
up, his story has to be told
He'll
run a mile in a minute
He
knows he's handsome and he prances with pride
He
gets stronger every day, he works as much as he plays
And
nothing's ever gonna break his stride
When
the sun goes down
Trotsky
and his friends head in for the night
Under
the stars and the moon
They
sleep together, it's a wonderful sight
He's
Trotsky
A
baby pony with a heart made of gold
He's
the apple of his mommy and daddy's eye
Listen
up, his story has to be told
He's
Trotsky
A
baby pony with a heart made of gold
He's
the apple of his mommy and daddy's eye
Listen
up, his story has to be told
He'll
run a mile in a minute
He
knows he's handsome and he prances with pride
He
gets stronger every day, he works as much as he plays
And
nothing's ever gonna break his stride
He's
Trotsky (come and see him, he's Trotsky)...
MORE
FLOOR THAN BEFORE
Your
room is messy
Let's
get it clean
But
can we do it in three minutes or less?
Get
on your mark
And
get set
Now
go! I'll sing this song while you work
Let's
start with the toys
Do
they belong on the floor?
Not
when they're not being played with
They
should go in the toybox
Pick
up all of your toys
And
fill up that empty toybox
One
toy... Two toys... three, four, five, six
You're
doing such a good job!
Seven
toys... Eight toys... nine, ten, eleven
Hurry
up, the clock is ticking!
I
see more floor than ever before
There's
nothing wrong with a clean room
It's
better than a messy one
I
love to see more floor than before
Can
we clean up all the rest in two minutes or less?
I
don't know!
(Keep
going, you're doing great!)
Put
all your books
Back
on the shelf
From
big to small, or maybe from A to Z
The
hard covers
And
then the soft
We're
running out of time, let's move even faster!
Moving
on to your books
Do
they belong on the floor?
Not
when they're not being read
They
should go on the bookshelf
Pick
up all of your books
And
fill up that empty bookshelf
One
book... Two books... three, four, five, six
You're
doing such a good job!
Seven
books... Eight books... nine, ten, eleven
Hurry
up, the clock is ticking!
I
see more floor than ever before
There's
nothing wrong with a clean room
It's
better than a messy one
I
love to see more floor than before
Can
we clean up all the rest in one minute or less?
Sure
we can, there's nothing else to clean up!
(Look
around, you did a great job! Give yourself a hand!)
I
see more floor than ever before
There's
nothing wrong with a clean room
It's
better than a messy one
I
love to see more floor than before
From
now on, try to clean it in three minutes or less...
Then
you'll have more time to play.
AND THEN ONE DAY
Once upon a time there was a
girl
She was the prettiest in the
world
But there was something on
her mind
It even made her cry
sometimes
She was such a lonely girl
And then one day she met a
boy
He was a prince
She looked in his eyes and
was convinced
He was the boy she was
looking for
She wouldn't be lonely
anymore
That little boy she did adore
Well the little boy loved the
girl too
More than anything
Pretty soon he gave her a ring
And then one day she became
his wife
There couldn't be a more
perfect wife
She brought joy into his life
And then one day they had a
boy
He was no bigger than a toy
He was a blessing from above
As delicate as a dove
And all he ever knew was love
The boy grew up and met a
girl
She was the sweetest in the
world
She loved him and he loved
her too
And their love only grew
I send this love to you

REPEAT
WE'RE
ALL THE SAME
Did
anyone ever tell you before
You're
the handsomest boy
They
ever saw?
Did
anyone ever tell you true
There's
something special about you
And
the things you do?
Did
anyone ever let you know
You
get better as you grow
From
your head down to your toes
Well
if nobody told you before
You're
the handsomest boy
I
ever saw
Don't
ever let somebody tell you you're not
You're
wonderful in your own way
Don't
think there's someone with more style than you've got
We're
all the same at the end of the day
Did
anyone ever tell you before
You're
the prettiest girl
They
ever saw?
Did
anyone ever tell you true
There's
something so nice about you
And
the things you do?
Did
anyone ever let you know
You
get lovelier as you grow
From
your head down to your toes
Well
if nobody told you before
You're
the prettiest girl
I
ever saw
Don't
ever let somebody tell you you're not
You're
wonderful in your own way
Don't
think there's someone with more style than you've got
We're
all the same at the end of the day
Did
anyone ever tell you before
You're
the handsomest boy
They
ever saw?
Did
anyone ever tell you before
You're
the prettiest girl
They
ever saw?
GOODNIGHT, MY CHILD
Goodnight, my child
May the good Lord bless you
With pleasant dreams
Sleep soundly, sweet child
And know that when you awake
I'll be right here
You mean everything to me
You've filled my life
With light
I love you more every day
We're like a flower to a bee
Sleep, my precious child
Just close your eyes
And drift off into the sky
When you're ready to come
home
Your daddy will be here to
greet you
You won't be alone
You won't be alone...
You'll never be alone
THE
BOOGIE DOWN
Now
get up on your feet
And
hold each other's hands
First
you stick out your seat
Then
you can do this dance
Called
The Boogie Down
It's
The Boogie Down
You
take three steps to your left
Then
take three steps to your right
But
make sure you step with a smile
Show
'em you can do it right
It's
The Boogie Down
The
Boogie Down
Shake
Shake
all around
Shake
Now
fall down to the ground
Now
jump back up and raise your hands
And
wave 'em from side to side
While
you wiggle your legs back and forth
Now
jump around real high
It's
The Boogie Down
The
Boogie Down
But
now there are no rules
Move
with the music any way you want to
I
even dare you to act like a fool
Don't
be ashamed if no one does it like you
Do
The Boogie Down
The
Boogie Down
Shake
Shake
all around
Shake
Shake
all around...
Do
The Boogie Down
The
Boogie Down
Shake
Shake
all around
Shake
Move
your body to the sound
Shake
Jump
up and down, jump up and down
Shake
Get
really silly like a clown
Shake
Shake
all around
Shake
Don't
let me see you wear a frown
Shake
Shake
all around
Shake
Now
fall down to the ground.... (whew!)
ALL THE COLORS OF LOVE
The color blue, it's always
sad
The color red, it's always
angry
The color orange, it's as
bright as the sun
The color purple, it's always
fun
CHORUS:
So many colors
But only one love
We're different colors
But similar enough
No color's better
Or worse than another
We may be different colors
But we have to love each
other
The color green tells you
when you can go
The color yellow tells you
when to use caution
The color white, it can light
up the night
A black shadow might give you
a fright
CHORUS
The color gray makes for a
rainy day
The color pink looks so
pretty on a flower
Everybody has a color they
love best
It doesn't make that color
better than the rest
CHORUS
