Sean’s Music Factory
Lyrics from the album Planet Kindness
© 2016 Seany Baby Music(BMI)1. HUGS
Who got the hugs?… we got the hugs…It don’t matter how you do it cause it’s all love
You got the hugs relaxed or snug’. Don’t matter how you do it cause it’s all love
I had a high five song to say hello. But that didn’t do the trick now I want mo’
Two types of hugs..ha….we’re going pro! Check out the range as I bust out my flow
You can lean with your shoulder and a tap on the back
You can back in position… go, surprise attack!
Squeeze with loving might…Do the Catch and release
Go sideways, in groups, some bend at the knees
Who got the hugs?… we got the hugs…Don’t matter how you do it cause it’s all love
You got the hugs relaxed or snug’. Don’t matter how you do it cause it’s all love
Pay no mind to suckers who bug out all the time
We call them the hugga buggas…But we think hugging is sublime
You can give an air hug, it’s love from afar
The Imaginary Beach Ball…don’t know where we are
Remember to hug if you both want it
When the huggin’ is right, you gotta’ flaunt it
[Chorus]
Look out for that bear hug from your family and friends
hugga bugga hugga bugga… do it again!
[Chorus]
2. FEELING MUSIC
How do you feel right now?
Wear your emotions right here…your face
How do you feel right now?
Common and journey with me… to our… inner space
Time to get happy with my cuica
See if you can laugh with the pattern some
Now straight to the cello and sad bassoon
Don’t worry your mind, we’ll be movin’ on soon.
[Chorus]:
Let’s dive in to who we are
Take a musical dip that’s deep in our bones?
Bring to light all of our sides
To wash those feelings and start seeing alright
Get crunchy and angry and stomp your feet
Guitars use pedals to drive the beat
Let’s sweeten up our soul with some ukulele
Compliment a friend or share maybe
Parents we know that our kids can get winy
Frustrated with their life those voices get tiny
But let’s tighten up when the fear comes in
An oboe and a horn can make the right din.
[Chorus]
When things are intense or super hyped
Play that brass with full delight
With those same instruments we become awkward
…Simply changing the time and the notes of your heart.
[Chorus]
Sometimes the emotions can be too much and all we want to do is stop [breath]
Other times things get interesting and everything keeps building up.
[Chorus]
How do you feel right now?
Share your emotions right here…This space.
3. ANIMAL CHOW PARTY RHYME TIME
Sean’s got a place with music and tastes. Kids would eat and listen.
They brought their friends with musical blends…danced with pans through the kitchen.
He saiiiiiiiid
Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker's man, bake us a cake as fast as you can.
Roll it, pat it, mark it with a "B" keep a beat to the oven for everybody!
Sooooooo
Sean’s Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard. To get her poor dog a drum;
But when she came there, the cupboard was bare, still dog’s guitar he strummed.
Annnnnnnnd
Hey, diddle diddle, the cat played the fiddle, the cow jumped all through the room.
The little dog laughed to see such sport and the dish got clinked by a spoon.
Thennnnnn
Jill and Jack grabbed a snack and fetched their friend on sax.
Jack fell slow, the horn won’t blow, now Jill’s not so relaxed.
Thusssssss
Little Miss Muffet Sat on a tuffet, sad the sax won’t play.
Along came a spider who sat down beside her. It’s trombone brightened her day.
Buuuuuuut
Humpty Dumpty sat on a stool, Humpty Dumpty he is no foul.
All the animals, Jack, Jill and Sean played music for Humpty while he ate sang along.
4. JULIANA VS THE UNITED STATES
So whatcha gonna do now that you know the truth?
Kids can do more than just play
Some tell you what to do but still you lead the way
The future’s ours to take…take
[chorus]:
And you would know
Just look at my face
This world is what you dream up
You can make a better place
So whatcha gonna do when you start to fly?
Make the air a cleaner space
When things get kinda tough, are you gonna cry?
We’ll rise above …above
[chorus]
Everyone
Starts out small
With small ideas
Make them grow
[chorus X 2]
6, CURRY CLAP
From the tunnel do a…
Jump shot, ya gotta’…
My favorite type of Curry is the one that plays
Not just the game but the way he pays
Respect to community and shares his love
Here’s to hoping his magic, off it rubs.
Hoop it up……..make a swish
Scoop it up….here’s my wish
[chorus]:
If kindness was the ball, pass it on
Get spray paint for signs and blast it on
We, the people, do a chest pass
‘Cause it’s from the heart and it’s meant to last
He dribbles, shoots, yeah he got moves
He even got those presidential shoes
It’s no wonder the Bay has got his back
Give it up for Curry, do the Curry Clap
[Clap section]
Hoop it up……..make a swish
Scoop it up….here’s my wish
If kindness was the ball…pass it on
Get spray paint for signs and blast it on
We, the people do a chest pass
‘Cause it’s from the heart and it’s meant to last
[Clap section]
If kindness were the ball…pass it on
Get spray paint for signs and blast it on
We, the people do a chest pass
‘Cause it’s from the heart and it’s meant to last
[Outro with claps over it]
From the tunnel do a…
Jump shot, ya gotta’…
7. PICTURE
Take a picture with your mind
Take a picture with your mind
Take a picture with your mind so you don’t forget
Draw a picture in the sands and it washes away
[chorus]:
Shabadaday ba oom ba day I say ooh ooh ohh
Paint a picture on a page then give it away.
Hang a picture on a wall. Have a pleasant day.
[chorus]
[your turn]
….a picture….
[Chorus doubled]
8. A PIRATES EXPRESSION
[chorus]:
Expressive expressions express pirate lessons
Or claim to explain exactly what is vexing
Perplexing or hexing those treasures with X-ing
Expressions are also a link to our past
An old timey saying for a pirate who’s sailing
A ship with a jib sail end
How the jib sail’s shaped could determine the fate
Of whether pirate is foe or friend
So people who like the cut of your jib
Those people mean they like your ways
But if pirates don’t like the cut of your jib
Then perhaps you should sail away
[chorus]
The 19th September pretend you’re a member
Of plundering pirates in fog
Ahoy! Avaste! We be pirates at last
You be a salty sea dog!
But we pirates aren’t mean like those real ones seen
Though a whale of a time is our plan
Cause whales are big and join us at sea
When we smile we’re happy as clams [clams look like their smiling!]
[chorus]
Aboard the ship Expression
Though it’s at the shore man’s discretion
Cause you shape up or ship out on Idiom Sea
The tide might be bumpy but you’ve got your mateys
Don’t be like rats from a sinking ship
Cause rats are the first to flee [we sense danger first!]
[chorus]
9. WIZARD’S CODE
The Secret Code
True Wizard’s know
Is 1 3 5 7 9 12
When you reach the other side
You will be surprised!
10. SUPER BEES
I used to be afraid of bees but now I want to protect them!
Bees have five eyes they can use
I think that is super news
But honey bees are it for me
They do a waggle dance for free.. they go
Buzz….
Fly up high towards home they dive
Get real snug in their bee hives
Honey bees are it for me
Live and work the biggest colony
They do a waggle dance for free… they go
Buzz…
Sticky nectar from flowers galore
Bumble’s always looking for more
But honey bees are it for me
Together they work combs of honey
Live and work the biggest colony
They do a waggle dance for free they go
Buzz…
12. HANDS FREE
Let’s……Let’s get connected
Yeah…. Let’s raise the bars
Be here together
This hands free goes far
[chorus]:
Reaching for the highest star hands free
Reaching for the highest star hands free
Reaching for the star… activate the cells inside your soul
Do a little dance with friends hands free
Do a little dance with friends hands free
Do a little dance activate the cells inside your soul
Jumpin up and waving arms hands free
Jumpin up and waving arms hands free
Jumping up and wave… activate the cells inside your soul

Make your fingers float along hands free
Make your fingers float along hands free
Make your fingers float… activate the cells inside your soul
Sing out what you gonna do hands free
Sing out what you gonna do hands free

Tap and clap and snap the beat hands free
Tap and clap and snap the beat hands free
Tap and clap and snap… satisfy the cells inside your soul
Hands free will you come light me
Hands up to the stars
Reaching for the highest star hands free
Reaching for the highest star hands free
Reaching for the star… activate the cells inside your soul
Rocket ship to outer space hands free
Rocket ship to outer space hands free
Rocket ship to space… activate the stars inside yourself.
13. DO THE PUPPET DANCE
[Sean]:
I’m the puppet master… see he does what I want
He looks like me, but it’s him that I flaunt
I shaky shaky shaky his head like crazy
Then I makey makey makey his head go lazy
[chorus]:
Do the puppet dance
Just copy his moves
We can make him follow orders
He can’t disapprove
Do the Puppet dance
He never puts up a fight
We can make him follow orders
It’s not like he bites
[Puppet bites Sean]
[ouch]
Well he did just bite me so that was kind of odd
No need to panic this puppet must be flawed
I’ll put the puppet back in his little puppet home
My body feels funny… hey what’s going on
[Puppet]:
I’m the puppet master, see he does what I want. [Sean]: What’s happening?!
He looks like me, but it’s him that I flaunt. [Sean]: This feels wrong!
I shaky shaky shaky his head like crazy. [Sean]: I’m dizzy!
Then I makey makey makey his head go lazy. [Sean]: End the song!
Do the puppet dance
Just copy his moves
We make him follow orders
He can’t disapprove
Do the Puppet dance
He never puts up a fight
We make him follow orders
I’ll make this right
[Puppet bites Sean]
[Sean]: Ouch, you bit me again! So that’ supposed to stop me from being your servant?
[Sean and Puppet]:
Do the puppet dance
Just copy our moves
We’ll do it all together
We hope you approve
Do the Puppet dance
Don’t put up a fight
We’ll do it all together
And we’ll feel alright
14. SAFETY THING
For some it is a gee
A blanky or pacy
For some it is the warm embrace
From a special soft dolly
[chorus]:
Oooh…It gives safety from that scary thing
Oooh… Unsure of what it might bring
So hold it close. And don’t you cry.
A toy car or a train
Help you feel sane
When you’re somewhere new, not sure what to do
It can help to ease your pain
Oooh…It gives safety from that scary thing
Oooh… Unsure of what it might bring
So hold it close. And don’t you cry.
[chorus]

2. DRAGONFLY
Up down side to slide…flap your wings do the dragonfly.
Up down side to slide…flap your wings do the dragonfly.
The dragonfly’s the smoothest bug, they don’t carry a disease
They don’t sting or bite us but catch prey with ease
They are so colorful and beautiful in flight
lived large before the dinos at half your height
So let’s join them come take flight
Up down side to side. Flap your wings do the dragonfly
Up down side to side. Flap your wings do the drangonfly
Front back side to side, every which way do the dragonfly
Front back side to side every which way do the dragonfly
They are superhero bugs, flying fastest by far
The biggest and the sharpest eyes for sure
Though I would not dare to hurt one, they can not feel pain
So different from us but love them all the same
So let’s join them come take flight
Up down side to side. Flap your wings do the dragonfly
Up down side to side. Flap your wings do the dragonfly
Front back side to side, every which way do the dragonfly
Front back side to side every which way do the dragonfly
Repeat chorus

4. Ps AND Qs
If you’re gonna’ have to toot
Cause that sound will hurt to mute
Everybody does it sometimes
But leave the room… at least give some room
And say excuse me if that bum chimes
Mind your Ps and Qs
You know exactly what to do
Please! Excuse me! Thank you! will take you all the way
A burp may escape
You could have a worser fate
In some countries it’s considered kind
But do us all a favor
Try to muffle up that flavor
Say excuse me and we’ll all be fine
Mind your Ps and Qs
These are some simple clues
Minor manner memos help you ‘member what you’re meant to say
Some traditions should be kept
If we all can accept
A bless you when someone sneezes
Use that vampire arm
And the blesser won’t be harmed
Excuse me is all that is needed
Mind your Ps and Qs (Mind your Ps and Qs)
You know exactly what to do (It’s nice to say….)
Please! Excuse me! Thank you! will take you all the way
Mind your Ps and Qs (Mind your Ps and Qs)
These are some simple clues (It’s nice to say…)
Minor manner memos help you ‘member what you’re meant to say
I did not mean to offend
With this song and to that end
I’ll mind my Ps and Qs
Thank you! That’s it! The end!
5. KINDERGARTEN SHOES (Featuring Jillian) By Jillian Mendelson
It’s my first day of school
And everybody knows
I got my kindergarten shoes, and my lunch box, and my back-pack
I got my kindergarten shoes and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten shoes and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten shoes and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten shoes and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten lunch box and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten lunch box and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten lunch box and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten lunch box and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten back-pack and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten back-pack and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten back-pack and I’m ready to move
I got my kindergarten back-pack and I’m ready to move
6. SICK SONG
When You’ve got a runny nose and you’re sick right to your toes [snuff]
Here’s my aid to give a healthy view
When you’re lying in your bed with a bubbly, bubbly head[sing while holding nose]
Use the time to think of something new
A song…A trick…What keeps you mind off the ick?
A joke…A story…Make sure it’s not too gory
Whatever it is that satisfies your time
So let’s snuff and cough our sickly blues away
Treat it like it’s just a rainy day
I’m sorry if your tummy’s kind of peeved
Imagination’s really all you need
When your tummy has an ache you “go for crying out sakes”
The words you say don’t even come out right
And if your throats got you down and you sound like Scratchy Town
Who needs to talk when you can draw or write?
So plan a trip, even with those chapped up lips
Go watch YouTube, you’re forgiven if you’re rude
Whatever it is that satisfies your time
So let’s snuff and cough our sickly blues away
Treat it like it’s just a rainy day
I’m sorry if your tummy’s kind of peeved
Imagination’s really all you need
Wash your hands. Make that plan. Easy to take this stand
No Germs go to the next man
Wash every single time. Even if there’s a line
No germs to the next woman
So let’s snuff and cough our sickly blues away
Treat it like it’s just a rainy day
I’m sorry if your tummy’s kind of peeved
Imagination’s really all you need
7. LOVE AND MUSIC
This guitar
It’s holding me nicely
It’s power charged
With beams that will light me
Can’t say it’s only music if it’s love
Fear can be defeated. Remember you’re the sweetest…
Crowd …together, share this vison of hope
Love thy neighbor, make music their favor
Over my head
The Jedi guitar way
Under me leg
The power we all play
Roshambo! Yes, love will always win
Guitar moves bring joy from where I’ve been
Can’t say it’s only music if it’s love
Fear can be defeated. Remember you’re the sweetest…
Crowd …together, share this vison of hope
Love thy neighbor, make music their favor
How can you spread your love?
Oooh! Whatcha gonna’ do with love?
How can you spread your love?
Oooooh!
8. OPEN AND SHUT THEM
Intro: [We are going to open and shut our fingers, but be sure they don’t creep into your mouth….especially with Cheeto hands]
Open and shut them
Give a little clap [clap 3 times]
Open and shut them
Fold them in your lap [tap lap]
Creep them, creep them
Right up to your chin
Open up your little mouth but
Do not let them in
[repeat with extended ending]
Wiggle and fold them, wiggle and fold them, give yourself a snap
Wiggle and fold them, wiggle and fold them, give your head a tap
Creep them, creep them, slowly creep them, right down to your knees
Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, everybody freeze.
Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, everybody sneeze
[Sean: Let’s try other body parts like your elbows, your patellas, or even your philtrum.
Kid: Philtrum?!… that sounds gross
Sean: It’s just that area between your nose and mouth…that’s hard to clap
Sean: My favorite, is the axillae
Kid: You mean favorite thing to do is act silly?
Sean: No, I mean, we should open and shut our axillae… you know? Our armpits…
Kid: Oh brother! You’re not that humorous.
Sean: Great idea!
Kid: What now?!
Sean: We’ll use our humerus bones. They’re the ones that go from the elbow to the shoulder.
Kid: Your epidermis is showing.

10. NIGHT OWL AND EARLY BIRD
He wakes up in the morning with light in his heart
She goes to bed with stars so bright, it cancels out the dark
And when they get together their dreams do come true
Cause a night owl and an early bird help to see each other’s views
Early greets the day his thoughts are running wild
Owl wants to sleep in for just a little while
Night Owl stays awake planning the next day
Early’s snoring loudly sleeping right away
But together they sing
Hoo, Hoo!
Tweet, tweet.
Just because they’re sun and moon doesn’t mean they’re out of tune
They meet there in the middle where their time starts to bloom
So Owl plays candy crush and Early talks too fast
They give each other space to breath. You know it’s meant to last
Hoooo
Tweetle deetle dee
But Together they Sing
Hoo, hoo!
Tweet, tweet!
11. CIAO NOW BROWN COW

Peace out little trout… Take care polar bear.
Bye bye butterfly... Ciao now brown cow!

Sean-No, the hook is the most memorable part of a song. Check this out!Make the song up as you go. Common now and go with the flow
Sing about what you know, but shhhhh keep it on the down lowThe tempo, the rhythm, the bass are in check. The melody’s all good so now we’re all set
Now drop in the horns, you can’t go wrong. Everyone sing the hook to this songMake the song up as you go. Common now and go with the flow
Sing about what you know, but shhhhh keep it on the down lowNow that we’re in the groove it’s time this song really moves
So get up, shake it, shake it… shout what’s next?
We’ll double up the chorus ‘cause you’re the bestMake the song up as you go. Common now and go with the flow
Sing about what you know, but shhhhh keep it on the down low[Chorus repeats]
Logan: We need a break!
Sean: Good idea! This is called the bridge. It’s like taking a big musical breath
Logan: We need keyboard. We need saxophone. We need tuba. We need…a guitar. We need xylophone. We need trumpet. We need flute. We need electrical guitar.
I think we covered everything…..As we went along we made up the song
Dingity dig dong we’re running long
My part’s the bomb! The music’s strong
But when this chorus ends, please hit a gong[Final chorus with gong]High Five, Time Travel Twinkle, Most Exciting, Make it Up as You Go, Roll Pop Click, You Are What You Eat, Schmaltzy Walz, Pouring Housetop- by Jillian Mendelson, Defender of the Good, Going to the Trains ©2007 by Mitchell and Phil Schroeder, additional words by Sean Mendelson ©2014, Hip Hop Park, Rap Interlude, Over in the Bay, Pet Peeves, Tickle Monster.

You are what you eat. I love cheese I guess I’m cheesy
Eating healthy food can make you happy and it’s easy
Eat some kale. Be the King or Queen of Greens
It taste delish and makes you rich……in nutrientsI’m a sweet potato. Got an orange glow so I’ve been told
Popping blueberries keeps out colds and makes my brain bold
You won’t turn blue but they’re berry yummy
Here’s the truth about the foods we put in our tummyAll of this is good fun but really just remember
It’s a piece of cake to share a cake with family members
Just don’t eat like a horse and mix in healthy foods
Food gives you energy and helps our attitudes. Well alright!You are what you eat. I’m a nut cause I like almonds
Avocado, yum! Seaweed, oats… Now what’s in common?
They’re the best fuel for our engines each day
An apple a day keeps the doctor awayAll of this is good fun but really just remember
It’s a piece of cake to share a cake with family members
Just don’t eat like a horse and mix in healthy foods
Food gives you energy and helps our attitudesWhat did you eat today? Gummy bears and pasta
What did you eat today? Pizza and broccoli
What did you eat today? Mashed potatoes and turkey
What did you eat? What did you eat? What did you eat? What did you eat?All of this is good fun but really just remember
It’s a piece of cake to share a cake with family members

RAP INTERLUDE
A hairstylist baker
Started dancing with a shaker
‘Cause his business did quite well
From all the stuff he’d sell
He’d roll some dough
And style a fro
And sometimes cook the hair of Joe
Yikes!OVER IN THE BAY
Over in the Bay near the fog mixed with the sun
Stood a big Bay Bridge and that Golden Gate one
Creek said the bridges. I creek said the one
As the cars drove over through the fog mixed with sunOver in the Bay with those San Francisco views
Alcatraz and Treasure were those little islands two
Breezy were these islands. Breezy were the two
As we took a ferry boat from the islands with a viewOver in the Bay near the Muir Woods redwood trees
Lived a sea lion mommy and her little pups three
Arf said the mommy. We arf said the three
As they swam towards Marin and the Muir Woods redwood treesOver in the Bay SilconValley soars
The tech savvy birthplace and these companies four
Invent said the valley. Invent said the four
As they Google Facebook YouTube with an Apple right in storeOver in the Bay where the Giants fans thrive
Were two Giant players and their little children five
I’ll catch the ball said Posey and catch it said the five
As he dove into the stands where the Giants fans thriveOver in the Bay where the kids click rhythm sticks
Was Sean’s Music Factory and his music classes six
Sing said the teacher. We sing said the six
As they danced, drummed and played with their red rhythm sticksOver in the Bay where the weather is close to heaven
Lived environment lovers and friends that numbered seven
Dig said the woman. We dig said the seven
As they planted veggie gardens in our weather close to heavenOver in the Bay where the fish took the bait
Lived a group of fisherman and their fleet of boats eight
Chill said the good friends. We chill said the eight
There’s beauty in the skyline and the fish all took our bait.PET PEEVES
When you become parents, you’ll understand, grown-ups have certain pet peeves
-Dah!
Dah!
Pet peeves annoy you or irk you,
-What’s that?!
Don’t ask me if you please
So here’s a tiny list of things that drive me up a wall
Pardon me, they’re silly things so do not be alarmedCheeto hands and stinky feet
Struggling with a car seat
These are a few of my least favorite things
Cheeto hands and stinky feet
Sippy cups and car seats
These pet peeves make parents smile when they singSometimes it feels good to get it off your chest
And put your feelings on display even when you are a mess
Other times you bottle up….keep feelings to yourself
You’ll write a playful song like this, screaming out for helpCheeto hands and stinky feet
struggling with a car seat
These are a few of my least favorite things
Be polite Eat your food
One last chance Lose the ‘tude
Past bed time… pajama drawer
Put that on… tug of war
Sing along mom and dad
Kids join in. I know it’s sad
These are a few of my least favorite things
Cheeto hands and stinky feet
Sippy cups and car seats
These pet peeves make parents smile when they singDah! Would you just get in the car seat?
Please just get in the car seat
What is this gummy stuff on the car seat?
You just spilled your Sippy cup
Just get in the car seat
