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 19^th 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

 

Let’s… let’s take this moment

Let’s cut through the waves

Take shade from this hot spot

Got memory to save

 

Reaching for the highest star hands free chorus

 

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

Sing!

 

Got a band with throttling drums [daaaaooo]

I send this land line to you [daaaaooo]  

I got a sense that you’re catching on [daaaaooo]              

Just want talk time with you!

 

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

 

3. TWO LITTLE BLACKBIRDS

Listening to Bach….hip hop/rock

Eating cookie dough….fast/slow

Sitting in a tree…gets Stuck…one flys free…fly away.. I can’t, I’m stuck! Fly away free. Come back… Still here…Come back free.

 

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!

HIGH FIVE
I used to say hello to everyone I passed
Now I give high-fives they are a blast
So let’s say hello, come on slap me some skin
What’s up and where have you been

High five high five it’s good to be alive
High five high five and the world comes to life

A melting pot’s where I live… means different cultures meet
I use this high five song to learn how they greet
Chokala in Spanish and dame cinco too
In India “de taali”….What’s high-five to you? 

High five high five it’s good to be alive
High five high five and the world comes to life

Hey, high fives the way                                     
It makes better days                                          
Lots of kids play                                                     
Sing if you may                    

High five high five that touch makes you alright
High five high five and the world comes alive

A fist bump, a handshake a hug or a kiss
As long as it welcomes, do as you wish
So slip me a five common join in the fun
Up-high the game we just won

High five high five it’s good to be alive
High five high five and the world comes to life

Big ball of gas, I’d like to put you in a jar
Five point stylin’ little star
Luminescent, incandescent… put you on my car
[Twinkle theme one last time]

MOST EXCITING
This is the most exciting song I’ve ever heard
[snoring sounds] 
-Wake up!
This is the most exciting song I’ve ever heard
-You already did that part
It will get you right up on your feet
[snoring sounds]
-Forget it!
No, I got this!

Move like Turbo. Don’t freeze like Anna
Let it go like you never had to sleep        
Time to get pumped up like a bicycle tire
Speaking of which is anyone tired

This is the most exciting song I’ve ever heard
It’ll get you right up on your feet
yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Time to get pumped up like a bicyle tire
Moving to the beat like I just caught on fire

This is the most exciting song I’ve ever heard
It will get you right up on your feet
This is the most exciting song I’ve ever heard
It will put you all right to sleep start counting sheep….1, 2, 3 ,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9…..gummy

This is the most exciting song we’ve never heard
It always puts him to sleep
Let’s run and play while he’s counting sheep
We’ll sing it nice and soft and we’ll barely make a peep

MAKE IT UP AS YOU GO
 [Bass]
Logan: That’s too slow….speed it up!
 [Bass groove from actual song starts]
Logan: yeah, that sounds good
Sean: Ok… now the drums 
Logan- Can we try a different feel! 
Sean- yeah, something more Caribbean 
[Drums change feel]
Sean- We need a melody…how about this?…bum bum ba da dum
Logan- Boring! 
Sean- How’s this? Ba da da da da da da…I’m liking that. Let’s drop in some accordion[accordion plays a bar]….forget that!…How about some piano?….We need a hook!
Logan- Captain Hook?!
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 low

The 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 song

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 low

Now 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 best

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 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]

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT

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 nutrients

I’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 tummy

All 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 away

All 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

What 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
Just don’t eat like a horse and mix in healthy foods
Food gives you energy and helps our attitudes

HIP HOP PARK
To the park, play it smart, take a couple friends
Play it cool by the rules this won’t be the end
Hit the slide take a ride on the swing of your choice
Climb the thing while you sing in a hip hop voice

Hip-hop park ya don’t stop till dark
From one to the next ya party
Park hoppin’ fun has just begun….Say What?! Say What?!
See what this one’s got

Climb a net, getting wet in the water sprayer
Tons of sand in my hand in a hideout lair 
Just a smidge, cross the bridge to the big green tunnel
Picnic meal, water wheel and it’s drippin’ down the funnel

Hip-hop park ya don’t stop till dark
From one to the next ya party…..Say What?!
Park hoppin’ fun has just begun….Say What?! Say What?!
See what this one’s got

The park’s just the start. It gives you the spark
Makes brain run wild
Hide and seek. Tag! You’re it.
Swashbuckling pirates on playgrounds
Playgrounds

Hip-hop park ya don’t stop till dark
From one to the next ya party…..Say What?!
Park hoppin’ fun has just begun….Say What?! Say What?!

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 sun

Over 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 view

Over 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 trees

Over 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 store

Over 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 thrive

Over 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 sticks

Over 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 heaven

Over 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 alarmed

Cheeto 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 sing

Sometimes 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 help

Cheeto 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 sing

Dah! 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
[unclear frustrated parent talk]

TICKLE MONSTER
I see the tickle monster
I see it right in front of me
Fingers long and dancey
It’s coming even closer to me

I know it’s gonna tickle [Kids laughing]
And then I will giggle
I know it’s gonna tickle me

Gotta get its hands
Yeah here’s the plan
Gotta get its hands and stop that monster if we get it clappin’

So give us a hand    
Clap if you can      
We’ll force those tickles to finally end

We’ll turn the tables as soon as we’re able
We’ll tickle that tricky tickler     [Kids laughing]
Once it begins to laugh then we win
The Tickle Monster will give up

Tickle, tickle, a tickle, a tickle
Tickle, tickle, a tickle, a tickle
Tickle, tickle, a tickle, a tickle
Tickle, tickle, a tickle, a tickle

I see the tickle monster
I see it right in front of me

It’s coming even closer to me

Yeah here’s the plan
Gotta get its hands and stop that monster if we get it clappin’
