BLUE BALLOON
Blue Balloon, on a string
oh the smiles and the joy that you bring,
you’re just here for a while, now and then
blue balloon, when will I ever see you again?!
You just got here today, blue balloon,
welcome home,
come and play blue balloon,
I’ve got so much to say
be my friend, till the end,
days together we’ll spend,
blue balloon, blue balloon.
Great adventures await, blue balloon,
travel far,
It’s your fate, blue balloon
please don’t leave me so soon,
fly away, far away,
now I know you can’t stay,
see you soon, blue balloon.
RIDING IN MY CAR
in my bright shiny automobile,
over and under bridges and tunnels,
riding in my car.
We’ll pack some food, some books and some crayons,
we’ll pack a camera video too,
we’ll see the world, its’ glory and wonder,
riding in my car.
CHORUS:
I’ll take the wheel, you take the gas,
signal when we pass.
now red means stop, and green means go,
yellow I don’t know.
ARIETTA
one tiny village with nothing to say,
one little boy with his heart on his sleeve,
wanted to be the king.
There all around him, they toiled in vain,
brothers and sisters with hearts full of pain,
daydreams each day and the same every night,
all of the good he’d bring.
CHORUS:
Bright new horizons are what I decree,
smiles abound, children run free,
there’ll be no sickness, no hunger no pain,
come share my kingdom with me.
FISH SALON
far below in a cavernous cave,
there’s a place, fish can go for a shave.
Clean your gills, shine your scales,
now on Tuesdays a special for whales,
hurry down, all you snails, paint your nails.
CHORUS:
Come on in, trim your fins,
at the undersea fish salon,
take a dive, 9 to 5,
feels so good, it’s great to be alive!
Gentle steam, facial cream,
when you exit you’re all squeaky clean,
wax your tail, bring a friend, 2 for sale.
Tango
Some say it comes from the Candombe-
the African slaves as they beat on their drums;
Others say it is the music of the pampas known as the Milonga.
Close your eyes, touch the rhythm; Hear the wail of the TANGO !!!!
Let’s tango, we move to the left,
Let’s tango, we move to the right,
over and under, is this right I wonder,
let’s all learn the tango tonight.
CHORUS:
To dance here with you,
is an unspoken dream now come true,
you’ll be my partner forever,
Tango together for two.
The tango, the duel dancers fight,
The tango, a lover’s delight,
over and under, a love torn asunder,
let’s all dance the tango tonight.
HACHOO
clouds have chased the sun away,
before it gets too wet and dark,
let’s go to play in the park.
On the way it starts to pour,
raindrops falling more and more,
Mommy will be mad, you bet!
’cause we all are soaking wet.
Now my nose is sore and red,
and I must stay in my bed,
sneezy, achy, nose so runny,
gee! this cold is sure not funny.
CHORUS:
Hachoo! Hachoo! Hachoo!
Hachoo! Hachoo! Hachoo!
I have a cold what should I do?
I wish the day was warm and sunny,
instead its cold my nose is runny.
TEDDY BEAR
pleasant dreams I wish for you.
Now the day must end,
and your work’s cut out for you.
CHORUS:
Watch me as I’m sleeping,
shelter me from harm,
Teddy Bear I love you,
snuggled in my arms.
In my bed you wait,
every day so patiently,
such a playful mate,
never asking more from me.
CHORUS:
Lead me through the darkness,
hug me through the night,
teddy bear I’ll follow,
conquering my fright.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE
let’s bake a batch today,
crispy and gooey, soft and so chewy,
let’s be on our way.
Flour and sugar, oh yeah!
butter and eggs to beat,
add some vanilla, ready to bakke a treat!
CHORUS:
Take them off the tray, eat them right away,
one by one by one by one let’s eat them right away.
Fresh right off the sheet, oh so good to eat!
one by one, now the batch is done.
LEGEND
tales from the past some never been told,
Journey, far and beyond,
secrets and treasures to be found.
Fortress, castle on high,
there on a hill way up in the sky,
overlooking the sea,
lived a sweet princess gracefully.
In a bubble of stone,
people around yet always alone,
little diamond so bright,
aching to shine with all her might.
CHORUS:
Golden Majesty,
royal travesty,
lovely princess come and share your joy with me.
Blessed with holiness,
cursed with loneliness,
how I wish that I could live the life you lead.
MIRROR ON THE WALL
look into the looking glass,
there’s a face, I see,
it’s always looking straight at me,
what it seems to be,
is me reflecting back at me,
in the mirror on the wall.
As I walk on by,
look me straight into the eye,
tell me where I’ve been,
I know exactly what I mean,
there’s that face, I see,
it’s always looking straight at me,
in the mirror on the wall.
CHORUS:
In my reflection,
through the windows to my soul,
sum of the parts that put together make me whole,
right there beside me every night and every day,
I’m in the mirror on the wall.
COME END PLAY
won’t you come and play,
dreams come true for you at Club Baby,
join us here today.
There’s a place where the kids are happy,
welcome one and all,
share the fantasy at Club Baby,
learn and have a ball.
CHORUS:
Every face different yet the same,
children of every race,
playing together we can make
the world a better place.
PAPA
memories engraved upon my heart
precious are your words I’ll someday know
my Papa I love you so.
Sharing all your gifts of days gone by
answering the endless countless WHY?
giving of yourself so selflessly
my Papa I love you so.
CHORUS:
Looking at me how your eyes alight
brighter than a beacon in the night
such a very special place for me
sitting on Papa’s knee.
Cuddled in your arms oh so strong and warm
gently you protect me from the storm
through the same two eyes the world we see
sitting on Papa’s Knee.
PARTS OF ME
elbows knees and toes,
wherever I go, all of them go with me.
Shoulders, chin and hair,
thank you I’ll sit there,
wherever I go, these are the parts of me.
Chorus:
How will I remember all their names and where they go,
will they all get bigger as I grow?
I’d like to say I thank you for the person that I’ve become,
and will you always be a part of me.
Now that I remember all your names and where you go,
will you all get bigger as I grow?
I’d like to say I thank you for the person that I’ve become,
and yes you’ll always be a part of me.
