BUBBLEGUM FRIEND
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
I WANT A BUBBLEGUM FRIEND
SOMEONE TO STICK WITH ME TO THE END I NEED A CHUM AS SWEET AS THEY COME I WANT A BUBBLEGUM FRIEND
I WANT A YO-YO FRIEND
TIED TO A STRING AT THE OTHER END WALK THE DOG
AND SLEEP LIKE A LOG
I WANT A YO-YO FRIEND
WHEN I NEED A LITTLE SUNSHINE ON A GLOOMY AFTERNOON
MY FRIEND SHOWS UP
FILLS MY CUP
I SURE HOPE SURE GETS HERE SOON
OH, I WANT A BOOMERANG FRIEND SOMEONE WHO WILL COME BACK AGAIN WHEREVER SHE’S TOSSED
SHE’LL NEVER GET LOST
SHE’S MY BOOMERANG FRIEND
SOME SAY FRIENDSHIP
IS A GAME OF GIVE-AND-TAKE I DON’T WANT TO PLAY GAMES WITH FRIENDS THAT I MAKE
INSIDE MY HEART THERE’S AN EMPTY PART WHERE MY GOOD FRIEND USED TO BE
SHE VOWED TO STAY
BUT SHE FLEW AWAY
I SURE MISS HER COMPANY
I WANT A BUBBLEGUM FRIEND
SOMEONE TO STICK WITH ME TO THE END I NEED A CHUM AS SWEET AS THEY COME I WANT A BUBBLEGUM FRIEND
I WANT A YO-YO FRIEND
I WANT A BOOMERANG FRIEND
I KNOW THAT SOMEWHERE ‘ROUND THE BEND I’LL FIND MY BUBBLEGUM FRIEND

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE HER DANCING SHE SAYS NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
OR MAYBE TRY ROMANCING
SHE SAYS NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
SHE'S THE SWEETEST LITTLE CHERRY THE KIND I'D LIKE TO MARRY
BUT IF I ASK HER NOW
I KNOW WHAT SHE WOULD SAY
I WOULD LIKE TO ASK HER FATHER SHE SAYS NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
TO CONFESS I LOVE HIS DAUGHTER SHE SAYS NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
BUT WHEN I MEET THE MOTHER SHE POINTS TO THE BIG BROTHER AND ONE AFTER THE OTHER THEY SAY NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
SHE’S FROM THE LAND
WHERE THEY SAY NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
I DIDN’T PLAN ON HEARING NO, NO, NO, NO, NO I DRESSED AND LOOKED MY BEST
AND THOUGHT FOR SURE I’D PASS THE TEST INSTEAD OF HEARING “YES”
THEY TELL ME NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
I TRY TO GIVE HER FLOWERS
SHE SAYS NO, NO, NO, NO, NO KNOCK ON HER DOOR FOR HOURS SHE SAYS NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
BUT AS I TURN TO LEAVE
SHE QUICKLY GRABS MY SLEEVE AND I COULD NOT BELIEVE
THE WORDS I HEAR HER SAY
“IT’S TRUE I’M FROM THE LAND WHERE THEY SAY NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
AND I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY YOU WOULD GO, GO, GO, GO, GO
BUT TAKE ME FAR AWAY
AND I WILL PROMISE FROM THIS DAY
YOU’LL NEVER HEAR ME SAY ANOTHER NO, NO, NO, NO, NO”
SHE’S FROM THE LAND
WHERE THEY SAY NO, NO, NO, NO, NO SHE TAKES A STAND
FROM SAYING NO, NO, NO, NO, NO IT’S MUSIC TO MY EARS
I KNOW OUR LOVE WILL LAST FOR YEARS
AS LONG AS NO ONE HEARS ANOTHER NO, NO, NO, NO, NO
AND IN THE LAND
WHERE THEY SAY NO, NO, NO, NO, NO YOU TAKE A STAND
WHEN THEY SAY NO, NO, NO, NO, NO AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED
THERE IS A LESSON TO BE LEARNED LET NO STONE GO UNTURNED
WHEN HEARING NO, NO, NO, NO, NO NO, NO, NO, NO, NO NO NO
NO, NO
NO

THAT’S WHAT LOVE CAN DO
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
I KNOW THERE’S NO WAY AROUND IT
WE’RE GONNA BE ALRIGHT
WE CAN’T LEAVE THIS WORLD THE WAY WE FOUND IT LET’S CROWN OURSELVES KEEPERS OF THE LIGHT
ILLUMINATE THE THINGS WE KNOW
SHINE FOR THOSE WHO’VE LOST THEIR GLOW MAKE SURE BAD THINGS NEVER GROW
AND SEE HOW THE SUN BREAKS THROUGH
I KNOW, YOU KNOW
THAT’S WHAT LOVE CAN DO
I KNOW THERE’S NO EASY ANSWER
WHY, OH, WHY, BECAUSE
I KNOW WE MUST LEARN TO BE A DANCER AND MOVE THE WAY THE BALLERINA DOES
PIROUETTING THROUGH THE MAZE
LEAPING AS THE MUSIC PLAYS
AND RISE ABOVE THOSE HARD-FOUGHT DAYS SO LIFE IS REBORN ANEW
I KNOW, YOU KNOW
THAT’S WHAT LOVE CAN DO
WE MAY FACE SOME CRAZY DAYS
BUT THIS, I’M TOLD, IS JUST A PHASE
SO HOLD ON
LOVE CAN TAKE US SO MUCH HIGHER HOLD ON
TOGETHER WE CAN WALK THROUGH FIRE I KNOW
WE CLING TO THINGS THAT MAKE US STRONG A MORNING WALK, OUR FAVORITE SONG THEN HEAD BACK HOME WHERE WE BELONG WHERE SKIES ARE A CONSTANT BLUE
I KNOW, YOU KNOW
LOVE WILL SEE US THROUGH THAT’S WHAT LOVE CAN DO

BUCKET OF WOW!
Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz and David Raiklen Lyrics by Stephen Michael Schwartz
Take a handful of happy A jarful of joy
A pinch of a girl
A dash of a boy
Add a sunny day for good measure Now we’ve got a recipe for pleasure
I got a great big bucket of wow! I got a great big bucket of wow! I can't help but grin
From the spin that I’m in
It feels so good being me right now
I got a great big bucket of wow!
I got a great big bucket of wow!
If life could get better I don't know how With my great big bucket of wow!
I got a great big bucket of wow! I got a great big bucket of wow! If life were a test
I hoped for the best
And passed with flying colors somehow
I got a heart that's filled to the brim With a light that'll never go dim
If things could get better
Well, I don't know how
With my great big bucket of wow!
(BRIDGE):
Yesterday I had a bushel of pain A silo of sorrow
And plenty of rain
All I know now
Is at least for today
I woke up happy
And happy I’ll stay
So everyone say
I got a great big bucket of wow! I got a great big bucket of wow! I got a great big bucket of wow! I got a great big bucket of wow!
If things could get better
I don't know how
With my great big bucket of wow!
(BRIDGE)
I got a great big bucket of wow! I got a great big bucket of wow! I can't help but grin
From the spin that I’m in
It feels so good being me right now
So no matter what’s happened before I can’t dwell on that anymore Spotlight on the future
I’m taking a bow
I got a great big bucket of wow! Spotlight on the future
I’m taking a bow
I got a great big bucket
Take the past and chuck it
I got a great big bucket of wow!

GOING THERE WITH YOU
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
With a good friend by my side
It doesn't matter where we're bound
As long as there's a great adventure to be found
All around
We can fly on happy wings
We can glide on wonder wheels
When you’re traveling with a friend that’s how it feels
We’re gonna get there when we get there And have a great time when we do
Half the fun of gettin' where we're going Is going there with you
Let’s forget about those shortcuts
They cut travel time in two
Half the fun of gettin’ where we’re going Is going there with you
(BRIDGE):
From here to there There’s much to see And in between There’s you and me
We’re gonna get there when we get there And have a great time when we do
Half the fun of gettin' where we're going Is going there with you
(BRIDGE)
We’re gonna get there when we get there And have a great time when we do
Half the fun of gettin' where we're going Is going there with you
We could stop and ask directions
But we got better things to do
Half the fun of gettin' where we’re going Is going there with you
Half the fun of gettin' where we’re going Is going there with you
Half the fun of gettin' where we’re going Is going there with you

The Boo-Boo Song
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
I got a boo-boo on my head, on my head I got a boo-boo on my head
I jumped and bumped it on my bed
I got a boo-boo on my head
When you got that boo-boo That was a very hard day
But look at me now
And you'll see how
That boo-boo's gone away
I got a boo-boo on my hand, on my hand
I got a boo-boo on my hand
I was digging like a pup in the cold wet sand I've got a boo-boo on my hand
When you got that boo-boo
That must have been a very hard day But look at me now
And you'll see how
That boo-boo's gone away
Because my body is strong And it won’t take long With some love and care
A little fresh air
Soon that boo-boo will be Gone, gone, gone
I got a boo-boo on my knee, on my knee I got a boo-boo on my knee
I lost my grip climbing up a tree
Now I've got a boo-boo on my knee
When you got that boo-boo
That must have been a very hard day But look at me now
And you'll see how
That boo-boo's gone away
‘Cause my body is strong And it won’t take long With some love and care A little fresh air
Soon that boo-boo will be Gone, gone, gone
There’s no boo-boo on me, on me There’s no boo-boo on me
I guess you could say I'm boo-boo free There’s no boo-boo on me
Because my body is strong And it didn't take long With some love and care
A little fresh air
All of my boo-boos are
Gone, gone, gone
And that is the end of the boo-boo song

I’M BEING FOLLOWED BY THE MOON
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
I’m being followed
Followed by the moon
I’m being followed by the moon Just like a boy and his toy balloon I’m being followed
Followed by the moon
(BRIDGE):
Call me lucky
Call me rare
I can fly any direction
And the moon will be right there Beaming with pride
Right there by my side
Oh, I’m being followed
Followed by the moon
I’m being followed
Followed by the moon
I’m being followed by the moon The sun is rising and
The day will be here soon
But I’m not gonna worry ‘Cause I’m in no big hurry
I’m being followed by the moon
(BRIDGE)
I’m being followed
Followed by the moon
I’m being followed by the moon When you hear me
Sing this happy tune
You’ll know I’m allright
Being lit by moonlight
I’m being followed
Followed by the moon, that’s right I’m being followed
Followed by the moon at night
I’m being followed
Followed by the moon

MY BABY TREE
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
Wouldn't you agree
There is nothing quite as lovely to see Popping right out from under the ground Heavenly bound
A baby tree
How does he know
Just exactly where he wants to grow I believe he was waiting for me
So he could be
My baby tree
Now he’s gonna change
Leaves and branches will all re-arrange Every part of him takes to the sky Birds flying high
That’s how tall he will be
And still he will be
My baby tree
And once he has grown
I hope everyone
Leaves him alone
He deserves a quiet place to reside Not merely to hide
Simply a place to be free And still he will be
My baby tree
Wouldn't you agree
There is nothing quite as lovely to see Popping right out from under the ground Heavenly bound
A baby tree
My baby Tree
He always will be
My baby tree

MY RAINBOW WORLD
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
In the real world
There’s red for the apples
Green for the grassy hills
In the real world
There’s orange for the oranges
Yellow for the daffodils
In the real world
There’s purple for the grapes
And blue for the bluest sky
I’m gonna mix these colors up and let them fly
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world
Get ready for a big surprise
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world
The first thing you see when you open your eyes
The morning sun is green
The hills are tangerine
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world My rainbow world
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world The world has a whole new look
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world It’s just like living in a coloring book
In every page I see
Colors running free
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world My rainbow world
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world There’s colors like I've never seen
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world Leaves on the trees don't have to be green So wonderful and strange
It's all a part of change
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world My rainbow world
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world My rainbow world
In my rainbow world, my rainbow world My rainbow world

ONE RAINBOW
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
Every color that you mentioned
Caught my eye and my attention
And the "Rainbow World" was really lots of fun While deep in concentration
I was hit with inspiration
Now I’m rolling all these colors into one
One rainbow, six colors
This world is such a joy
Red, green, yellow, orange, blue and purple A gift sent from heaven
For every girl and boy
Red, green, yellow, orange, blue and purple
Now some days may be filled with cloudy skies But right behind the clouds there's a surprise
One rainbow, six colors
This world is such a joy
Red, green, yellow, orange, blue, purple, Now you see
How beautiful
A rainbow can be!

TAKE A HIKE
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
I'm a kid
But I live here, too
I think I know
What you're going through Being a grown up
Is hard I'm sure
But I'd like to help
I might have a cure
Just for the moment
Can you put down your phone? Try to leave the computer alone Mother Nature is calling to you This is your chance
To try something new
Take a hike, Dad
When things go bad
You can find your thrills On the trails in the hills Take a hike, Dad
And maybe I can tag along I’d like to tag along
The morning paper
The nightly news
Doesn't matter which one you choose
It seems to upset you whatever they say It won't change a thing
To brighten your day
(So) Just for the moment Can you recall? Skipping a rope
Or bouncing a ball? These are pleasures That open my heart
I'd like you try Here's how to start
Go fly a kite, Mom
It’ll make you calm
Let your troubles swing From the end of a string Go fly a kite, Mom
And maybe I can tag along I’d like to tag along
If work makes you so crazy You might try being lazy Once in awhile
If it brings you a smile Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Jump in the lake, Dad
When you’re steaming mad
I can almost bet
You’ll feel better wet
Down in the lake, Dad
And maybe I can jump in, too Here’s what you can do
Take a hike, Dad
When things go bad
You can find your thrills On the trails in the hills Take a hike, Dad
And maybe I can tag along I’d like to tag along

THE PANDA BEAR
Words and Music by Laura E. Good
I have a friend, a panda bear, who likes to drink his tea And every day my panda bear sits and waits for me
We boil the water, stir the tea, then pour it in a cup Then my friend the panda bear and I
We drink it up
Panda bears are just like you and me
They like to sit with friends and drink some tea
I have a friend, a panda bear, who likes to take a walk
He puts his hand in mine and then we stroll into the park We smell the flowers, oh, so sweet
And climb up every tree
Then my friend, the panda bear, and I
We drink some tea
Panda bears are just like you and me
They like to sit with friends and drink some tea
I have a friend, a panda bear, who likes to ride his bike
He puts his feet upon the pedals and pushes with all his might He takes the corners much too fast and “ouch” he skins his knee
But then my friend, the panda bear, and I
We drink some tea
Panda bears are just like you and me
They like to sit with friends and drink some tea
When I’m in the need for love and care I can always count on panda bear

LOSING A TOOTH
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
It means you’re growing up! Yeah, that’s true!
And it's something everybody goes through You lose and you win
It shows each time you grin
It's all a part of losing a tooth
It will leave me with an empty space... But another tooth will grow in its place.. But how will I chew?
Just like you always do
It's all a part of losing a tooth
Then there’s the fairy...
She’s the very best part
And this will put a smile upon your face With a tooth under your pillow
She slips in when it's dark...
And leaves you something special in its place!
Is that the truth?
Yeah, that's the truth!
It's all a part of losing a tooth
I can hardly wait for that day
When you stand up proudly and say: "It's out, and it's done!"
Yeah, that's just number one!
There's plenty more coming your way...
What about the fairy?
She’s the very best part
And this will put a smile upon your face
With a tooth under your pillow
She slips in when it's dark...
And leaves you something special in its place!
Is that the truth?
Yeah, that's the truth!
It's all a part of losing a tooth
I can hardly wait for that day
When I stand up proudly and say:
"It's out and it's done!"
Yeah, that's just number one!
There's plenty more coming your way...
Is that the truth?
Yeah, that's the truth!
It's all a part of losing a too-oo-ooth! And that's the truth!

SANCTUARY
Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz and Lily Yuan Lyrics by Stephen Michael Schwartz/Translation by Lily Yuan
Sometimes I stand up tall Sometimes I feel so small
But when the world looks scary I've got my sanctuary Surrounding me with gentle love
Most days I'm filled with light Some days are dark as night The situations vary
But in my sanctuary
There's only room for gentle love
Right here I feel so safe and warm This is my shelter from the storm
When I feel sad and blue
I know what to do
Life is not that scary
In my sanctuary
Surrounding me with gentle love
有我站得高 You shi wo zhan de gao 有我很渺小 You shi wo hen miao xiao 当世界怕怕 Dang zhe shi jie pa pa 我有我可的家 Wo you wo ke ai de jia 温暖的包我 Wen nuan de ai bao wei wo
Right here I feel so satisfied
No need to run, no need to hide
This world can weigh me down But there's one place I found Where things are light and airy In my sanctuary
Surrounding me with gentle love Gentle love

TOBY (THE WORST DOG)
Music and Lyrics By Stephen Michael Schwartz
TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
HIS BARK WILL MAKE YOU COWER
HIS BREATH CAN WILT A FLOWER
BECAUSE HE’S TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
I BOUGHT HIM AT THE POUND
THE CUTEST PUP AROUND
LITTLE DID I KNOW WHAT I WAS GETTING
I BROUGHT HIM HOME THAT DAY
I THOUGHT HE’D LIKE TO PLAY
HE CHEWED UP ALL MY SHOES
AND ATE MY FEATHER BEDDING
TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
HE ONLY WANTS TO CUDDLE
ONCE HE FINDS A MUDDY PUDDLE
BECAUSE HE’S TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
I TRIED TO TEACH HIM TRICKS
LIKE RUN AND FETCH FOR STICKS
HE LOOKED AT ME LIKE HE THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY
SO THEN I TAUGHT HIM STAY
HE STAYED THAT WAY ALL DAY
I NEVER MET A DOG WHO WAS SO DOG-GONE LAZY
TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
HE GOBBLES UP HIS FOOD
HE’S GOT A POOPY ATTITUDE
BECAUSE HE’S TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
SO WE BROUGHT HIM TO THE VET
WHO SAID YOUR PET IS REAL UPSET
BUT I BELIEVE I SEE THE CAUSE
IT’S RIGHT THERE ON HIS PAWS
SO THE DOCTOR TOOK HER FINGER
AND REMOVED A TINY STINGER
ONCE BELONGING TO A BEE
AND ONCE SHE GOT IT FREE
TOBY WAS AS HAPPY AS A PUPPY COULD BE!
NOW EVERYONE CAN SEE
THAT HE’S…
TOBY, THE BEST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
TOBY, THE BEST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
SO IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE GROUCHY
YOU CAN BET THEY HAVE AN “OUCHY”
JUST LIKE
TOBY, THE BEST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
HE USED TO BE
TOBY, THE WORST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
BUT NOW HE’S
TOBY, THE BEST DOG IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD

STATUES DANCE
Words and Music By Stephen Michael Schwartz
THERE’S AN OLD SAYING
“STILL AS A STATUE”
THAT’S WHAT THEY’D LIKE YOU TO BELIEVE, YEAH
BUT I’VE GOT SOME KNOWLEDGE
YOU WON’T LEARN IN COLLEGE
STATUES HAVE A FEW TRICKS UP THEIR SLEEVE
(SPOKEN): I see you out there! Watch out for the stops!
STATUES DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
STATUES DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES FREEZE
STATUES DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
THEY LOVE TO DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES FREEZE
STATUES LOVE TO DANCE DOWN LOW
HOW LOW CAN A STATUE GO?
STATUES LOVE TO REACH UP HIGH
STRETCHING UP TO THE SKY
STATUES DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
THEY LOVE TO PRANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES FREEZE
THEY LOVE TO DANCE TO THE MUSIC
THAT OLD-TIME FASHIONED MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES FREEZE
NOW STATUES LOVE TO FEEL THE BEAT
CLAPPING THEIR HANDS, STAMPING THEIR FEET
THEY LOVE TO SPIN AROUND AND AROUND
BECAUSE THE ROLLING STONES ARE THEIR FAVORITE SOUND
STATUES DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
THEY LOVE TO DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES FREEZE
THEY LOVE TO DANCE TO THE MUSIC
THAT GOOD OLD FASHIONED MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS, STATUES FREEZE
(SPOKEN): All right! I love those horns! Come on!
STATUES DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
STATUES DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES FREEZE
THEY LOVE TO DANCE TO THE MUSIC
TAKE A CHANCE WITH THE MUSIC
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES FREEZE
NOW WHEN THE KING SINGS, “DON’T BE CRUEL”
STATUES HOP OFF THEIR PEDESTAL
AND WHEN THE BEATLES SING “TWIST AND SHOUT”
AH… AH… AH… AH
THAT’S WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT, YEAH
STATUES DANCE
STATUES LOVE TO DANCE
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
THAT’S WHEN THEY FREEZE
THEY LOVE TO DANCE TO THE MUSIC
TAKE A CHANCE WITH THE MUSIC
BUT WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS
STATUES LOVE TO DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
THEY LOVE TO DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
THEY TAKE A CHANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC
THEN THOSE STATUES FREEZE
THEY FREEZE
THEY FREEZE
THEY FREEZE
THEY FREEZE
THOSE STATUES LOVE TO DANCE WHEN THEY HEAR MUSIC

DINOSAUR HUNT
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
WE’RE HUNTING FOR A DINOSAUR
I DON’T KNOW IF WE’LL FIND ONE
BUT IF WE DO I PROMISE YOU
IT’S GOING TO BE A KIND ONE
I’VE BEEN TOLD THE DESERT IS
THE PLACE THEY LIKE TO ROAM
I JUST HOPE WHEN WE FIND ONE
THERE’S ROOM FOR HIM BACK HOME
BECAUSE HE’S GOING TO HAVE A LONG NECK
SHARP CLAWS
HUGE TAIL
AND GREAT BIG JAWS
AND WHEN HE GETS HUNGRY
HE’LL BEGIN TO ROAR
HAVE NO FEAR WHAT WE HAVE HERE
IS A FRIENDLY DINOSAUR
AND WHEN WE FIND THIS DINOSAUR
HERE’S WHAT WE’RE GOING TO DO
WE’LL BE THE VERY FIRST ON EARTH
TO START A DINO ZOO
CHILDREN WILL SEE SOMETHING
THEY’VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE
A PLACE WHERE THEY COME FACE-TO-FACE
WITH A REAL LIVE DINOSAUR
BECAUSE HE’S GOING TO HAVE A LONG NECK
SHARP CLAWS
HUGE TAIL
WITH GREAT BIG JAWS
AND WHEN HE GETS HUNGRY
HE’LL BEGIN TO ROAR
HAVE NO FEAR WHAT WE HAVE HERE
IS A FRIENDLY DINOSAUR
HE’S GOING TO HAVE A LITTLE NECK
LITTLE CLAWS
TEENY-TINY TAIL
AND VERY LITTLE JAWS
AND WHEN HE GETS HUNGRY
HE WON’T KNOW HOW TO ROAR
HAVE NO FEAR WHAT WE HAVE HERE
IS A BABY DINOSAUR
THE SIGN WILL READ
“PLEASE DO NOT FEED THIS BABY DINOSAUR”
LET’S GIVE A CHEER
WHAT WE HAVE HERE
IS A BABY DINOSAUR!

ALLIGATOR PIE
Poem by Dennis Lee
ALLIGATOR PIE, ALLIGATOR PIE
IF I DON’T GET SOME, I THINK I’M GOING TO CRY
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY THE GRASS
TAKE AWAY THE SKY
BUT DON’T TAKE AWAY MY ALLIGATOR PIE
UP HIGH
DOWN LOW
ALLIGATOR BREAD, ALLIGATOR BREAD
IF I DON’T GET SOME
I THINK I’LL SHAVE MY HEAD
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY THE PILLOW
TAKE AWAY THE BED
BUT DON’T TAKE AWAY MY ALLIGATOR BREAD
UP HIGH
DOWN LOW
ALLIGATOR CAKE, ALLIGATOR CAKE
IF I DON’T GET SOME
I THINK MY HEART WILL BREAK
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY THE FRIES
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY THE SHAKE
BUT DON’T YOU TAKE AWAY THE ALLIGATOR CAKE
UP HIGH
DOWN LOW
ALLIGATOR PIE, ALLIGATOR PIE
IF I DON’T GET SOME, I THINK I’M GOING TO CRY
YOU CAN TAKE AWAY THE GRASS
TAKE AWAY THE SKY
BUT DON’T TAKE AWAY MY ALLIGATOR PIE

OWNEY’S SONG
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
I’M A POST OFFICE CLERK
HERE IN ALBANY, NEW YORK
DEVOTED TO MY WORK
BUSY AS A STORK
MAKING SURE THE MAIL
GETS TO EVERY NEIGHBORHOOD
NOW HERE’S WHERE THE STORY GETS GOOD
ON THE POST OFFICE FLOOR
UNDERNEATH A STACK OF MAIL
I THOUGHT I HEARD A “WOOF”
AND THEN I SAW HIS TAIL
WHEN UP FROM THE PILE
POPPED THE CUTEST PUPPY SMILE
THAT’S WHEN I FELL IN LOVE WITH OWNEY
WHEN YOU GO TRAVELING WITH OWNEY
YOU’RE NEVER IN A LONELY WORLD
WHEREVER OWNEY GOES
A CHAIN OF FRIENDSHIP GROWS
HE JINGLES WHEN HE WALKS
THAT’S HIS STAMP OF APPROVAL
YOU COULD NEVER FIND A BETTER CRONY
TO JOIN YOU ON YOUR DAILY RIDE
IF THE WEATHER TURNS BAD
THERE’S NO NEED GETTING SAD
AS LONG AS OWNEY’S BY YOUR SIDE
WE STACK ALL THE MAIL BAGS
ON THE HORSE AND CART
HEAD TO THE STATION
WHERE THE TRAINS DEPART
THE MAIL CAR IS LOADED UP
AND WHEN THE WHISTLE BLOWS
OWNEY HOPS ABOARD
AND AWAY HE GOES
AND SO THE LEGEND GROWS
ALL ABOARD!!!!
EVERYWHERE HE GOES IN THIS GREAT BIG NATION
OWNEY GETS A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION
EVERYWHERE HE GOES IN THIS GREAT BIG NATION
OWNEY GETS A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION
GO, LITTLE PUP!
OWNEY HAS BEEN HONORED
FROM SEATTLE TO QUEBEC
WITH TOKENS OF AFFECTION
PROUDLY PLACED AROUND HIS NECK
I’VE NEVER SEEN A DOG
COMMAND SO MUCH RESPECT
LET’S HEAR IT FOR OUR POST OFFICE POOCH!
EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT OWNEY
THE PRIDE OF THE U.S. MAIL
BAGS ARE TOSSED ABOUT
TRAINS GO IN AND OUT
BUT OWNEY KNOWS EXACTLY
THE ROUTE TO BE TAKEN
YANKEE DOODLE RIDING ON HIS PONY
WOULD BUCKLE UNDER SUCH A STRAIN
BUT WHEN THE WHISTLE BLOWS
EVERYBODY KNOWS
OWNEY’S RIDING ON THAT TRAIN
BUT WHEN THE WHISTLE BLOWS
EVERYBODY KNOWS
OWNEY’S RIDING ON THAT TRAIN
BOSTON BROOKLYN WICHITA
DENVER DAYTON OMAHA
ASHLAND OAKLAND SAN JOSE
NASHVILLE KNOXVILLE OYSTER BAY
FLAGSTAFF EVANSVILLE MUNCIE….QUEENS
ALBUQUERQUE LANCASTER NEW ORLEANS
LOUISVILLE JACKSON HOLE SYRACUSE
PASADENA LITTLE ROCK BATON ROUGE
EVERYWHERE HE GOES IN THIS GREAT BIG NATION
OWNEY GETS A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION
EVERYWHERE HE GOES IN THIS GREAT BIG NATION
OWNEY GETS A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION
EVERYWHERE HE GOES IN THIS GREAT BIG NATION
OWNEY GETS A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION

VALENTINE TREE
Words and Music by Stephen Michael Schwartz
UNDERNEATH THE VALENTINE TREE
SOMEONE SPECIAL WAITS FOR ME
WHEN TWO HEARTS INTERTWINE
THEY FORM A VALENTINE
UNDERNEATH THE VALENTINE TREE
MY PARENTS GAVE THIS GIFT TO ME
THEY PLANTED IT WHEN I WAS THREE
I GUESS THEY MUST HAVE KNOWN
I‘D NEVER BE ALONE
UNDERNEATH THE VALENTINE TREE
OH WHAT A JOY
A GIRL AND BOY
UNDER THIS CANOPY
THE BRANCHES SWAY
AS IF TO SAY
“MOVE A LITTLE CLOSER, IT’S VALENTINE DAY”
I’LL RECITE SOME POETRY
TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU MEAN TO ME
AND IF YOU’RE STILL IN DOUBT
I’LL BRING THE CHOCOLATES OUT
UNDERNEATH THE VALENTINE TREE
NOW BELLS WILL BE RUNG
AND SONGS WILL BE SUNG
CELEBRATING LOVE SO RARE
BUT UNDER THIS TREE
IT’S EASY TO SEE
THERE’S ENOUGH LOVE FOR THE WORLD TO SHARE
AND SOMEDAY WE WILL PLANT A TREE
LIKE MY PARENTS DID FOR ME
AND OUR LITTLE GIRL
WILL FIND HER OWN SPECIAL BEAU
LOVE WILL LIGHT THE WAY
AND OFF THEY BOTH WILL GO
INNOCENT AND FREE
JUST LIKE YOU AND ME
UNDERNEATH THE VALENTINE TREE
UNDERNEATH THE VALENTINE TREE
CUPID AIMED AND SHOT
AND HIT THE PERFECT SPOT
UNDERNEATH THE VALENTINE TREE

CALIFORNIA GREY
Words and Music by Patty Zeitlin
IN A QUIET WARM LAGOON
BENEATH THE SILENCE OF THE MOON
THERE’S THE LARGEST CELEBRATION ON THIS EARTH
THE WHALES PLAY AND MATE
AND, YES, THEY CELEBRATE
AND WHAT THEY’RE CELEBRATING THERE IS BIRTH
ON THE COAST OF CALIFORN’
A LITTLE CALF IS BORN
BUT A BIGGER BABE YOU’LL HARDLY EVER SEE
IT’S SIXTEEN FEET LONG
AND SIXTEEN HUNDRED POUNDS
IT‘S HARD TO BELIEVE BUT THAT’S A BABY
(CHORUS):
COME SAIL AWAY WITH THE CALIFORNIA GREY
ROLL ON THE OCEAN, ROCK ON THE SEA
WESTWARD SHE BLOWS, HOMEWARD SHE GOES
DOWN FROM THE ARTIC
TO THE SOUTH COUNTRY
THE CALIFORNIA GREY
WE WONDER WHAT THEY SAY
WHEN THEY SPEAK WITH GRUNTS AND SONIC SOUNDS
THEY ECHO-LOCATE
AND WHEN IT’S DARK AND LATE
THAT’S HOW THE MOTHER GUIDES HER CALF AROUND
NOW THE WHALES LEAP UP HIGH
STOP TO LOOK AT SEA AND SKY
I GUESS IT’S JUST TO GET A BETTER VIEW
THEY SPYHOP AND THEY BREACH
SOMETIMES DIE UPON THE BEACH
THE MYSTERIES OF THE WHALES ARE FAR FROM FEW
(REPEAT CHORUS)
NOW WHEN THE ENEMY ATTACKS
THE WHALES THEY TURN THEIR BACKS
FORMING ONE STRONG CIRCLE ‘ROUND THEIR YOUNG
AND THEN ALL THE WHALES
STRIKE THE OCEAN WITH THEIR TAILS
SPLASHING OUT THE WATER BY THE TON
THEY FEEL A LOT MORE PAIN
AND THEY’VE GOT A BIGGER BRAIN
SO I GUESS THEY’RE MUCH MORE GENTLE ANYWAY
THANKS TO THOSE WHO STOP THE BATTLE
WE DON’T SLAUGHTER THEM LIKE CATTLE
LONG LIVE THE CALIFORNIA GREY
HEY!!
COME SAIL AWAY WITH THE CALIFORNIA GREY
ROLL ON THE OCEAN, ROCK ON THE SEA
WESTWARD SHE BLOWS, HOMEWARD SHE GOES
DOWN FROM THE ARTIC
TO THE SOUTH COUNTRY
COME SAIL AWAY WITH THE CALIFORNIA GREY
ROLL ON THE OCEAN, ROCK ON THE SEA
WESTWARD SHE BLOWS, HOMEWARD SHE GOES
DOWN FROM THE ARTIC
TO THE SOUTH COUNTRY
