Song Lyrics and MP3 Samples
I Go Bananas For Bananas
"I Go Bananas For Bananas" MP3
Some say it's boring to be a monkey. All day long I sit in a tree
There's no computer, there's no TV. All I do is swing
Everyday it's more of the same. There's no movies, I don't play board games
There's no monkey school. Oh, what a shame. So all I do is sing
Chorus
I go bananas for bananas. I go nuts for nuts
I go cuckoo for the cuckoo bird, that sings all day in her tree
We go bananas for bananas. We go nuts for nuts.
We go cuckoo for the cuckoo bird that sings all day in her tree.
It's a wonder the birds flying by, bugs in the ground, the clouds in the sky
The rushing river, the mountains so high. the fish down in the sea.
Humans worry always so stressed. Their minds are foggy. Their lives are a mess.
The monkeys secret I must confess; Life should be fancy free.
Chorus
If you want a life full of joy. Whether you're girl or boy
It won't take money or a box full of toys. It's the simple things we need.
Eat some berries take an afternoon nap. I like to find my grandma and sit in her lap.
Swing through the branches drinking tree sap. It's the simple things indeed.

It's a Beautiful Day
"It's a Beautiful Day" MP3
Chorus
It's a beautiful day. Everything is okay.
I'm gonna go and play outside. It's a beautiful day.
The air is so clear. It hadn't rained this year, yet.
Then it rained all morning. The grass and sidewalks are all wet.
Every things cooled down. Waters soaked into the ground.
The birds are singing now. What a wonderful sound.
Chorus
I'm gonna walk to the store. I'm gonna take my sweet time.
I'm gonna breathe in the air. I'm gonna think of a rhyme.
Maybe I'll write a poem about the sky being gray.
Maybe I'll write a song about a beautiful day.
Chorus
I've got a red rubber ball. I'm gonna go to the park
And we'll play two teams until it gets dark.
All my friends will be there and we're joking around.
It's the best day yet this year in our part of town.

Elephants Like Ballet
"Elephants Like Ballet" MP3
Elephants like Ballet. They like doing bar in their toe shoes
Elephants like to plie in their pink tights and their tutus
But when they take a tumble, there's often a rumble
As they shake the entire school. Elephants like to dance Ballet.
Monkeys they love to waltz. Step, step, step, stepping in tandem
When they fall down it's nobody's fault, 'cuz they do their stepping at random
As they dance in the branches, dodging leaf avalanches
Always appearing so cool. Monkeys they love to dance the waltz
When an animal dances, it increases the chances of subtle side glances across the floor
And these fine circumstances,promote fine romances
That often lead to what the french call amor
Junkyard dogs really dig rhumba. The rhythms are hot. Man, oh man!
They howl at the moon for the bongo and tuba.
They paw at the ground for the cats in the band
They dance with such style on a tire junk pile
Careful to follow the rules. Junkyard dogs really dig the rhumba.

Dirty Joe
"Dirty Joe" MP3
I'm dirty Joe, I'm known east to the West as the dirtiest fella alive.
I get dirty at night, dirty in the morning. I get dirty from 9-5.
Got dirt 'tween my toes, dirt up my nose, dirt all over my shirt
I got dirt in my ears It brings mom to tears. I'm a giant walking hunk of dirt
Chorus
The water's on and it is filling up the bathtub and I'm getting ready to go.
I got my rubber ducky a floatin' T-Rex and soap for washing off those toes.
There's a warm blue towel for me when I'm ready. A big brown bear that I call teddy
I'll put on my pj's (and) hear a bedtime story then It's time to turn the lights down low
People always stare when I go anywhere. My clothes always look such a muss.
I know something should be done when the people start to run and mum starts to make such a fuss
Well I know I'm not the cleanest feller and I know I'm a bit of a smeller.
I ain't no flower, I'd better take a shower I'm walking in a cloud of dust.
Chorus

Find Me a Leprechaun
"Find Me a Leprechaun" MP3
All of my problems would vanish. If I had some fish in my pond.
Before I get old, I want me some gold so find me a leprechaun.
Chorus
Find me a leprechaun. Find me a leprechaun
Before I get old I want me some gold so find me a leprechaun
I don't have Jack's giant beanstalk. I don't have a wizard's wand
But there's magic my friend at The rainbows end, so find me a leprechaun
Chorus
Bridge
I like drinking soda. I like eating pie.
I love to lie in my hammock as the world goes by.
I am not partial to working. I'm somewhat a vagabond
I know that it's crazy. I like being lazy so find me a leprechaun
Chorus
Bridge
I'm driving in my old jalopy. It's stalled and it will not turn on.
I'm holding up cars, from here back to mars just find me a leprechaun.
Find me a leprechaun. Find me a leprechaun.
Don't have gold ore yet, still I want a corvette, so find me a leprechaun.
Chorus

Pizza Polka
"The Pizza Polka" MP3
If I had a pizza, pizza, pizza... If I had a pizza, I'd give you a slice.
A slice with pepperoni, roni, roni, a slice with pepperoni, wouldn't that be nice?
Go dial up the number of your local pizza guy. Ask him for some soda and a pizza pie.
If I had a pizza, pizza, pizza. If I had a pizza, I'd give you a slice.
A slice with powdered donuts, donuts donuts.
A slice with powdered donuts, wouldn't that be nice?
When I hear a polka I'm footloose and fancy free. When I eat a pizza I get energy
We love pizza. Yes we do. We love dancing this is true.
We've found a way, combine the two and dance the pizza polka.
If I had a pizza, pizza, pizza. If I had a pizza, I'd give you a slice
A slice with peanut butter, butter, butter. A slice with peanut butter, wouldn't that be nice?
There's the bell, go to the door and turn on the porch light.
Pay the man, grab a slice and take a bite.
If I had a pizza, pizza, pizza, If I had a pizza, I'd give you a slice
A slice with turkey gravy, gravy, gravy. A slice with turkey gravy, wouldn't that be nice?
We'll dance the polka, all night long, this fun will never end
Take a slice, take me hand and we'll be friends.
We love pizza yes we do. We love dancing this is true
We've found a way, combine the two and dance the pizza polka.
And dance the pizza polka
Dance the pizza polka

I Dig Pigs (from the musical "The Three Little Pigs")
"I Dig Pigs" MP3
Hey I'm a wolf, I hope you dig this tune
I'd rather be singing a song than howling at the moon
I'm not a regular wolf with fur all over my feet
I like being clean, sharp dressed and neat
That's me the big bad wolf
Now I'm not so bad, I'm a super cool guy
Promise cross my heart, stick a needle in my eye
I'll do anything you ask, sing a song, dance a jig
As long as you aren't, A pinkly yummy pig
Chorus
Cuz I Dig Pigs, Puffy, Plump and Pink
Pork Chops, Pig Pie , and Porky Piggy links
Yeah I dig Pigs, Aw', c'mon, please
Gimme a sausage breakfast in bed or a bacon, lettuce and cheese
Pigs hit close to home, If you know what I mean
They're like chocolate cake, cotton candy and ice cream
To have them in my tummy, is yummy, yummy , yummy
But when I''m hanging around, they aren't likely to get chummy
Let me put it this way I lose my cool round pigs
I freak out, flip over and really blow my wig
In my favorite dream of all I am sitting with knife and fork
In front of a plate of potatoes, peas and salted pork
I can't stop the shakes (pigs), I'm tripping to the max (pork)
I close my eyes and count to ten and I still can't relax (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7...)
My eyes are gettin' bloodshot (red) my mouth - it's starting to drool (spit)
My fingers itch, my palms clam up, I really lose my cool
Chorus

Worms — They Really Hit the Spot
"Worms — They Really Hit the Spot" MP3
In the dark the deep, the thick of the mud
There's something great to eat, when you're feeling like a dud
It's something that is tasty, Though it's not sugary or sweet
Actually it's quite healthy, and it's my favorite treat
They're called
Worms - they really hit the spot, Worms - you can find 'em in your flower pot
Worms - served chilled or steaming hot, Worms - they're a culinary jackpot
The Sultan on Brunei says their his favorite dish
The Emperor of Japan likes them with raw fish
The crown prince of England eats them after school
And President George Bush he always starts to drool around
Worms - they're great in Texas Stew, Worms - still alive when cut in two
Worms - Enjoy them all year long, Worms - You just can't go wrong with Worms
They're delicious in a sandwich, or on our favorite meat
Fried up crisp with garlic or dried out in the heat
Aged in wooden barrels so they're tender to the touch
And even when they're raw, you don't have to chew 'em much
Worms - they season naturally, Worms - so there's no need for MSG
Worms - They'll make you big and strong, Worms - how I love their song
Sammy always eats them before he goes to bat
Sumo wrestlers chew them before they hit the mat
Tiger often nibbles dried ones on the green
M.J.'s pictured on the cover of "Worm Life" magazine
Worms - They'll improve your game, Worms - get you in the hall of fame
Worms - You could win the MVP, Worms - I would love a shopping spree for Worms
Grandma's recommend 'em 'cuz they're sugar free
Grandpa's take 'em everyday, they aid the memory
They're good for little ones, because they help us grow
And with minerals and vitamins, mom's love 'em so
Worms - Father's love 'em too , Worms - 'cuz there great with BBQ
Worms - they've become so chic , Worms - hey that birds got one in his beak
There's a million dollar painting "Worms" by Claude Monet
The novel "Worms at Sea" written by Hemingway
There's a soap called "Worms and Nurses" at 2:00 on ABC
And worms they were the subject of Mozart's final symphony
Worms - brown or pink or grey, Worms - a pound of fresh ones everyday
Worms - you should try the worm buffet , Worms - Have you seen the broadway play about Worms

Grand Prix Taxi
"The Grand Prix Taxi" MP3
Chorus
I've got a grand prix taxi. You're riding with me. Racing stripes front to back,
It's fast as can be. Rolls around the track like lightning at 103
Check your seat belt. Put your helmet on tight.
Take a deep breath. There's the green light.
1st gear... 2nd gear... 3rd gear... 4th gear...
Chorus
Gotta make a pit stop and check all the wires.
We're gonna get some gas and change all the tires.
4th gear... 3rd gear... 2nd gear... 1st gear
Chorus
They wiped the windshield. Changed a gasket that blew.
Now we're ready to roll thanks to our favorite pit crew.
1st gear... 2nd gear... 3rd gear... 4th gear...
Chorus
If you're getting car sick on the dash is a bag
I've got the pedal to the metal. There's the checkered flag
4th gear... 3rd gear... 2nd gear... 1st gear
Our little taxi won the grand prix.
They're giving us flowers and a great big trophy
It's so rad. I'm so glad that you rode in my taxi with me

Chorus
With These Hands
"With These Hands" MP3
With these hands I can climb the highest mountains
With these hands I can sail across the sea
With these hands I can search for hidden treasure
With these hands I can build a bridge between you and me
Sometimes I wonder why I was brought here
I've been struggling for so long
Sometimes I tremble when I am filled with fear
Then I remember you then I am strong
With these hands we can climb the highest mountains
With these hands we can sail across the sea
With these hands we can search for hidden treasure
With these hands we can build a bridge between you and me
