Jumping' jumprope for all they got
Down the road comes Samantha Sue:
"I like to jump rope. Can I jump, too?"

Hot and peppery
Double dip, double flip.
Double jeopardy
OK, that's enough!
Grits and gravy. Bagels

I am
the cute one
I am the cute one
It's obvious
There's no comparing
The two of us
I'm not to blame
The facts are plain
I've got the looks
I've got the brains
And I am the cute one
She's just my sister
I am the cute one
Everyone knows
I've got the profile
She's got the nose
She's the older
I am the younger
So after all is it any wonder?
I am the cute one
She's just my sister
People say we're two peas
in a pod
And that we look like each other
There's something that they forgot
I am the cute one
She's just my sister
I'm not to blame
The facts are plain
I've got the looks
I've got the brains
And I am the cute one
She's just my sister
People say we're two peas
in a pod
And that we look like each other
There's something that they forgot
We're no the same whatever you say
I love her and she's OK
But I am the cute one
She's just my sister
You wish
I am the cute one
She's just my sister
Untrue
I am the cute one
She's just my sister
I'm sorry
I am the cute one
She's just my sister
Brocolli and Chocolate
One day I was shopping in
my local grocery store
I grabbed a big bar of chocolate
As I was heading for the door
I tossed the chocolate in my cart
Beside a stalk of broccoli
They started talking. Talking? Yes!
At first I didn't believe
This is the story of
broccoli and chocolate
It made the people talk alot
About broccoli and chocolate
A very happy pair
He said, "You make me
feel yummy."
She said, "Mmmmmm, you make me melt."
The first time a veggie and a candy bar
Could tell each other how they felt
She said, "Being with you is delectable."
He said, "Being with you is a treat."
He was bright, bright green with envy
Because she was so sweet.
It's all about broccoli
and chocolate
It made the people talk alot
About broccoli and chocolate
A very happy pair
As I was walking home
that day
The sun was so hot on my grocery bag
The chocolate melted, the broccoli wilted
When their voices stopped, I felt sad
But when I got home...what did I have?
Brocco-chocoli!
Now i like brocco-chocoli
alot
Mom, it really hits the spot,
That broccoli and chocolate
A very happy pair
And that's the story of broccoli and chocolate
It made the people talk alot
About broccoli and chocolate
A very happy pair
Man this song makes me
hungry
Oh, me too. It must be time for my favorite treat
What be that?
Oh, you know what that is
Broccochocoli?
Choco-broccoli!
Broccoli and chocolate a very happy pair
Ida
Know
I've got a friend named
Ida. I really like her so
Her first name is Ida. Her last name is Know.
So when I'm caught red-handed
Here's what I do:
I say "I didn't do it
It was you know who..."
Who put ketchup on the
floor? Ida Know
Who put crayon o n the door? Ida Know
When your mother tells you "shame"
And you need someone to blame,
Just remember Ida's name: Ida Know
Who ate Oreos in bed? Ida
Know
Hit the baby on the head? Ida Know
If there's trouble and they find it,
Smile and tell them who's behind it
Just one kid could mastermind it: Ida Know
Ida Know-
She's the one who wouldn't shush
She's the one who wouldn't flush
She's a lot of fun to play with
Wo wo wo-
It's the only way to go
Cause when you know Ida Know
There's so much you get away with
Who forgot to do her math?
Ida Know
Put a goldfish in the bath? Ida Know
Stuck a finger in the strudel
Used a vacuum on the poodle
Come on, kiddo, use you noodle: Ida Know
So if you do something
wrong-Ida Know
You can sing this little song-Ida Know
But if this one doesn't do
here's another one for you:
Ida Wanna-she's good, too
Ida Wanna?
Yes you do
Ida Think So
Yeah her too
Ida Thought So
She's gone to Idaho
Ida Who?
Are we through?
Ida Know
My
Horse and Me
I had this dream
That I owned a horse
His name is River
He comes when I call
He's black and white so he stands out
And when I ride him I fell so tall
My horse and me
We ride around the world for there's so much to see
And I would never give him up for all the puppies in the world
For I just wanna be my horse and me
I know it's hard to care
for a horse
I will protect him from winter's chill
Oh, what a dream. Could it come true?
Will I find River and ride him in the hills?
My horse and me
We ride around the world for there's so much to see
And I would never give him up for all the puppies in the world
For I just wanna be my horse and me
I just wanna be my horse and me
I
am a kid
I am a kid. Let's get
that right
I'm red and yellow. I'm black. I'm white
On a sunny day, on a stormy night
Gonna toot my whistle, gonna shine my light.
I am a kid.
I am a kid.
I am a kid.
I'm a kid. I'm a kid. I'm a k-i-d.
A k-i-d, that's me.
I am a kid. Let's get
that straight.
I'm seven. I'm eleven. I'm five. I'm eight.
They say I gotta grow up but I can wait.
I love love. And I hate hate.
I am a kid.
I am a kid.
I am a kid.
I'm a kid. I'm a kid. I'm a k-i-d.
A k-i-d spells me.
I'm a kid. I'm a kid. I'm a k-i-d.
A k-i-d and that spells me.
I am a kid. Just wanna
say "Hi"
Life is tough but so am I
Even on that rainy day
I'm gonna be okay.
Chorus:
I am a kid (I'm a k-i-d)
I am a kid (I'm a k-i-d)
I am a kid (I'm a k-i-d)
I'm a k-i-d.
I'm just a kid tryin' to
have some fun
Without hurtin' anyone
I'll sing until I'm done.
I am a k-i-d.
Now you might think that
I talk too loud.
Or maybe you think my head's in a cloud.
But I'm just a kid, doing my thing.
Singing what only a kid can sing.
Chorus
Come on along and be a
kid with me.
Cause every kid has got a right to be
It's time for kids to make some history.
So everybody let you kid be free.
Yakety
Yak
Chorus:
Take out the papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spending cash.
If you don't scrub that kitchen floor
You ain't gonna rock and roll no more.
Yakety yak. Don't talk back
Just finish cleanin' up
your room
Let's see the dust fly with that broom
Get all that garbage out of sight
Or you don't go out Friday night.
Yakety yak. Don't talk back.
Yakety yak. Yakety yak.
Yakety yak. Yakety yak.
Talkity talkity talkity talk.
Sqawkity sqawk. Sqawkity sqawk.
You just put on you coast
and hat
And walk yourself to the laundromat
And when you finish doin' that
Bring in the dog and put out the cat.
Yakety yak. Don't talk back.
Chorus
Yakety yakety yakety yak.
I'm sickety-sick of all the flak
Sqawkity sqawk. Sqawkity sqawk.
Don't talk back!
Yak yak yak yak yak yak

Yakety yakety yakety yak.
Talkity talk. Talkity talk.
Yakety yak. Yakety yak.

No one
tells the president what to do
Someday I'd like to be
President.
It's a job that's caught my eye.
I know I'd enjoy being President
And here's the reason why.
No one tells the
President how to dress.
No one bugs him if his oval office is a mess.
No one tells him when it's time to mow the White House lawn.
And if anybody tried to you can be they'd soon be gone.
No one tells the
President not to slouch.
No one says, "Don't put you feet on Mr. Lincoln's couch."
No one tells him "Company's here. Use your fork and spoon"
Unless they want to be the next Ambassador to the moon.
Chorus:
No one tells the President,
No one tells the President,
No one tells the President what to do.
No one tells the
President not to run.
No one says, "There's no dessert until that speech is done"
No one says, "The Press is coming. Clean behind your ears"
Unless they want a "time out" that will last the next four years.
Chorus
She'll change all the
rules.
The kids'll run the schools
She'll be on the side of girls and boys.
She'll fix all the laws.
She'll be like Santa Claus
And her cabinet will overflow with toys.
No one tells the
President how to speak.
(Parent: Ashley!)
No one says "You can't be on TV for one whole week."
(Parent: Time to eat!)
So when I've had enough of "Time to eat" and "Where've you been"
I'm headin' down to Washington to get myself sworn in.
'Cause no one tells the
President
(Parent: Mary-Kate!)
No one tells the President,
(Come on!)(Time to wash up)
No one tells the President what to do.
No one tells the President,
No one tells the President,
No one tells the President what to do.
(I'm gonna count to three.)
No one tells the
President,
(One...)
No one tells the President,
(Two...)
No one tells the President what to do.
(Two and a half...)
No one tells the President,
(Young ladies, I mean it!)
No one tells the President, No one tells the President what to do.
(Now!)
Coming! See you on
Election Day.
Don't
let your Mom go shopping
Well mom, you know I love
you. You mean so much to me.
I love the sense of style you got from Oprah on TV.
I love the way you've don't the house, the paintings in the hall.
But why'd you buy these clothes for me down at the mall?
You say the salesgirl
told you this stuff was really great.
This stuff was not in style, Mom, when you can Dad used to date.
And if you make me wear it, my friends will laugh at me.
Is this some kind of weird, new child psychology?
Chorus:
Don't let your mom go shopping on Saturday all alone.
You'll have to find some kinda way to make her stay at home.
But if there's something that ya need you'd better go along
Or your mom will get you something that's wrong
Oh, Yuck!
The Sleeping Beauty
slippers, the macramé barrettes.
The undershirt with zippers, the sneaks that look like pet,
The Day-Glo plastic raincoats-it's uglier than sin.
And about the Bambi lunchbox...Earth to Mom, come in!
Who'd you buy the pants
from? An archaeologist?
And isn't plastic leopard skin on the Endangered List?
It itches and it bulges. It rides up in a bunch.
It dates back to the 50's. It's just plain out to lunch.
Chorus
Mom, tell me I'm dreaming.
There's got to be some horrible mistake.
Mom, it's like a nightmare. But one look in my closet and...ahhhrrg! I'm wide
awake!
Mom: Oh, this is adorable.
Oh, and it's on sale. Oh, "All sales final"
She'll love it!
Your mom will get you something that's wrong.
I'm goin' off to school
now in shoes of powder blue.
I won't look in the mirror cause I might not make it through.
I'm meeting my friend Connie. Look, her shoes are powder blue.
It's clear to see that her mom went shopping too.
Chorus
yes, she'll get ya
something,
Your mom will get ya something that's wrong,
Your mom will get ya something that's wrong.
We
love to scream
We don't like the
merry-go-round
We get tired of swings
We prefer the bumper cars
And other scary things
All we want to do is ride the Big Dipper
We want to fly in the sky.
"Cause we love the roller
coaster
That's making Daddy green
Yes, we love the roller coaster
Cause we love to scream
Yes, we love to scream.
*screams*
We like hanging upside
down
And whipping round the bend
Hold your breath and close your eyes
'Cause here it comes again
All we want to do is ride the Big Dipper
And see the ground disappear
'Cause we love the roller
coaster
Where Mommy won't be seen
Yes, we love the roller coaster
Cause we love to scream
Yes, we love to scream
*screams*
All we want to do is ride
the Big Dipper.
We want to fly in the sky
'Cause we love the roller
coaster
That's making Daddy green.
Yes, we love the roller coaster
Cause we love to scream
Yes, we love to scream
Moms
song (We think we'll keep you)
Moms are special people
They hug you all the time
They help you do a lot of things
You might be scared to try
They take us to the playground
The movies and the zoo
Mom, we're really lucky
Cause we've got you
When we get in trouble
As little angels can
We know we're gonna get that look
From our biggest fan
She let's us know we messed up
And sometimes she gets made
But even then, she's still the best mom
Two kids ever had
Oh, Mother, we need you
every day
We think we'll keep you
Oh, Mother, we love you
Even more than songs can say
You're funny and you're
smart
Yuu finish what you start
If we could, we'd elect you
President of the Mothers
No matter where you go
We hope it always shows...
You're the very best Mom we know
Oh, Mother, we need you
every day
We think we'll keep you
Oh, Mother, we love you
Even more than songs can say
You're the very best,
specialest person in the world
