Morning bells are ringing, morning bells are ringing Ding, ding, dong, Ding, ding, dong Frere Jacques, Frere Jacques, Dormez-vous, Dromez-vous?

| Thunderation Thunder, thunder, thunderation. We're the Girl Scout Association. We have fun and determination We create a sensation! |
| Swatting Skeeters (tune: "I'm Forever blowing Bubbles") I'm forever swatting skeeters Little beasts that buzz and bite. They're always nigh, in earth and sky, And like my dreams they come at night. They are always hiding, They are everywhere, I'm forever swatting skeeters, Little demons of the air. |
| Land of the Silver Birch Land of the Silver Birch Home of the beaver Where still the mighty moose Wanders at will Chorus: Blue lake and rocky shore I will return once more Boom did-y-ah-di-Boom-did-y-ah-di-Boom-did-y-ah-di Boom. My heart is sick for thee Here in the lowlands I will return to thee Hill sof the north Chorus Swift as a silver fish Canoe of birch bark By mighty waterways Carry me forth Chorus High on a rocky ledge I'll build my wigwam Close to the water's edge Silent and still Chorus |
| I'm a girl scout (tune: Brother John) I'm a girl scout, I'm a girl scout. Who are you? Who are you? Can't you tell by looking? Can't you tell by looking? I'm one too. I'm one too. |
| Music Alone Shall Live (Round) All things shall perish from under the sky, Music alone shall live, music alone shall live, music alone shall live never to die. Tout doit sur terre mourir un jour, Mais la musique, Mais la musique, Mais la musique vive toujours. Himmel und erde musen vergebn, Aber die musica, Aber die musica, Aber die musica bleibert bestehn |
| Girl Scout Cookies #1 (Tune: Are you Sleeping?) Girl scout cookies, Girl Scout cookies, Yum, yum, yum, Yum, yum, yum Eat 'em by the dozen, Eat 'em by the dozen, They're all gone, They're all gone. |
| Girl Scout Cookies #2 (tune: Jingle Bells) Chorus: Girl scout cookies, Girl scout cookies, Shortbreads are the best, healthy & nutricious and we like all the rest, HEY! Girl scout cookies, Girl scout cookies, Thin mints are great too. We love the new and old ones, We love them all, Do you? Dashing to the fridge to get a glass of milk, before we got to bed & cover up with quilts, Bells on all the girls try to sell the most, What fun it is to eat them all, instead of eating toast! Oh, chorus |
| Girl Scout Cookies # 3 (tune: Oh Susannah) Oh we come from Buffalo & Erie Girl scout cookies for all to sell. We see every Sue & Sally. Our good message for all to tell. Girl Scout cookies! Boy they are so neat! So many kinds, So good to taste! Hard to know which one to eat. |
| Growing up Girl Scouts (Tune: Brownie Smile Song) Daisies "I've something in my pocket..." That's what the big girls say. I'll have a pocket of my own, When I wear brown someday. My life is bright and easy, I smile most of the day. I'm having loads of fun now, I sing and laugh and play! Brownies I've something in my pocket, that belongs across my face. I keep it very close at hand in a most convenient place. I bet you'll never guess it if you guessed a long, long while. I'll put it on and show you now, It's a great big Brownie Smile! Juniors "I've something in my pocket..." That's what I used to say. I spent my time so aimlessly, At home, at school, at play. Now every day is special, I'm searching, who am I? Only I can find that out, Please let me have a try! Cadettes "I've something in my pocket..." That's what I used to say. PLaying chilhood games with friends, seems just like yesterday. I'm becoming a young woman, Soon I'll be a child no more. There's loads of opportunities and so much more to explore. Seniors "I've something in my pocket..." That's what I used to say. Then mother nature waved her hand and childhood flew away. Today my needs are different, I wonder, "What will I be?" I'm making life decisions now, the choices are up to me. Leaders I have something in my pocket, that's what we always said, But now we are the leaders, Teaching them instead. We teach them when they're young, We guide them when they're old, We watch them grow up strong and tall, And that is out reward. |
