Laser Beans
02:13
|

Lyrics:
Well
We make a pretty good team
Like peanut butter and laser beans
Wait that’s not what I mean
I meant to say jelly
What can you do when your animal cracker
Gets broken in two
Take it to a vet
Keep it for a pet
Or do you just eat em
It’s fun to be
Silly sometimes
Looking at the world through googly eyes
It’s fun to be
Silly sometimes
Looking at the world through googly eyes
Now what in the world is making me sneeze
What’s causing these allergies
Maybe it’s the pepper tree
I planted in the garden
Once I saw a circus troupe
Doing a loop de loop
When they were done
They gave everyone
Two scoops of soup
Well it’s fun to be
Silly sometimes
Looking at the world through googly eyes
It’s fun to be
Silly sometimes
Looking at the world through googly eyes
Well
We make a pretty good team
Like peanut butter and laser beans
Wait that’s not what I mean
I meant to say jelly
It’s fun to be
Silly sometimes
Looking at the world through googly eyes
It’s fun to be
Silly sometimes
Looking at the world through googly eyes

Nobody Does it Better
02:28
|

Lyrics:
It’s a perfect day to ride a bike
A perfect day for a hike
Perfect day for a wagon ride
Perfect day to play outside
Perfect day to sing along
Perfect day to dance along
Perfect day for feeling strong
It’s a perfect day to just be you
Nobody does it better
It’s a perfect day to just be you
Nobody does it better
Sometimes it starts to rain
But then the sun comes out
You see a rainbow
It was supposed to be cloudy all day
Sometimes we’re feeling blue
We put on our favourite shoes
And we know just what to do
A perfect day to just be you
Nobody does it better
It’s a perfect day to be just you
Nobody does it better
A perfect day to play in mud
A perfect day to give a hug
To help someone feel better
A perfect day for standing tall
Remember should you fall
It’s a perfect day to just be you
It’s a perfect day to just be you
Nobody does it better
It’s a perfect day to just be you
Nobody does it better

Peanut Butter Hair
02:15
|
|||
Lyrics:
There was a girl with peanut butter hair
Birds chased her everywhere
She made a hat
Looked just like a cat
Then Dogs chased her everywhere
So, she made a car
To help her go real far
To make a wish upon a star
She made a wish
And met a magical fish
He told her
Don’t change who you are
No
Don’t change who you are
You and your mind will go far
If you really need to be freed
Just give those birds some seed
I knew a girl with peanut butter hair
Birds still chased her everywhere
She didn’t care
No she didn’t care
She spread her birdseed everywhere
And over time
Yeah over time
She knew her powers
Cause on the path that she took every day
Grew thousands of sunflowers
I knew a girl with peanut butter hair
She didn’t care
She didn’t care
I know a girl with peanut butter hair
Birds still chase her everywhere
Oh I knew a girl with peanut butter hair
Birds still chase her everywhere
I know a girl with peanut butter hair
She doesn’t care
She doesn’t care

Lyrics:
My dinosaur
Likes to roar
My dinosaur
Likes to roar
She likes to see things
At the store
Oh

She tries to sing me
Silly songs
When the sun is shining
All day long
My dinosaur
Likes to roar

She likes to roar
She likes to see things
At the store
My dinosaur
Likes to roar
My dinosaur
Likes to roar

The Tractor Song
02:36
|
|||
Lyrics:
Big Bertha was a tractor
I used to look after
We’d ride through the fields every day
Up at the break of dawn
She liked to sing me songs
The horses watched us making the hay
The horses watched us making the hay
Her lights were so bright
We’d drive till late at night
She liked to snack on crackers and tea
Driving all the ups and downs
She never ever went to town
The country life was the life for her and me
Said the country life was the life for her and me
We’d plow those fields in the fall
So next summer’s oats and barley would grow tall
We’d work from morning until night
Making sure everything was done just right
Big Bertha was a tractor
I used to look after
We’d ride through the fields every day
Up at the break of dawn
She liked to sing me songs
The horses watched us making the hay
The horses watched us making the hay
We’d plow those fields in the fall
So next summer’s oats and barley would grow tall
We’d work from morning until night
Making sure everything was done just right
Oh we’d plow those fields in the fall
So next summer’s oats and barley would grow tall
We’d work from morning until night
Making sure everything was done just right

Little Owls
03:20
|
|||
Lyrics:
Little owl looking for your branch
Morning moon setting in the West
Hard to believe how much time has passed
Little owl sitting on your branch
Time flies when we’re having fun
Not so much when there’s things to be done
Try to be patient
Try to be kind
All things come when it’s time for their time
All things come when it’s time for their time
Three hundred sixty-five days in a year
Try to greet each one with a smile and a cheer
Time can spring forward
Time can even fall back
Little owl sitting on your branch
Time flies when we’re having fun
Not so much when there’s work to be done
Try to be patient
Try to be kind
All things come when it’s time for their time
All things come when it’s time for their time
Time flies when we’re having fun
Not so much when there’s things to be done
Try to be patient
Try to be kind
All things come when it’s time for their time
All things come when it’s time for their time
Little owl searching for your branch

Big Sky
03:31
|
|||
Lyrics:
The sky is so big
It can make me feel small
But I’m growing up yeah
I’m getting tall
Maybe one day
I’ll fly up through those clouds
In a big old jet airplane
That is nice and loud
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Somedays the clouds are so low
Seems like they’re touching the trees
Sometimes when it’s foggy
Clouds are bumping into me
Using my imagination
Look at that cloud over there
I can see a crocodile
With funny hair
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
If the clouds go to bed
Any time after dark
The stars shine so bright
Like thousands of sparks
The sky is so big
It can make me feel small
But I’m growing up yeah
I’m getting tall
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
Big sky
