What’s black, and what’s white.
And read all over - every day?
It‘s the newspaper mama, newspaper mama,
Newspaper mama every day.
What’s thrown – over the fence
And into the garden – every day?
It‘s the newspaper mama, newspaper mama,
Newspaper mama every day.
Read it over breakfast every
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Saturday
And ‘specially on Sunday – best day of all.
What’s black, and what’s white.
And read all over - every day?
It‘s the newspaper mama, newspaper mama,
Newspaper mama every day.
Now what do you get – when you open the door
Every morning – of every day? –
You get the newspaper mama, newspaper mama,
Newspaper mama every day.
You get the newspaper mama, newspaper mama,
Newspaper mama every day.
Jack and the Beanstalk

Lyrics
Fe fi fo fum
I smell the blood of an Englishman
Be he alive or be he dead
I’ll grind his bones to make my bed
Jack climbed the beanstalk
He was only ten years old
And watched as the giant
Was counting up his gold
The giant soon got sleepy
He soon began to snore
Jack grabbed a bag of gold and quickly
Scampered out the door
And down the beanstalk Jack scurried
Close to the ground he jumped and hurried
Back to his Mum who was very worried
‘Look Mum we don’t have to be poor any more’
Fe fi fo fum…
Jack climbed the beanstalk
On the very next day again
He found the giant wide awake
And talking to his hen
'Lay me a golden egg’
He heard the giant say
And when the giant fell asleep
Jack stole the hen away
And down the beanstalk Jack scurried
Close to the ground he jumped and hurried
Back to his Mum who was very worried
‘Look Mum we don’t have to be poor any more’
Fe fi fo fum…
Jack’s mother begged him
To never climb up again
But Jack said,
'Just one more time
And that will be the end
He crept up to the giant
Who was playing a magic harp
And quick as a flash and without a sound
He snatched it in the dark
Then down the beanstalk Jack scurried
Close to the ground he jumped and hurried
Back to his Mum who was very worried
One blow with the axe down under
The giant fell with a crash like thunder
Jack said 'Look Mum the giant’s dead -
We don’t have to be poor anymore’

Jeffrey Hill liked to cook in the kitchen when
His mother was asleep in bed
But when she awoke and saw what he was doing
Her face was filled with dread – he had
CHORUS
Eggs on his legs, milk on the chair
Sugar on his nose, flour in his hair
Mrs Hill said, “I know you like cooking,
But please do it when I’m awake
I’d like to be around to help with your creating
And avoid some of the mess you make” – things like
CHORUS
Jeffrey cooked a cake for his mother on Mother’s Day
It was to be a big surprise
He tried not to slop things all over the kitchen
But it’s hard when you’re only five – he still got
CHORUS (repeated)
He got – beans on his jeans, goo on his shoe
Peas on his knees, jelly on his belly
Sauce on the horse, fat on the cat
Toast on the post, spaghetti on the jetty
Prunes on the moon, buns on the sun
Onions on his bunions, stickers on his knickers
Eggs on his legs, milk on the chair
Sugar on his nose, flour in his hair
Red Balloon
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
She was playing with her red balloon
Tossing it up into the air
Throwing and kicking and
Blowing and punching and
Running and jumping and
Skipping and putting it
Onto her head
It was the best friend she ever had
She never seemed to ever get tired of
Throwing and kicking and
Blowing and punching and
Running and jumping and
Skipping and putting it
Onto her head
But balloons have a very short life
She didn’t do anything wrong
But sad my friend I have to say
At 12 o’clock on the very next day
Her balloon went – BANG!

The postman came on a Monday
And put a letter in the letterbox (echo)
The postman came on a Tuesday
And put a letter and a frog in the letterbox (echo)
The postman came on a Wednesday
And put a letter and a frog and a mouse
In the letterbox (echo)

And a spider and a snail in the letterbox (echo)
The postman never ever came again
He was fired and he was told that he
Was a very silly boy!

Juicy juicy green grass
Where have you gone?
Will you come back?
Juicy juicy green grass
Summer’s been so dry
Turned you into brown
Will you come back?
Juicy juicy green grass
I’m so hungry now my tummy’s rumbling around
I’d better take a rest I’d better go and lie down
I’ve never been so hungry, I’ve never been so hungry
I’ve never been so hungry before
Juicy juicy green grass
How I love to chew you
So will you come back
Juicy juicy green grass
I really really need you
For breakfast lunch and tea
So will you come back
Juicy juicy green grass

And I will sing you one last song
You look so very sleepy

My boiled egg was nice and soft today
Soft today, soft today
My boiled egg was nice and soft today
And that’s the way I like it
My piece of toast was rather hard yesterday
Hard yesterday, hard yesterday
My piece of toast was rather hard yesterday
But that’s the way I like it
I had some cheese and it was in between
Not too soft, not too hard
I had some cheese and it was in between
But that’s the way I like it
Soft boiled egg, hard piece of toast
Cheese in between yes that’s the way I like it
Take a Bath

Lyrics
Tell me now, when did you last take a bath?
Yesterday? The day before? The day before that?
You can’t remember can you?
Listen now, dirt is a very bad thing?
I know for sure your Mum and Dad
Will be so pleased
When you are sparkling clean
CHORUS
So don’t forget to wash your face and
Scrub behind your ears
Underneath your arms as well and
Round behind your neck
Scrub your tummy and your back
Your ankles and your knees
And when you’ve finished don’t forget
To pull the plug out please
Did you know, I have a friend called Jim
Who hasn’t had a single bath for 26 days?
Nobody goes near him – Ughh!
But yesterday, Jim’s mother called me on the phone
And she said, ‘You’ll never guess who’s in the bath
And squeaky clean?
Let’s give a cheer for Jim – HOORAY!
His mother said –
CHORUS
Thankyou very much
Sweet Dreams and Teddy Bears

Lyrics
In the day time sunshine
In the night time moonlight
In the morning blue skies
In the evening starlight
And every day is followed by every night
Stay awake and then snuggle up tight
Sweet dreams and teddy bears tonight
Sweet dreams and teddy bears tonight
Ride a bike in the day time
Play your guitar at night time
Go for a walk in the morning
Sit round the fire in the evening
Day time’s the time when you can play
Night time’s the time when grown-ups say
Sweet dreams and teddy bears tonight
Sweet dreams and teddy bears tonight
Pussy cats go a-prowling
By the silvery moon
Spooky sounds by my window
On a wintry night in June
Stay away from my window
I’m too scared to even peep
Pussy’s nice in the daytime
But leave me be now I need my sleep
But Mr Sun will always
Light up your morning
It’s a daily miracle
The sunrise at dawning
And every day is followed by every night
Stay awake and then snuggle up tight
Sweet dreams and teddy bears tonight
Sweet dreams and teddy bears tonight

Why don’t we jump jump jump
Jump in the air air air?
Why don’t we squash squash squash
Squash in a chair chair chair?
Why don’t we bend bend bend
Bend at the knees knees knees?
Why don’t we stand up tall
Tall as the trees trees trees?
Why don’t we walk walk walk
Walk down the street street street?
Why don’t we stamp stamp stamp
Stamp with our feet feet feet?
Why don’t we drive drive drive
Drive in a car car car?
Why don’t we fly fly fly
Fly to a star star star?
Why don’t we dive dive dive
Dive in a pool pool pool?
Why don’t we swim swim swim
Get nice and cool cool cool?
Why don’t we scrub scrub scrub
Scrub in the bath bath bath?
Why don’t we giggle and grin
Have a good laugh laugh laugh?

Yesterday I had a body and a tail
A body and a tail, body and a tail
Yesterday I had a body and a tail
Today I’ve got two legs as well
CHORUS
What is happening to me?
Whatever can it be?
I’m not very happy and that’s because
I liked the way I was
Well blow me down it’s happening again
Happening again, happening again
Blow me down it’s happening again
There’s two legs growing at the front as well
CHORUS
Uh-oh, what’s going on my tail is getting shorter
Tail is getting shorter, tail is getting shorter
What’s going on my tail is getting shorter?
It’s going, going, gone – oh no
CHORUS
Well, now I’m a frog and I’ve more or less got used to it
More or less got used to it, more or less got used to it
But sometimes a tadpole swims up to have a quiet chat
And I know what he’s going to say
CHORUS
Now listen, it’s really rather nice to be a frog
And live at the bottom of a bog
So don’t be concerned or worry about a thing
Come on and sing sing sing
La la la la la la la…
