Magpie
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
The magpie has such a melodious voice and
Sings a melodious song
Through summer and autumn, winter and springtime
Morning then all the day long...just
Singing her song
Beetles and earthworms she likes to eat
Spiders and frogs and snails
Pecking the ground and strutting around
With the cheeky little willy wagtails
CHORUS
Her plumage is black with splashes of white
Her eyes are gold and brown
She fluffs up her feathers, carolls aloud
Protecting her piece of ground
CHORUS
September will come and she'll build her nest
High in a tall gum tree
With sticks and with grass and bark and we'll wonder
How many chicks there will be
The magpie has such a melodious voice and
Sings a melodious song
Through summer and autumn, winter and springtime
Morning then all the day long...just
Singing her, singing her, singing her song
Live It Up

Lyrics
We’ve been through some good times
And hard days too
But we’ve been all together
Friends the whole way through
Put on your dancing shoes
And shake off any lingering blues
There’ll never be a better chance
To get up, get up, get up and dance
Live it up, no need to wait
Now’s the time to celebrate
Live it up, don’t hesitate
Now’s the time to celebrate
And live live live ...live it up
INSTRUMENTAL
The sky is looking clearer
The clouds have gone away
The sun is shining brighter
It’s gonna be a great new day
Now that you are smiling
Now you’re full of cheer
I look at your face and it’s shining
Good times they are here
So put on your dancing shoes
And shake off any lingering blues
There’ll never be a better chance
To get up, get up, get up and dance
Live it up, no need to wait
Now’s the time to celebrate
Live it up, don’t hesitate
Now’s the time to celebrate
And live live live
Live it up, Live it up, Live it up
Live it up, No need to wait, Celebrate
Live it up, live it up
Live it up, live it up
Live it up, live it up
Live it up, LIVE IT UP!
Standing In The Shower
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
CHORUS
Standing in the shower at twenty past the hour
It's nice to just get very very wet
Twice every day it's the only way
You know what I mean, I love to be - clean
Shower in the morning, shower at night
Every time it feels so right
My wife uses gel, I prefer soap
She asks me to change, but I know I couldn't cope
There's nothing like a shower just before you go to bed
CHORUS
I wake up in the morning, make a cup of tea
One slice of toast it's enough for me
Put on my running shorts, then out the front door
I don't run far sometimes less can be more
But when I get back home I am so happy just to be
CHORUS
I've tried going to bed, knowing I was clean
But can't seem to relax, if you know what I mean
I lie there in the dark awake and feeling tense
I don't understand, it doesn't make sense
But obsessions never do, they're neither sensible nor logical
CHORUS
CHORUS
Standing in the shower, at twenty past the hour
It's nice to just get, very very wet
Twice every day, it's the only way
We know what he means
He loves to be (he loves to be)
He loves to be (he loves to be)
He loves to be – clean!!
Magic Carpet 123

Lyrics
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, higgle-dee-dee
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, take us flying
Over houses over trees
Holding tight on bended knees
Above the clouds across the seas
Let's go faster ple-ease
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, higgle-dee-dee
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, take us flying
Up we go and through the air
Faster faster we don't care
We just can’t stop because we're going
Faster than a boeing
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, higgle-dee-dee
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, take us flying
But now it's time to turn around
Glide towards the nearest town
Magic Carpet makes no sound as it
Touches gently down on to the ground
Magic Carpet 123, we've had such fun with a higgle-dee-dee
Magic Carpet 123, back on earth now, journey's over, sad is me
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, higgle-dee-dee
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying, higgle-dee-dee
Magic Carpet 123, take us flying
Take us flying....
The Emperor's New Clothes
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
CHORUS
Every day the people would stop, to look at the Emperor's new clothes
Sunshine or rain they'd all stop, to look at the Emperor's new clothes
To look at the Emperor's new clothes
He wore something different every day
All of his subjects would look at him and say
'You look so fine your majesty you do'
In your yellow and your red and your green and blue
CHORUS
Two sneaky swindlers arrived one day
Went to the Emperor and they did say
We'll make you the finest clothes in the land
Which a fool can't see but wise men can
They asked for some silk and golden thread
They put up two looms and then they said
We'll spin all the day and all through the night
From dusk until dawn and the morning light
CHORUS
The Emperor sent his servants to see
If the clothes were as fine as he thought that they would be
They looked at the loom there was nothing there
'We'll have to pretend, we do not dare'
To say that we see two empty looms
And no fine clothes anywhere in the room'
But the Emperor himself was curious to see
If the clothes were as lovely as he'd been promised they would be
And when there was nothing he was aghast and amazed
But decided that the swindlers should still be praised
He pretended to be pleased and just stood there spellbound - and said
'I will wear these fine clothes when I march through the town' - well
LAST CHORUS
The people next day all stopped, to look at the Emperor's new clothes
He marched down the street, they all stopped, to look at the Emperor's - new clothes
To look at the Emperor's new clothes'
You Like The Blue Sky And I Like The Gray
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
I like the cold days and I like the rain
Frost in the morning on wet window panes
Maybe I'm crazy to think in this way
You like the blue sky and I like the gray
I like the sun, the warmth of the day
Blue of the sky, children at play
I go to the seaside, walk on the sand
Then say my goodbyes with a wave of the hand
Winter and then spring, summer then autumn too
Seasons come and seasons go
I like the crisp of the long winter nights
The twinkle of stars and the bright city lights
And when I awake in the cold of the morn
The sun has come up and a new day has dawned
Winter and then spring, summer then autumn too
Seasons come and seasons go

Verse 1 & 2 together
Pinocchio's Nose
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
I would like to make something clear
Before I sing you this song
Pinocchio's nose was always
Just a teensy bit too long
CHORUS
Everybody knows when Pinocchio's nose
Grows and grows everybody knows
When Pinocchio's nose grows and grows
He's telling a lie and everybody knows
About Pinocchio's nose
He lied to his father
He broke the golden rule
Pretended that he, all of the day
Had been working hard at school (it was a lie)
CHORUS
Pinocchio was late for lessons one day
And so the teacher asked him why
He said 'There was a bird on the side of the road
And I stopped because it could not fly' (it was a lie)
CHORUS
Gepetto bought a book for his son
But he sold it for a puppet show
Pinocchio said 'I know that it's wrong
But Gepetto will never know' (another lie)
CHORUS (instrumental)
You'll be pleased to know that Pinocchio
Decided that he would be good
His nose is now just like yours and mine
In fact it's perfectly fine
Now everybody knows that Pinocchio's nose
No longer grows and everybody knows that
Pinocchio's nose no longer grows
And if you look him in the eye, he won't tell a lie,
He's happy as can be, so can we all agree
There's nothing more to say about...Pinnochio's nose
Rock This Little Baby

Lyrics
Rock this little baby, rock this baby to sleep
Rock this little baby, and take just a little peep
Then walk out the door, stop and listen
Then take another little peep, 'She's asleep!'
You've rocked this little baby
You've rocked this little baby
You've rocked this little baby – to sleep
Sing this little baby, sing this baby to sleep
Sing this little baby, a song about a black sheep
Sing a little song, soft and sweetly
Then take another little peep, 'She's asleep!'
You've sung this little baby
You've sung this little baby
You've sung this little baby – to sleep
Precious little baby, maybe maybe maybe
Sleep until the new day sun
Rises in the mornin', wake up with a yawnin'
You know that you're the cutest one
INSTRUMENTAL and you can
Walk this little baby, walk this baby to sleep
Walk this little baby, you don't need to take a peep
Walk round the block, no need to stop now
No need to take a peep, 'She's asleep!'
You've walked this little baby (you've walked)
You've sung this little baby (you've sung)
You've rocked this little baby (you've rocked)
And you've walked this little baby (you've walked)
You've sung this little baby (you've sung)
You've rocked this little baby - to sleep
Shh....
Welcome To The Autumn

Lyrics
Easter time in Autumn it's colder in the morning
The days are getting shorter, the nights are getting longer
CHORUS
Summer's going going away it's colder now with every day
So welcome to the Autumn, welcome to the Autumn
Welcome to the Autumn time the prettiest of all
Would you like to play some netball, would you like to play some football
It's practice on a Wednesday and matches on a Saturday
CHORUS
Yellow red leaves golden brown leaves
Falling down upon the path please
Do not sweep them all away they make a golden carpet scattered
Underneath the trees
The swimming pools are closing, the chilly winds are blowing
It's overcast and raining but there aint no use complaining
CHORUS
Summer's going going away, it's colder now with every day
So welcome to the Autumn, welcome to the Autumn
Welcome to the Autumn time the prettiest of
Welcome to the Autumn, welcome to the Autumn
Welcome to the Autumn time the prettiest of all
I Heard There Were Fairies...

Lyrics
I heard there were fairies down in the garden
Behind the trees and down in the garden
Clapping their fingers pointing their toes
Sprinkling fairy dust everywhere they go
Can you see them?
Fairy Blossom, Fairy Buttercup
Fairy Lily, Fairy Marigold
I heard there were fairies down in the garden
Behind the trees and down in the garden
Making fairy rings, flowers on the ground
All the little fairies dance all around
Can you see them?
Fairy Daisy, Fairy Poppy
Fairy Snowdrop, Fairy Daffodil
FAIRY DANCE
I heard there were fairies down in the garden
Behind the trees and down in the garden
Walking on tip toes waving their wands
Sipping on fairy tea singing their songs
Can you see them?
Fairy Bluebell, Fairy Rosebud
Fairy Lavender, Fairy Hyacinth
FAIRY DANCE
It's time for the fairies down in the garden
To go to sleep
Never No Never No Never

Lyrics
CHORUS
Three girls could never no never no never squash into an old paint tin
And three boys could never no never no never squeeze into a rubbish bin
But a thin Mum could slide through the crack in the old wall around at the back oh but
Three girls could never no never no never squash into an old paint tin
I suppose if the three girls were short girls not tall girls
Then a suitcase would be just the thing
With a little bit of squeeze and a little bit of squash
And a big bit of push they'd fit in - but I think
CHORUS
I once saw a magician climb into a letterbox
But he never told me how it was done
And I once saw twelve Daddies squash into a bathroom
But I don't think they found it much fun - and they said
CHORUS
Squash into an old paint tin
Squash into an old paint tin

Lyrics
I like toast and strawberry jam
At breakfast time it's the perfect plan
And when that's done it's ever so cool
To meet with my friends just before school
Crackers and cheese for my lunch
Together with an apple munch munch munch
The next thing I do and it's always the same
I sit down and play, play the game of
CHORUS (2x)
Rock beats scissors
Scissors beats paper
Paper beats rock
At 12 o'clock
Chicken vindaloo and long grain rice
With pumpkin and beans, very nice
Then head for bed every night
And just before Dad turns out the light we play
CHORUS (2x)
Rock beats scissors
Scissors beats paper
Paper beats rock
At 7 o'clock
So let me just tell you let me just say
I play and play and play it every day
It’s really just so easy if only you knew
We could play together, me and you – we play
CHORUS (4x)
Rock beats scissors
Scissors beats paper
Paper beats rock
At any o'clock
Paper beats rock
At any o'clock
Paper beats rock
At any o'clock
Any o'clock
Any o'clock
The Song About Captain Cook
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
In Marton town not far from the sea
There was a young boy who grew up to be
A Yorkshire man in every way
From Whitby town to Robin Hood's Bay
At the age of 18, a labourer's son
Fit and strong and six foot one
He dreamed of a life on the wide open sea
And knew that soon that's where he would be
CHORUS
He sailed from Plymouth away from England
Cape Horn, Tahiti then Botany Bay
On the good ship Endeavour and onto where ever
The coast of Australia showed him the way
From master to captain he was just 41
Saw planet Venus transit the sun
He sailed to New Zealand as Tasman had done
Then Terra Australis the land of the sun
CHORUS
In 1770 the 11th of June
On the Great Barrier Reef by the light of the moon
The Endeavour she crashed on the rocks on the sand
The captain said we must put her to land
When the ship was repaired they set off again
Along the coast of Cape York no one knew when
How long it would be, how much further to roam
They longed for the sight of their far distant home
CHORUS (repeat)
They'd sailed from Plymouth away from England
Cape Horn, Tahiti then Botany Bay
On the good ship Endeavour and onto where ever
The coast of Australia showed them the way

Lyrics
If the wind blows cold, your teeth will chatter
If you eat too much, your tummy will get fatter
If you stay out in the sun, longer than you oughta
And your throat gets dry, you'll need a lot of water
If you stand in the rain, you'll get a little wetter
If you go inside, you'll probably feel better
If you run too far your face will soon be red
And you'll have to go inside, and lie down on your bed
You'll have to go inside, and lie down on your bed
Lie down on your bed
Up Up Up Into The Sky

Lyrics
Up up up into the sky
Flying flying flying high
Circle around, up and down
Gliding along, singing a song
Up up up into the sky
Flying high
Up up up into the sky
Flying flying flying high
The wind may blow the sun may shine
But whether the weather is rainy or fine it's
Up up up into the sky
Flying high
Some People
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
Some people talk, go for a walk
Some make a fuss, walk to the bus
Some catch a train, walk in the rain
Or ride a jet plane
Some people like, riding a bike
Some like to run, gray skies or sun
Then there's a few, who like to do
Nothing at all, nothing at all
There's nobody who's like you it's
True no one is the same
We live in many different places
And we have different names
CHORUS
There are seven billion people
Who live on this earth today
There are some at work and there are some at play in
Seven billion ways
CHORUS (repeated)

Lyrics
CHORUS
Sing it, sing it, sing a pretty melody
Play it, play it, together in a symphony
Clap your hands, rhythm and the beat
Everybody swayin' and a dancin' in the street
If you sang with me, just the melody
Maybe we could then, try the harmony
Sing the melody, try the harmony
Sing the melody
CHORUS
If I sang to you, all the lower notes
And if you sang to me, all the higher notes
All the lower notes, all the higher notes
All the lower notes
CHORUS
We now sing this song, every single day
You should sing it too, it's the only way
Every single day, it's the only way
Every single day – SO
CHORUS (repeated)
Nod When It's Yes
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
Fingers like to walk and walk and
Voices like to talk and talk and
Heads like to nod when the answer is yes
But shake when it's no then nod when it's yes
Brains like to stop and have a good think and
Eyes like to stare until they blink
The hairs on your head like to twist and curl
It's the same if you're a boy or if you're a girl
Hands like to wave when they say goodbye
It can make you sad it can make you cry
But the tears will go and after a while
There will be upon your face a brand new smile
