HAIR 03:02
CHORUS: Hair Why is it there? People stop and people stare Everywhere When I walk out of the door It flows from my armpits and down to the floor When I go out in the street It grows from my head down to my feet When I smile it gets in my mouth I'm so hairy west, north, east and south When I eat it gets in my food I'm so hairy I never get nude No-one can tell if I'm happy or sad No-one can tell if I'm good or I'm bad I brush my body and I brush my teeth U'm hairy above and I'm hairy beneath When I look it gets in my eyes I see the world through a hairy disguise When I cry it wipes up my tears I've been hairy for months and for years

MEEP 01:48

Playing with puss in the garden I have got nothing to fear Sweet little pussycat loves me forever And never would cause me to shed any tear We dig small holes and we leap after butterflies Birds flutterby in the afternoon afternoon And then...pussy claws And she scratches me Puss is so sorry she hurt me She has that look in her So I forgave her, to return the favour She gives me a lick where the blood trickles by We play 'til lunchthen we go the kitchen Where mother is fixing a sandwich with ham and cheese Then...pussy claws And she scratches me Civilized pussies don't hurt you They're like your bestest of friends I tell her that as she sits on the mat By the end of my bed And we both make amends We read a book about lions in the jungle With pictures of jauguars going for the jugular Then...pussy teeth Then...pussy claws Then...pussy smiles ...

THUNDER BOX 03:12
Thunder box Doing the Thunder box Bring the rainmaker (Boom Boom) There’s going to be a storm tonight Make the earth shake (Boom Boom) Jumping up and down all through the night CHORUS: We’re going to do a dance Like a lightning storm Never in the same place twice Move it all around At the speed of sound Come on everybody Don’t play nice Thunder box Doing the thunder box Wind grows higher (Boom Boom) There’s going to be a storm tonight Your feet are on fire Boom Boom) Jumping up and down all through the night Bring it on Bring it on Thunder rolling (Boom Boom) There’s going to be a storm tonight Devil patrolling Jumping up and down till morning light

1. You’re a drip You join With others Of your kind From the lakes To streams To oceans You come as rain To earth From dark clouds Above Always in A downward Motion We try and catch Your drippiness We need it For life We try and squeeze You into A series Of pipes You’re a drip You’re a drip You’re a drip 2. We turn on Our taps And out you Just come We’re lazy We like it That way And when we’ve had enough It’s easy We just turn you off And trapped in Our plumbing You stay You seem so clean We drink you We wash and We spray And when we’ve finished Unplug you You just go Away You’re a drip You’re a drip You’re a drip Fish swim in you Dive down deep 3. We call you drink And liquid And water And bath And puddle And dampness And rain We sip and We swallow Eventually We flush Thanks for coming Nice to see you Again Where do you go Where are you headed So moistly And wet Out to the sea And oceans And rivers I bet You’re a drip You’re a drip You’re a drip

TUG 02:16
If you want to pull a boat Then who do you call Tug Tug If you want to push and shove With your back to the wall Tug tug Get it to the harbour Then get it out Forward or backwards Inside out CHORUS: We just can’t do without our Tug Tug Don’t doubt it Sound the alarm And full steam ahead Tug Tug Take it or leave it You’ll go where you’re led Tug Tug Who’s got the power Who’s got control Harbourmaster says It’s time to rock’n’roll Tug tug Salt in the water Salt in the air Tug Tug Brave little boat She just don’t care Tug Tug Could be an iceberg Could be a whale Could be a taniwha Lashing with its tail We love our Tug Tug
7.
FAR AWAY 02:40
Far away The ship sets sail On to foreign islands CHORUS: Time to leave Time to go Cos the tides tells me so Come with me On a wing and a prayer Let the winds take us far Far away Floating gently Out to sea Dolphins leap beside us Up we go And down the other side Fast then slow This rollercoaster ride Storm clouds pass The ship sails on Flying fish to guide us
8.
MEDUSA 03:20
They call her Medusa The Belle of the Ball They wine her and dine her But she has no brains at all CHORUS: Medusa Medusa The Belle of the Ball She glides to the ballroom She looks like a queen She twirls and she dances As if she’s in a dream She’s pretty and she’s dangerous She’s like a wish come true She is just a jellyfish Her body is see-through They call her Medusa The Belle of the Ball She goes with the flow But she has no heart at all
9.
TIME GOES BY 03:36
Bury me under a tree Let the great moonbeam Smile down on me Bury me under a stone Let the birds sing So I won’t be alone CHORUS: I will rise Just like a sunflower My face to the day I will fly Through the effortless hours That get tick tocked away Time goes by Show me the mountains and streams Let me ride the wind To the land of your dreams Show me more Secrets now spoken Will unlock the door Look at the ground down below Smallest spring seedlings Are starting to grow Look at the stars up above For millions of years They have witnessed our love
10.
INSECTERCISE 02:55

Insects Insects Bend those knees All six of them Together please Except for spiders You have eight And centipedes Now don’t be late 3. Insects Insects Lift those weights Especially ants Just concentrate Build those muscles Hard and strong Come on now It won’t take long 4. Stretch those legs! Bend those knees! Lift those weights! 1,2 3 Insect power Insect might The Insect Army Will march tonight!
