Here’s your chance A brand new dance Mind your step Pep-i-di-pep Do The Woopsie To the right Nice and light To the left Good as you get Do The Woopsie Climb the stairs Hands in the air Twisting low As low as you go Do The Woopsie Make your mark Glow in the dark Going on a holiday I’m going to dance my cares away Woop woop woop woop Do the Woopsie Shake your head Shake your tail Float your boat Raise your sail Do The Woopsie

Mosquito In the middle of the night In the middle of my dreams Buzzes through the window by my bed Mosquito Like an arrow taking flight Like a needle sharp and bright Cuts straight through the darkness to my head Little Miss Mosquito Wants to spend the night with me Little Miss Mosquito Little Miss Mosquito Wants to stick her knife in me Little Miss Mosquito Mosquito I wake up ready to fight She is ready but to bite I am big and she is very small Mosquito Is she here or is she there? I can hear her everywhere Dancing like a shadow on my wall Little Miss Mosquito… Mosquito She takes aim and then she strikes I reach up turn on the light She is on the ceiling out of reach Mosquito She is quiet then she dives I am left with itchy hives She has sucked my blood just like a leech Little Miss Mosquito…

Leaves on the trees I said leaves on the trees They move with the wind They move with the rain Leaves on the trees They’re at it again Leaves leaves leaves leaves leaves leaves Leaves on the trees The jungle is jumping The jungle is wild Full of dirty creatures Smile and then they eat you The jungle is jumping Come closer my child She sneaks through the green I said she sneaks through the green She’s long and she’s snaky She slides on the ground She sneaks through the green She’s never been found Sneaks sneaks sneaks sneaks sneaks sneaks Sneaks through the green The jungle is jumping… They eat with their teeth I said they eat with their teeth They don’t like bananas Don’t give them a treat They eat with their teeth And they’re screaming for meat Meat meat meat meat meat meat Meat with their teeth The jungle is jumping…

Don’t believe what I say Don’t believe what I say Don’t believe a word I am telling you Don’t believe what I say My name is Marvin, I live in a tree My little brother is older than me My mother’s a giant, my father’s a dwarf My brother’s a hermit, lives under a wharf Don’t, don’t Don’t believe what I say… My uncle eats cabbage, he lives on the moon He breathes through his ears and he eats with a spoon His wife is Gemima, she climbs to the stars Has breakfast on Venus and dinner on Mars Don’t, don’t Don’t believe what I say… None of it’s true Except I love you My aunty’s got two legs, my sister’s got four My granny’s so fat she can’t fit through the door She looks like a dragon all covered in scales Her husband’s a dolphin and swims with the whales Don’t, don’t Don’t believe what I say…

PARADISE 03:44
Got a short fuse A red hot temper I get mad May to November Want to slow down Open my eyes ‘Cos I live in paradise I get angry I get mean I get nasty ghastly I cause a scene I get ugly I blow steam I jump up and down till my face turns green Got a short fuse… I get nowhere Then I scream I yell quite a lot but don’t say what I mean I’m a nightmare Not a dream I’m an exploding corroding machine Got a short fuse… I get shirty And I frown I can’t tell the difference between up and down I play dirty I’m a clown I hiss and I spit and I fall to the ground Got a short fuse… I wear trouble Like a crown So far underwater I’m starting to drown Like a bad smell I’m around I huff and I puff till I’m run out of town
11.
In your pyjamas You stare at the sky Mercury, Venus and Mars Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and others There’s a lot of blackness Between all the stars Light years away The sun burns a hole in the sky In the sky In the sky Can you see me? I can see you Mercury, Venus and Mars Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and others Please send me a message Like a falling star Light years away The sun burns a hole in the sky In the sky In the sky

POM POM SONG 02:42
Pom Pom Pom Pom P P P P P Pom Pom Pom Pom Where’d you get your pom pom from? Got my pom pom in Hong Kong Not too short and not too long Come and sing the pom pom song Pom Pom… Do you wear your pom pom pom When you play some fast ping pong? Yes oh yes I ping and pong Come and sing the pom pom song Pom Pom … I will miss your pink pom pom I will miss it when you’re gone We will go to Hamilton Come and sing the pom pom song Pom Pom…
13.
Bees got six knees And they fly with a humming sound Buzz from the hive Every day when the sun shines down Bees got to go Cos they know where the pollen lies Zooming from flower to flower As the hours go by We need the bees Need the bees Bees like a sweet nectar treat Suck it up inside Race back to home Honeycomb, that’s the food supply Bees need a queen Egg machine, she’s a busy girl Bees come and go Don’t you know, it’s a buzzy world We need the bees Need the bees
