You & Me 00:29
(Featuring Alex Goldman) It’s you and me together (oh, yeah…) It’s you and me as one You and me together, having fun Hand in hand, side by side Push and pulling like the tide We go together, like icing in a cake Always forever, my captain your first mate It’s you and me together (oh, yeah…) It’s you and me as one You and me together, having fun Step by step Stride by stride Tumbling in tandem down the slide We go together, like hotdogs on a bun Always forever, under the summer sun It’s you and me together It’s you and me as one You and me together, having fun There’ll be days when we’re apart But you’ll always have a place in my heart. It’s you…. And me! It’s you…. And me! It’s you and me together (oh, yeah) It’s you and me as one You and me together, having… It’s you and me together It’s you and me as one You and me together, having… You and me together, having… You and me Together having fun! Together having fun! Together having fun!

Wanna Feel 00:29
Stick my foot in a bowl full of jelly Foot comes out and it smells quite smelly Laughter gurgles from the bottom of my belly Wooooah Run my hands on the skin of a lizard Cast a spell with the wand of a wizard Lick a pole in the middle of a blizzard Wooooah I wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like I wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like Eat a whole can of Popeye’s spinach Play Harry Potter in a game of Quidditch Gallop on a horse through an old Russian village Woooooah Fly up high in a helium balloon Tip my hat like a cowgirl in a saloon Stay up late, sleep all the way until noon Wooooah I wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like Wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like Rinse in a fountain, let the water wash over Roll to the ground, find a four-leaf clover Lift an elephant up on my shoulder Wooooah Tag along in the back of a lorry Jump in a frame of the never-ending story Keep calm and don’t you worry Wooooah I wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like Wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like I wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like Wanna feel, wanna feel what it feels like Wooooah, Wooooah, Wooooah

Stale Bread 00:29
Been sitting for days Hard as a rock Harvesting mold Bottom of the bowl Under the pears Getting old Covered in plastic It’s really fantastic How it tasted in its prime We waited too long I thought it was yours And you thought it was mine! Nobody wants to eat it Nobody will throw it away Nobody wants to keep And now it’s only wasting away! Stale bread……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread! ……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Sprinkled with nuts Rolled with oats And a bit of grain When I took a bite It satisfied My hunger pain Back when I bought it I wouldn’t have thought it Would last more than a day But you did a shop And bought a lot Of other groceries! Nobody wants to eat it Nobody will throw it away Nobody wants to keep And now it’s only wasting away! Stale bread……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread! ……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread! ……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread! ……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Stale bread! ……Buh-buh-bre-eh-ead Nobody wants to eat it!

This is the body that was given to me This is my body, this is my body I’m gonna love it so tenderly This is my body (Oooooohs) These are the eyes that I use to see, This is my body, this is my body These are the legs that run wild and free, This is my body Oh, I was made this way And you, a bit differently It’s not what’s on the outside but the inside that counts! This is my mind that I use to speak, This is my body, this is my body This is sole under my two feet, This is my body (Oooooohs) This is my belly that I use to eat, This is my body, this is my body These are my lungs that I use to breathe, This is my body Oh I was made this way And you, slightly differently It’s not what’s on the outside but the inside that counts! This is my pulse where I feel the beat This is my heart where the love runs deep These are my arms bringing you to me This is us both drifting off to sleep

Lost Sock 00:29
I lost my sock. Has anyone seen my sock? I think my laundry ate it! I miss it a lot, it was my favorite sock - the one with purple dots. I lost my sock. Maybe it went for a walk to get fresh air, cuz it's been stuck inside my shoe all day. It is so smelly. One is all I've got One half of a sad and lonely pair I'm plain out of luck I looked but cannot find it anywhere I lost my sock. When it went for a walk, couldn’t find its way home. It started to rain. My sock became a mop. Poor thing all alone One is all I've got One half of a sad and lonely pair I'm plain out of luck Now the other foot is cold and bare I sent my dog on a hunt to find my sock. He checked his favorite spot, under the willow tree. There it was so dirty, and my pup brought it back to me. And I was so happy. ‘Til I put it in the laundry…

When I woke up this morning, I pulled away the blind I stood there for a moment With the sun, in my eyes I imagined you were there In the room with me But something came and scooped you up I couldn’t see you I went about my daytime Doing all sorts of things But in the back of my mind I kept wondering Why it was you weren’t there In the room with me And when the sun sank down below I knew why finally Cuz you are a star, you are a star, you are a star You are a star, you are a star you are a star Every night from now on Before I go to sleep I will look up at the sky And you will look down at me Now I know that you are there Shining so brightly, yeah I know that you are safe And in good company Cuz you are a star, you are a star, you are a star You are a star, you are a star you are a star
