Spring Chicken
One mother hen laid four little eggs
Keeping them warm in her little egg nest
Then one day she heard a crack
And a little voice said as the egg was hatched
I’m a spring chicken, I’m yellow and small
My feathers are fluffy and they’re keeping me warm
My legs are not long so I’ll never be tall
But I’m a real spring chicken and I’m having a ball
I’m a chicken, I’m a chicken and I’m having a ball / Peter Rabbit has a Fly upon his Nose
Peter rabbit has a fly upon his nose
Peter rabbit has a fly upon his nose
Peter rabbit has a fly upon his nose
He flipped it and he flapped it and the fly flew away
Floppy ears and curly whiskers
Floppy ears and curly whiskers
Floppy ears and curly whiskers
He flipped it and he flapped it and the fly flew away
Chick Chick Chick Chick Chicken
Chick, chick, chick, chick chicken
Lay a little egg for me
Chick, chick, chick, chick chicken
I want one for my tea
I haven’t had an egg since Easter
And now it’s half past three
So, chick, chick, chick, chick chicken
Lay a little egg
Lay a little egg
Lay a little egg for me
