Monkeys & Miracles

LYRICS!

MONKEY SEE, MONKEY DO

Monkey see, monkey do

I’d like to play a game,

How about you?

Can you see what I see?

Can you do what I do?

Would you like to

Swing in the trees?

Hang from branches by your knees?

Way up in the canopy

You will see things differently

Monkey see, monkey do

I’d like to play a game

How about you?

Can you see what I see?

Can you do what I do?

We both have our fingers and toes

I know more that you think I know

When I climb up high in a tree

I’ve got a tail that balances me

Monkey see, monkey do

I’d like to play a game

How about you?

When you see what I see

You will see everything differently

You will see everything differently!

FLOATING ZOO (A-Z)

This is a story about a

Great big boat

When it started to rain

Then it started to float

The animals all knew what to do

They all got on board

The floating zoo

Anteaters, Beavers, Cats and Dogs

Great big Elephants

Tiny little Frogs
Goats and Horses, Iguana’s too

Everybody’s here on

The floating zoo

Jaguars jumping over Kangaroos

Lions, Monkeys swinging

From the roof

Nightingales, Owls and

Peacocks blue

Everybody’s here on

The floating zoo

The animals all knew what to do

Everybody’s here on

The floating zoo

Quail and Roosters

“cockle doodle doo!”

Snails and Tigers, Unicorns too!

Vipers and Weasels

FoXes, Yaks, Zebras

Everybody’s here on

The floating zoo

The animals all knew what to do

Everybody’s here on

The floating zoo

Sun came out

A beautiful day!

Rainbow shone to light the way

The animals all knew what to do

They all came out of

The floating zoo

They all came out of

The floating zoo

They all came out of

The floating zoo

They all came out!

(Unicorns are true?)

FAST

There’s a fast train

There’s a fast train coming

There’s a fast train

There’s a fast train coming

It zooms right by me

Down the track

Rush of wind and

Clickety clack

Schedule says it’s

Coming back

(Whou ooooouuuuuuu)

Fast, Fast

There’s a fast plane

There’s a fast plane coming

There’s a fast plane

There’s a fast plane coming

Loopdy loop up in the sky

Trail of cloud

It leaves behind

Can you hear it flying by?

(Whirl, whirl, whirl)

Fast, Fast

There’s a fast car

There’s a fast car coming

There’s a fast car

There’s a fast car coming

Cruises by the centre line

Shiny chrome and

Bright head lights

Can you hear it driving by?

Vroommmmmmm….

Fast, Fast, Woo Who, Fast

CASTLE OF SAND

I built a castle of sand

I built a castle of sand

Down by the sea

There on the beach

I built a castle of sand

I built a castle of sand

Down by the sea

There on the beach

I built a castle of sand

Then came the waves and the wind

All of it came crashing in!

I built a castle

(It was a sight to see!)

I built a castle

(Fit for her majesty)

I built a castle

(If you’d been here yesterday…)

I built a castle of sand

LIGHT IT UP!

Camping in AlgonquinPark

Have to get up in the dark

Can’t see the path ahead of me

What can I use so I can see?

(I know…a flashlight!)

Light it up! Light it up now!

Light it up! Light it up now!

There is a boat lost at sea

I will shine my bright light beam

Over the water, through the fog

Can you tell me what I’m called?

(I know…a lighthouse!)

Light it up! Light it up now!

Light it up! Light it up now!

Light it up! Light it up!

Light it up! Light it up!

If I have a friend

Who’s feeling blue

There is one thing I can do

I carry it with me place to place

Until it shows up on my face

(I know!… It’s a smile!)

Light it up! Light it up now!

Light it up! Light it up!

Light it up! Light it up!

Light it up! Light it up!

Light it up! Light it up now!

BLACK LIGHTNING

There’s a legend the cowboys tell

Mystery Horse untamed

A Mustang black as coal

Black Lightning was his name

See him up on

The mountain range

Way down low by the river’s edge

Blink your eye

Never see him again

No one can catch Black Lightning

He runs as fast as the wind

If you hear the sound

Of thunder coming

You’ll know

Black Lightning rides again

There was a cowboy

Thought he’d try

To make a hurricane his friend

Threw a lasso

Around Lightning’s neck

Just can’t tame the wind

He held on over rocks and stones

Grassy plains where buffalo roam

He let go, never tried it again

No one can catch Black Lightning

He runs as fast as the wind

If you hear the sound

Of thunder coming

You’ll know

Black Lightning rides again

He rides again!

MIRACLES

A rainbow, rainbow, rainbow

Rainbow is beautiful

I like the colors it brings

A humming bird, humming bird humming bird, humming bird

Is wonderful

It has the quickest of wings

All these things are miracles

The more I look, the more I see

From the smallest to the greatest

These are miracles

Just like you and me

A sunrise, sunrise, sunrise

Sunrise, is glorious

I like the warmth that it brings

A caterpillar, caterpillar, caterpillar caterpillar’s magical

When it opens its butterfly wings

All these things are miracles

The more I look, the more I see

From the smallest to the greatest

These are miracles

Just like you and me

Do you believe in miracles?

Deep in my heart, I really do

When the impossible

Becomes possible

That’s a miracle, just like me and you

A thundercloud, thundercloud thundercloud, thundercloud

Is rumbling

I like the rain that it brings

A honey bee, honey bee, honey bee honey bee is circling

To add to the sweetness of things

All these things are miracles

The more I look, the more I see

From the smallest to the greatest

These are miracles

Just like you and me

Just like you and me

Just like you and me

Just like you and me

Just like you and me
