High Roller 02:07
I got a footrest and a seatbelt, a tray for all my snacks I’ve got diapers, wipes and cheerios in the pocket round the back I’ve got a one mom-power engine to take me for a spin And I got the whole thing riding on 3.5 inch rims I’m the kind of kid that’s a natural born high roller You can see it in my eyes, man I was born a rock’n’roller I’m the kind of kid every kid would like to be I’m cute as a button man how could you not love me Everybody stops to look at me and smile Cause when I step out on the block I step out in style I got a onesie with a dinosaur, I got a big old floppy hat I got a paci and a juice box ‘cause I’m crazy like that Sometimes things get crazy back home at my crib Sometimes I eat breakfast wearing nothing but a bib That food starts a’flying, I’m a touch out of control I’m living on the edge but that’s just the way my stroller rolls

I woke up this morning and guess what I found A big broken branch and leaves on the ground Well momma says sometimes branches just fall But I know better that’s not it at all There’s a dinosaur living in my back yard He’s bumping into trees and eating people’s cars I’ll tell you all again like I did from the start There’s a dinosaur living in my backyard On the side of the house over by the garbage pails I found four big dinosaur scales Momma says those are just garbage can lids But sometimes moms aren’t as smart as their kids Last night he must a have made an attack Because I found the bones from his dinosaur snack Momma says that’s nothing but a shovel and a rake But sometimes even moms make mistakes I just found a big black dinosaur egg It’s starting to hatch and I can see its legs Dad says that’s just his barbeque But I wouldn’t go near that thing if I were you
3.
I put a piece of chocolate in my pajama pocket And then I went upstairs to take a nap When that chocolate melted a million ants smelled it And they crawled up my leg into my lap So I jump up and down, I wiggle all around Everybody’s telling me to chill I know this isn’t good, I’d chill out if I could But I’ve got ants in my pants and I can’t sit still I went and told my mom exactly what went on As I bounced around I asked her what to do She said oh, honey-baby that sugar made you crazy No more sweets before nap time for you It made my mother laugh when I jumped in the bath I must have been quite a sight to see The part that really got her was when she fell into the water With the million red ants and me

Sippy Cup 01:39
Playgroup starts at ten I want to see all my friends again But mom is moving extra slow today We grab some toys and a snack for me We pile into the SUV But we’ve got to make a stop along the way Mommy’s got her grown up sippy cup We go to Startbucks to fill it up They put the lid on the top just like the one I use I don’t know what they put inside But it makes her eyeballs open wide No thanks I think I’ll stick to apple juice I used to think that when I grew up I wouldn’t need a sippy cup But now I’m starting to think that that’s not true I look around at these older kids They don’t seem to need cups with lids But for some strange reason All these grownups do

When I was a kid I was a shy kid too When I was a kid I was a shy kid just like you My shyness didn’t last too long Now I’m up here singing these goofy songs But when I was a kid I was a shy kid too Things changed for me, things will change for you We’ll all change a little bit before this song is through Things changed for me, things will change for you Change is what we do When I was a kid I was a short kid too When I was a kid I was a short kid just like you Now nobody calls me small ‘Cause I‘ve grown to be over 6 feet tall But when I was a kid I was a short kid too When I was a kid I was bouncy kid too When I was a kid I was a bouncy kid like you I got older and I calmed down now I hardly ever bounce around But when I was a kid I was a bouncy kid too When I was a kid I was purple kid too When I was a kid I was a purple kid like you These days I’m bright green, I’m the greenest dude you’ve ever seen But when I was a kid I was a purple kid too When I was a kid I was a weird kid too When I was a kid I was a weird kid just like you These days I’m still acting strange I guess some things are just slow to change When I was a kid I was a weird kid too

Everybody clap your hands, everybody stomp your feet Come on, come on everybody sing along ‘Cause when you do it sounds so sweet Everybody jump up and down We’re jumping up and down we’re bouncing all around Everybody jump up and down Everybody tap your toes Tap your toes, yes I do mean those Everybody tap your toes Everybody flap your wings Flap your wings like a sparrow in the spring Everybody flap your wings Everybody pat your knees Pat your knees please, everybody please Everybody knock your knees Everybody blink your eyes Blink your eyes all you goofy gals and guys Everybody blink your eyes Everybody wave to a friend Wave to a friend ‘cause this song’s about to end Everybody wave to a friend

There’s a whole bunch of grownups at our house tonight They’re sitting in the living room, I’m hidden out of sight I sneak up behind them to hear what they say They go on about stocks and bonds and the price of gas these days But all I hear is blah, blah, blah, blah . . . I get bored with that so I sneak back down the hall My sister’s on the phone again with her brand new boyfriend Paul I’m quiet as a mouse as I listen through the door They’re smooching back and forth about who loves who more My brother is hogging the TV again He’s watching some sports show on ESPN They’re talking about some quarterback who’s gonna be a star They compare the way he throws to some old guy named Favre I get so bored it makes me want to shout So I try to talk about it to my faithful old dog Scout But all he hears is blah, blah, blah, blah . . .

Little Bird 01:46
Little bird, little bird what do you see Up in your nest up on top of that tree I’m waving to you little bird do you see me Little bird, little bird up in that tree Little bird fly, little bird sing You go tweet, tweet, tweet as you flap those wings Little bird, little bird up in the sky I love to watch you fly so high You flap your wings like a wave goodbye Little bird, little bird up in the sky Little bird, little bird you sound so sweet Singing your song up and down my street Tweetle-eetle-eetle-eetle-eet, tweet, tweet Little bird, little bird you sound so sweet

Polite Pete 03:08
I was just a young man then, no more than 23 I was first mate on the finest merchant ship upon the sea When old Blackbeard fired upon us until we nearly sank He said to me, “Come join our crew or else you’ll walk the plank” I thought of my dear mother then at home and safe on shore A pirate’s life is not the kind of life she raised me for So I said with my best manners to old Blackbeard and his crew “I’ll join your band but understand there are some things I won’t do.” Now they call me Polite Pete the Pirate And I sail the seven salty seas I rob and I loot, I pillage and I plunder But I always say thank you and please My hair is long, one eye is gone, my teeth are turning green I’m the roughest, toughest meanest looking lad you’ve ever seen Just a single sight of me can make a grown man cry I’ll steal your gold but truth be told I wouldn’t hurt a fly Thank you for your gold May I please have some more Would you kindly walk the plank for me And swim yourself to shore It’s been twenty years now that I’ve lived the pirate’s life I’ve sent all my riches home to my two kids and my wife They’re the apple of my one good eye, I see them when I can We drive around in a solid gold Toyota mini-van

Mama Llama 01:53
I'm a mama llama and my baby's name is Cass She loves to feed on fresh green grass She loves to spit and she loves to flirt She loves to roll around in the dirt I love her, I nudge her, I clean her and I cuddle I feed her, I lead her far away from trouble I do it all for love and I do it all because I'm a mama llama . . . And that's what a mama llama does If you're not in love then you haven't seen her yet She's got tall pointy ears her nose is long and wet She's got big brown eyes and long shaggy hair She could win a ribbon at any county fair I’m a mama llama and she’s my little girl She’s about the cutest little thing in this whole world I do it all for love and I do it all because I’m a mama llama and that’s what a mama llama does

Here comes my baby brother with a carrot in his hand Watch out baby bunny ‘cause he’ll catch you if he can He doesn't want to hurt you he just wants to be your friend Still it's really not something that I would recommend You better run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run Run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run I know you can do it ‘cause you’re the fastest one You better run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run Watch out baby bunny there's an eagle in the sky I think he must have spied you with his sharp eagle eye You better run for cover because I've got a hunch That hungry bald eagle wants to have you for his lunch You better run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run B-U-N-N-Y you better R-U-N you fuzzy little guy You better run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run Hey there baby bunny the time has come today When all your bunny buddies will come on out to play There’ll be bunny races and bunny tag and chase There’ll be bouncing baby bunnies all over this place You better run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run bunny, run
