There are lots of things to do when you’re a pirate. There are lots of things to do when you’re a pirate. You can climb the mast right to the top. Buy a wooden leg from the pirate shop. I want to be a pirate. Yo! Ho! Ho! Yo! Hee! Hee! A pirate’s what I’d really like to be. Yo! Ho! Ho! Yo! Hoo! Hoo! Would you like to be a pirate too? There are lots of things to wear when you’re a pirate. There are lots of things to wear when you’re a pirate. Eyepatch. Earing. Bendy hook. A long black beard completes the look. I want to be a pirate. Yo….. Ho….. Ho…… Ah, Ha Ha! Yo….. Ho….. Ho…… Ah, Ha Ha! Yo, Ho, Ha, Ha, Ha. Yo, Ho, Ha, Ha, Ha. Yo….. Ho….. Ho…… Ah, Ha Ha! There are lots of things to hear when you’re a pirate. There are lots of things to hear when you’re a pirate. Siren songs when the north wind blows. Listen to the pirate radio. I want to be a pirate. Yo! Ho! Ho! Yo! Hee! Hee! A pirate’s what I’d really like to be. Yo! Ho! Ho! Yo! Hoo! Hoo! Would you like to be a pirate too? There are lots of things to do when you’re a pirate. There are lots of things to do when you’re a pirate. Like putting all your treasure in your pirate bank. Swimming with the fishes when you walk the plank. I want to be a pirate. I want to be a pirate. I want to be a pirate.

I was minding my own business in the jungle When I felt the ground around me start to rumble Charging elephants in a pack knocked me down and squashed me flat Then I’m sure I heard a monkey start to mumble You’ve got to … Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better When you’re flatter than a pancake, and thinner than a letter. You can kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, Kiss it better! I was walking on the bottom of the sea When a swordfish stabbed his sword into my knee He said that he was sorry and he gave me half his lolly When I heard the baby dolphins sing to me You've got to… Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better When you're floating with the fishes and you can't get any wetter You can kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, Kiss it better! Sharks and crocodiles will snap you with a smile A porcupine will spike you with its spines A baby bat may bruise you A cheeky chimp could chew you But kissing makes it better every time. I was dancing at a party on the sand When a friendly lobster came to shake my hand My fingers started hurting. The blood started spurting When I heard the tiny singing limpet band You've got to… Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better, Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better So I thanked them for their help and they told me it's a pleasure You can kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, Kiss it better! Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better Kiss Kiss Kiss, Kiss it better When you’re flatter than a pancake, and thinner than a letter. When you're floating with the fishes and you can't get any wetter If you ever stub your toe on a pirate’s buried treasure You can kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, Kiss it better!

Once I was a nice clean teddy bear When I spied a shiny egg inside a box So I climbed inside and licked and munched and gobbled it Now I’m chocolaty from my ears to my socks I’m in the washing machine. I’m here to get myself clean. And I go round and round and round and round and round. I’m getting lost in the clothes. There’s smelly socks up my nose. And I go round and round and round and round and round. Once I was a nice clean teddy bear. I said “Hungry for a snack is what I am!” But my paws are not the best for jars or spreading things. Now I’m covered head to toe in sticky jam. I’m in the washing machine…. Now I am a nice clean teddy bear, And there are lots of muddy puddles to jump in, So every now and then I like to try one, because I can’t wait to get back home to have a spin. I’m in the washing machine. I’m here to get myself clean. And I go round and round and round and round and round. I’m getting lost in the clothes. There’s smelly socks up my nose. And I go round and round and round and round and round. I’m in the washing machine. I’m here to get myself clean. And I go round and round and round and round and round. I’m getting lost like I said. I’ve got some pants on my head. And I go round and round and round and round and round. La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, etc.

When I try to speak when I brush my teeth I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. When I try to speak when I brush my teeth I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. When I try to speak when I brush my teeth, When I’m scrubbing on the tops, And the underneaths, I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. When I try to sing when I’m doing my thing I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. When I try to sing when I’m doing my thing I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. When I try to sing when I’m doing my thing When I’m stretching up high And I flap my wings I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm When I try to laugh when I’m splashing in the bath I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. When I try to laugh when I’m splashing in the bath I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. When I try to laugh when I’m splashing in the bath When I’m wearing soap gloves And a bubble scarf I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’. I go ‘Mmm, mmm, mmm’.

Down, down. Take me down. Down to Market Square. Slap bang in the middle of the town. Please take me there Morning, noon and evening time, I just don’t care. Take me down, down, down to Market Square. In Market Square there are two big lions, That stare such a stare it’s hard to mention, But, Right Lion’s feeling sad and lonely, Because Left Lion gets all the attention. In Market Square there are pubs, shops and cafes And a great big bell called Little John. When it chimes then it’s time to take a walk outside And all of your troubles will be gone. Down, down. Take me down. Down to Market Square. Slap bang in the middle of the town. Please take me there Morning, noon and evening time, I just don’t care. Take me down, down, down to Market Square. In market square there's a long black fountain Which the children and the pigeons like to splash in. Down by the Lions, the Gothic teens hug each other, All dressed up in the latest Void fashions. (In Market Square we’ve got summer in the sunshine. Lots of sand and a pool that we can splash in. A great big wheel and music all around us We’re having fun like it’s going out of fashion) At Christmas time, there's a big German market With the sweet smell of bratwurst in the air. After a beer, we'll all be here to welcome in New Year And say 'Hello' to New Old Market Square, CHORUS So take me down, down, down to Market Square. Oh, take me down......said take me down......to Market Square

My eyes are open. I’m standing on my feet. The light outside says morning, But I feel like I’m still asleep ….. Back into bed x6 Aaaahh Yah! I feel so tired. I wanna get back into bed. It’s dark outside I wanna get back into bed. I got up too soon. I wanna get back into bed. I want to get back into bed, and go to …. Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream To sleep and to dream and to rest my weary head, I want to get back into my bed. All night long I’ve been awoken, I really don’t feel too cool. It feels like I’ve been broken, And now I’ve got to go to school. I feel so tired. I wanna get back into bed. It’s dark outside I wanna get back into bed. I got up too soon. I wanna get back into bed. I want to get back into bed, and go to …. Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream, Dream To sleep and to dream and to rest my weary head, I want to get back into my bed.

Five little fingers on my hand Jumping up and down like a punk rock band One finger said ‘Hey Ho, Let’s Go!’ He fell asleep in the studio Four little fingers on my hand Jumping up and down like a punk rock band One little finger jumped in the air Into the crowd but the crowd wasn’t there La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oi! Three little fingers on my hand Jumping up and down like a punk rock band One little finger chipped her tooth Pogo-ing off of the tour bus roof Two little fingers on my hand Jumping up and down like a punk rock band One little finger just got paid Got very drunk and fell off the stage La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oi! La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oi! One little finger on my hand Nothing seemed to turn out the way he’d planned Sat right down and scratched his head Said ‘I want to be a vet instead!’ Ten years later they’re all doing fine Their song is the theme to Spiderman 9 The Five Little Fingers are the top punk band In Hong Kong, China and Japan. La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oi! La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oi! La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oi! X2 La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oi! X2

I’m not a real boy. I must be made of wood. I don’t have feelings. Do you think that I should? And if you hold my hand, It could be so good. I rescued my father, When he was lost at sea, And, my nose just grows and grows and grows, When I think about you and me. So won’t you cut my strings, And set me free. And it’s, 1, 2, 3, Pinocchio 4, 5, 6, Pinocchio 7, 8, 9, Pinocchio Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. (Repeat chorus) You look like an angel, Sent to make me do right, But I act like a bad boy, When you are out of sight. So if I lose my way, Help me make it home tonight. And it’s, 1, 2, 3, Pinocchio 4, 5, 6, Pinocchio 7, 8, 9, Pinocchio Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh. (Repeat chorus)

Oh! Froggy! 01:51
There was a little tadpole happy in his pond. Then came a little fairy with a big magic wand. She waved it round in circles and tapped it on a log. Said “Allakah – piff – paff – Woo – hah – hah!”. There was a little frog. Oh, Froggy! What is going on? You were such a happy tadpole, now everything’s gone wrong. Oh, Froggy! What’s it all about? The fairy’s put a spell on you. Said frog “I’m very hungry. What is there for my lunch? I’ve grown more in a minute than I would have in a month. So he jumped straight at the fairy. The wand fell in his lap. He turned the lass into a fly then ate her for a snack. Oh, Froggy! Why did you do that? You could have magic-ed up a spider that was juicy big and fat. Oh, Froggy! What you gonna do, Now the Fairy King is after you? Said the Fairy King to Froggy “I’m really glad you came, That naughty little fairy, she really was a pain. She kept changing ducks to donkeys, and chicks to chimpanzees. So here’s a medal for your good work and a tasty bag of fleas. Oh, Froggy! Thank you very much. You’re such a splendid fellow and most slimy to the touch. Oh, Froggy! What you gonna do, When the princesses are kissing you?”

I feel sad 03:09
I feel sad when the party is over I’m upset when my balloon won’t fly back When it’s time to climb down from the tree house I feel sad, sad, sad. I feel sad when my friends have all left me I feel down when my apple’s gone bad When the rain falls down on my birthday I feel sad, sad, sad. But everyone feels sad sometimes. We all need to cry a few tears. Without sad there would never be happy, To make sadness disappear. I feel sad when I’m lost and I’m hungry And I can’t find my mum or my dad Sometimes I feel sad for no reason I feel sad, sad, sad. But everyone feels sad sometimes. And I know feeling sad is not wrong And I’ll sit here and sing about sadness Until happy comes along I feel sad when my toys get broken When there’s something that’s lost I once had Sometimes I feel sad for no reason I feel sad, sad, sad. Sometimes I feel sad for no reason I feel sad, sad, sad.

Rest your head on my shoulder. Go to sleep in my arms. Wash your face in the moon beams. Make your bed in the stars. And close your eyes. The sun will rise in the morning. And don’t you cry. You’ll meet me tonight in your dreams.

To make a rainbow you need the sun and the rain. Then watch the colours above until they’ve faded away. To see a rainbow, keep looking up at the sky. When the sun hits the raindrops it spreads out the light. You see RED! For roses and clown’s big noses. You see ORANGE! Roll your fruit on the ground You see YELLOW! For ice cream and walking on the sand With a great big banana in your hand To make a rainbow you need the sun and the rain. Then watch the colours above until they’ve faded away. To see a rainbow, keep looking up at the sky. When the sun hits the raindrops it spreads out the light. You see GREEN! For peas and leaves on the trees You see BLUE! For the sea and the sky You see INDIGO and VIOLET! For all things purple that make this a colourful life. Red, orange, yellow green, blue, indigo, violet. Red, orange, yellow green, blue, indigo, violet. Red, orange, yellow green, blue, indigo, violet. Red, orange, yellow green, blue, indigo, violet. To make a rainbow you need the sun and the rain. Then watch the colours above until they’ve faded away. To see a rainbow, keep looking up at the sky. When the sun hits the raindrops it spreads out the light. There are lots of things to do when you’re a pirate Rest your head on my shoulder I’m not a real boy Down down take me down Oh oh oh oh x2 If we do it together it won’t take long
