I was in deepest Africa, yes I was. Yes I was
I was in deepest Africa.
1. Teaching elephants to dance!
Don’t look askance for elephants love to sing and dance
In their fancy hot pants!
I was in deepest Africa teaching elephants to dance!
2. Watching a toucan can-can
When in the Sudan a toucan can can-can better than
Any two toucans can
I was in deepest Africa watching a toucan can-can.
3. Teaching a gnu to gnit
Each stitch that gnu gnit
He would throw a fit like a gnu gnit wit!
I was in deepest Africa teaching a gnu to gnit.
Gnit one pearl two, gnit one pearl two
4. Teaching a baboon to croon
Each tune that baboon would croon
Made the she baboon loonier than moon goons
I was in deepest Africa teaching a baboon to croon
5. Teaching hippopotami . . . to fly
Don’t sigh, look up in the sky
Hippopotomi will be flying by
I was in deepest Africa teaching hippopotami to fly!
Good- bye!

Three Little Fishes
1. Down in the meadow in a little bitty pool
Swam three little fishes and a mamma fishy too
Swim said the mamma fishy, swim if you can.
And they swam and they swam right over the dam.
Chorus:
Boop boop diddem doddem waddem choo ! (repeat 3 times)
And they swam and they swam right over the dam.
2. Stop! Cried the mamma fishy or you’ll get lost.
The three little fishes didn’t want to be bossed.
The three little fishes went off on a spree
And they swam and they swam right out to the sea
Chorus
3. Whee said the little fishes. Gee what fun!
We’ll swim in the sea till the day is done.
They swam and they swam and it was a lark,
Till all of a sudden . . . they saw a shark!
Help cried the little fishes . . . Look at all those whales,
And quick as they could they turned on their tales.
And back to the pool in the meadow they swam,
And they swam and they swam back over the dam!
Chorus

(Chorus) Turn on the light, turn on the light, turn on the light , turn on the light
The light of the sun, solar powered light of the sun.
Isn’t it obvious every day.
It’s shining above us all and it’s here to stay.
We know the sky is the limit.
We know the power in it.
It’s time to begin it.
We’re turning on the light.
The Light of the sun, The kight of the sun, solar powered light.
(Chorus)
Don’t have to take a drill and hurt a tree
And it will never spill,.
It’s always clean and free.
We know the sun is the ticket
Hop on, let’s go, let’s get it.
(Chorus) The light of the sun ooo
Solar powered light of the sun
Solar powered light.
The Future will be so bright.
We’ve just got to change our minds and
Let the lovelight shine. oooooooo
We know the sky is the limit
With all the power in it.
It’s time to begin it.
We’re turning on the light.
The light of the sun oooo
The light of the sun
Solar powered light of the sun
The light of the sun, solar powered light
(You can do 2 parts with some only singing turn on the light, turn on the light)

(Chorus) You’ve gotta get out, look up and see the sky,
Climb a tree, see how the birds fly,
Get down, see what’s upon the ground.
Get out and meet your world!
Reading book is wonderful. There’s so much you can learn,
About kings and stars and dinasaurs and why the season’s turn,
But when your mind grows weary from the paper you have turned,
Just put those books up for a little while.
(Chorus)
Telivision and VCR’s can teach and entertain.
You laugh, you sry, you learn some things.
You get to watch the game.
But TV can be dangerous if it takes up too much time.
So turn it off before it steals your mind.
(Chorus twice)
The earth has many stories that she wants us all to hear.
They’re in the misic of a cricket and the footsteps of a deer.
They’re in a world that is just waiting and is right outside your door.
(Chorus)

There’s Gonna Be A Rainbow
There’s gonna be a rainbow shining in the sky.
Gonna be a rainbow, we can catch it if we try.
Gonna be a rainbow following the storm.
Gonna be a rainbow with sun to keep us warm.
Rain falls into our hands,
Sun shines down on the land.
With rain, sun, and love all life will grow.
And the earth holds us in her arms in a rainbow.
Wanna be a rainbow?
Shining in the sky?
Wanna be a rainbow
Floating way up high?
Wanna be a rainbow
Following the storm,
Wanna be a rainbow
With colors being born?

When the Rain Comes Down
1. When the rain comes down, it comes down on everyone (twice)
(Chorus): No matter if you’re rich or poor, no matter if you’re great or small
When the rain comes down, it comes down on us all
2. When the sun shines down, it shines down on everyone (twice)
3. When the baby smiles, he’s smiling for everyone. (twice)
4. When the children sing, they’re singing for everyone. (twice)
