3. SONG WORDS FOR WINTER 2010

KIDS SPORTS
Kids, I don’t know whats wrong with these (Stomp, stomp clap – stomp, stomp, clap)
Kids today! Put it in the hoop, put it in the goal,
Kids, Who can understand anything they say, Over the net or in the hole.
Kids, they are disobedient, disrespectful oafs! Runnin and dodging and takin the lead,
Noisy, crazy, sloppy, lazy, loafers Pumped and psyched, don’t mess with me.
And while we’re on the subject, Move on over, won’t be unknown,
Kids, you can talk and talk til your face turns blue, Cause I’m makin it takin it to the zone.
Kids, but they still do just what they want to do, Workin it, working it, working it, working it,
Why can’t they be like we were, perfect in everyway, Step aside mister and watch me own.
What’s the matter with kids, what’s the matter with kids,
What’s the matter with kids today? Put it in the hoop, put it in the goal,
Over the net or in the hole,
Runnin and dodging and takin the lead,
Pumped and psyched, don’t mess with me.
Get your body movin – ou, ou, (repeat)
Raise the Roof - Score---- (repeat 2 more times)
Better watch your back, cause this is our house!
BRAIN/MUSIC NERDS
Think and study, think and study,
Science, reading writing and geography.
Think and study, think and study,
Scales and drills and practice musicology.
Study, study, broadening your brain,
Think, think, think, think on to worldly fame
Arithmetic and spelling words there’s never any ease,
And don’t forget to make your bed and feed the dog please!
Think and study, think and study,
Science, reading writing and geography.
Think and study, think and study,
Scales and drills and practice musicology.
Learned our A, B, C, C, C’s, we’re as smart as we can be.
On to a PHD, Nobel prize that’s for me,
We will make history – think and study.
Better watch your back, cause this is our house!
ELECTRONIC MASTERS
She said she saw him at the store – OMG
He followed her from row to row – LOL
What did they do when they got back – IDK
I can’t believe you just said that – JK

Text and message on the go you know
Games and downloads are the most you know,
Loved to see your face with mine you know,
Be my friend, I’ll be your friend –
Who’s calling me now – OH

This homework is a total drag – ST
My brothers really make me mad – BRB
It’s been so good to talk to you – TTYL
My phone is trip-in dying soon – WAD

Texting, texting on the run,
Lots to say but my poor thumb
Over minutes, over time
Dad is going to blow his mind
Please don’t open that bill,
Let’s not open that bill,
Dad – Please don’t take my cell phone away.

ENDINGWhy can’t you be like we are – happy and on the move,
Let’s all be more like kids,
Let’s all be more like kids,
Let’s all be more like kids, TODAY
today.Forever young!

GOD BLESS AMERICA
God bless America, land that I love,
Stand beside her, and guide her,
Through the night with the light from above
From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans whit with foam
God bless America, my home sweet home, God bless America, my home sweet home.
HUSHABYE MOUNTAIN

A gentle breeze from hushabye mountain,
Softly blows o’er lullabye bay.
It fills the sails of boats that are waiting, waiting to
sail your worries away.
It isn’t far to Hushabye Mountain,
And your boat waits down by the key,
The winds of night so softly are sighing
Soon they will fly your troubles to sea.

So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain.
Wave goodbye to cares of the day.
And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from lullabye bye (repeat)

A gentle breeze from Hushaby Mountain,
Sail far away, from lullabye bay.

ENDING
Why can’t you be like we are – happy and on the move,
Let’s all be more like kids, today.
Forever young – at heart!

MAY THE MUSIC NEVER END
May the music never end, surround us with a circle of love.
Let our hearts keep singing, and this song keep ringing through our lives,
As we leave this place my friend. And may the music never end.
(Repeat)
Familiar hearts, fill this room with love.
There’ve been so many years of laughter and of tears,
and I cherish every moment that we shared.
Memories I’ll be thinking of are reflections of your love.
(Repeat first part)


THE POWER OF THE DREAM
Deep within each heart there lies a magic spark
That lights the fire of our imagination.
And since the dawn of man, the strength of just, “I Can”
Has brought together people of all nations.
There’s nothing ordinary in the living of each day,
There’s a special part everyone of us can play.

Feel the flame forever burn teaching lessons we must learn,
To bring us closer to the power of the dream
As the world gives us its best to stand a part from all the rest
It is the power of the dream that brings us here.
Every boy and girl, as they come into this world,
They bring the gift of hope and inspiration.

Feel the flame forever burn teaching lessons we must learn,
To bring us closer to the power of the dream
The world unites in hope and peace, pray that it will always be.
It is the power of the dream that brings us here.
