The more we get together, together, together
The more we get together, the happier we’ll be!
‘Cause your friends are my friends and my friends are your friends.
The more we get together, the happier we’ll be!

You and me go swimmin’ in the sea
And the waves roll by
You and me go swimmin’ in the sea
And the waves roll by
And we see… one dolphin*, two dolphin,
Three dolphins, four…
And up jumped a whale with a flip, flop tale…
And we swam and swam to shore.
*Repeat with shark, tuna, shrimp, gold fish
or any other fish children can think of.
For the last fish, substitute the last line with…
And they carried us back to shore.

5 brown teddies sitting on the wall
5 brown teddies sitting on the wall
And if 1 brown teddy should accidentally fall… (tip over to the floor from sitting position)
There’s be 4 brown teddies sitting on the wall
(Repeat. End with “no brown teddies sitting on the wall”)

Bet you didn’t know that
I like the way you clap (jump, dance, sit, etc.)
I like the way you clap,
I like the way you clap.
Bet you didn’t know,
Bet you didn’t know.
I even like your great big toe!
I like you, I like you,
I like you jus the way you are.
I like you, I like you,
I like you jus the way you are!

Before the age of Jell-O
Lived a prehistoric fellow
Who met a girl and courted her beneath a banyan tree
They had lots of children
And their children all had children
And they kept on having children until one of them had me!
We’re a family and we’re a tree
Our roots go deep down in history
From my great-great grandfather reaching out to me
We’re a green and growing family tree.
Now the folks in Madagascar
Are just like the ones in Alaska
But they have different food and different clothes and different color skin.
You may have a different name
But underneath we’re all the same
You’re probably my cousin and the whole world is my kin.
We’re a family…

When I was one, I sucked my thumb (or any other rhyme)
The day I went to sea
I jumped aboard a pirate ship and
The captain said to me…
We going this way, that way, forward and back
Over the Irish Sea
A bottle of juice, a bite of goose
And that’s the life for me…
Yo ho!
When I was two, I tied my shoe…
When I was three, I slapped my knee…
When I was four, I touched the floor…

I love the Earth
I love the sky
I love these days we share together
These days will pass, and so will I
But the Earth and the Sun will last
Forever.
My Brother is a bird
My Sister is a butterfly
My Mother is the Earth
My Father is the Sun
What a happy crew!
Such a lot to do
Sitting back and counting the stars
One by one.
I love this school!
I love these friends
I love these days we share together
The year went fast, and it must end
But the things that we learn will last
forever.
The things we have learned will last
forever!
