A Hard Day's Night

It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog.
It's been a hard day's night,
I should be sleeping like a log.
But when I get home to you,
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.
You know I work all day
To get you money to buy you things.
And it's worth it just to here you say,
You're gonna give me everything.
So why on earth should I moan,
'Cos when I get you alone
You know I feel okay.
When I'm home everything seems to be right.
When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah.
It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog.
It's been a hard day's night,
I should be sleeping like a log.
But when I get home to you,
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.
So why on earth should I moan,
'Cos when I get you alone
You know I feel okay.
When I'm home everything seems to be right.
When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah.
It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog.
It's been a hard day's night,
I should be sleeping like a log.
But when I get home to you,
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright.
You know I feel alright,
You know I feel alright.

Reach for the Stars! 


Raise your hands to the sky
Prepare yourself and get ready to fly
Hold your head up and bend at the knees
Take off and jump as high as you please

Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
So long Venus, seeya Mars
The Milky Way will soon be ours
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
Reach for the stars
Everybody drop and have a seat
And listen to this groovy beat
Goodbye gravity your work is done
Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
So long Venus, seeya Mars
The milky Way will soon be ours
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
Now wave your hands above your face
Like you’re floating out in space
Move ‘em left and swing ‘em right
Orbit like a satellite…real slow
Nowhere to go
The earth is far below
Get ready here we go! Everybody…

Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
So long Venus, seeya Mars
The milky Way will soon be ours
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!
Reach for the stars!
Up, up, up, up!


Things That Go Bump in the Night


“Turn out the light,” my mother said,
“Brush your teeth and go to bed.”
She doesn’t know about my plight
‘Bout things that go bump in the night

Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump in the night

Maybe it’s a vampire hiding out there
With ruby red lips and slick black hair
Waiting to give me a terrible bite
Like things that go bump in the night

Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump in the night

Is that a werewolf at my door?
Same as 30 days before
Back again with his full moon fright
With things that go bump in the night

Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump in the night

Bump, bump, bump, b-bump, b-bump
Bump, bump, bump, b-bump, b-bump
Bump, bump, bump, b-bump, b-bump
Things that go bump in the night

A mummy wants to turn my room
Into a dusty pharaoh's tomb
I don’t know why he thought I might
Want to go bump in the night (no way!)

Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump (bump, bump)
Things that go bump in the night

Bump, bump, bump, b-bump, b-bump
Bump, bump, bump, b-bump, b-bump
Bump, bump, bump, b-bump, b-bump…

Living in Dreamland 

Floating around in a vacuum place
No gravity to hold me just endless space
I was riding a rocket off to the stars
I got to visit the moon on my way to Mars
Living in dreamland imagining
What I was in my dream
What I was in my dream

I had a helmet on, it was time to rock
Surrounded by a team of super jocks
Running really quickly on the green, green grass
A crowd was cheering when I caught the pass
Living in dreamland imagining
What I was in my dream
What I was in my dream

Living in dreamland in my bed
Watching the movies inside my head
I’ m the star in every scene I write
Living in dreamland every night

An alarm was ringing I had to be quick
Got in the truck I was fully equipped
Climbing the ladder swinging my axe
Saving lives was my only task
Living in dreamland imagining
What I was in my dream
What I was in my dream

Rock And Roll All Nite

You show us everything youve got
You keep on dancin and the room gets hot
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You say you wanna go for a spin
The party's just begun, we'll let you in

You keep on shoutin, you keep on shoutin
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day

You keep on saying you'll be mine for a while
Youre lookin fancy and I like your style
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You show us everything youve got
Baby, baby that's quite a lot
And you drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin, you keep on shoutin

I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day



Before the Morning Light

When I look into the sea of distant stars and galaxies’


Constellations fill my gaze Cassiopeia light lights the stage at night
Before the morning light
When I lift my head up high to see an airplane in the sky
Moving lights are all I see the passengers move invisibly at night
Before the morning light
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
The crickets make that chirping sound
Mothers put their kids to bed
Time for dreams to fill their heads
When I look out into space with my night time dreamy face
Will I see a UFO where is it from where will it go tonight
Before the morning light
When I look into the dark sky on the 4th of each July
I see rockets as they fly racing to explode up high at night
Before the morning light
When the moon comes up and the sun goes down
The crickets make that chirping sound
Mothers put their kids to bed
Time for dreams to fill their heads

Read a Book and Dream

When I read a book before I go to bed
Echoes of the story spin inside my head
And it seems like these are not dreams
When I read about space I’m an astronaut
Or a dragon and a princess and a battle fought
It still seems like these are not dreams 
Read a book and dream, oh yeah
It’s so easy to do
Read a book and dream, oh yeah
And you might just learn a thing or two
In between chapters I close my eyes
And imagine myself the hero guy
And it seems like these are not dreams
I travel the world and cure a disease
Visit the moon and the redwood trees
And it seems like these are not dreams
Read a book and dream, oh yeah
It’s so easy to do
Read a book and dream, oh yeah
And you might just learn a thing or two
Imagination is the only thing
You need to be crowned the Pumpkin King
And it seems like these are not dreams
Living underwater in Atlantis style
Singing this song and making children smile
And it seems like these are not dreams


Martin Luther King, He Had a Dream


He was born on 15th day of January ‘29
He was a man a peace, he saw the warning signs
He stood up for equality, peace and harmony and civil rights
He did his best to erase the line that divided black and white
Martin Luther King
He had a dream; an amazing thing
Martin Luther King
He had a dream; an amazing thing
He was truly a man of faith, who couldn’t bear to be silent
He was inspired by Mahatma Gandhi and would never be violent
He was the leader of a movement that would forever change us all
He inspired generations in the 60’s with his wake up call
Martin Luther King
He had a dream; an amazing thing
Martin Luther King
He had a dream; an amazing thing
Even when evil tried to take it away
His dream was so big, it’s still alive today
You can’t be radical or too extreme
When you know you’re right and you dare to dream!
He once said all men are brothers, so do our best to live in peace
He believed love had the power to end war, injustice and grief
He was a man who could not be silenced, his voice still echoes strong
He left us many words of wisdom, everybody sing along
Martin Luther King
He had a dream; an amazing thing
Martin Luther KingHe had a dream; an amazing thing

The Sleeping Song


Daddy is sleeping don't wake him up
Daddy is sleeping everybody quiet
Daddy is sleeping his eyes are shut
Daddy is sleeping don't wake him up

Mommy is sleeping don't make a sound
Mommy is sleeping tiptoe around
Mommy is sleeping don't play too loud
Mommy is sleeping don't make a sound

Everybody needs sleep
Everybody needs sleep
Everybody needs sleep
To be your best you need your rest!

The kitty is sleeping she's rolled into a ball
The kitty is sleeping at the end of the hall 
The kitty is sleeping her name don't call
The kitty is sleeping she's rolled into a ball

Our neighbors are sleeping on that live on our block
Our neighbors are sleeping every door is locked
Our neighbors are sleeping they set their clocks
Our neighbors are sleeping on that live on our block

All the children are sleeping and you should be too
All the children are sleeping and dreaming it's true
All the children are sleeping they're not at the zoo
All the children are sleeping and you should be too

The Cricket Love Song


The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song

Late at night you can hear the sound
In the woods when the sun goes down
They start to chip
Wings go to work
From dusk until dawn
Hear the cricket love song

The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song

Tiny creatures with big back feet
Try to attract a mate that’s sweet
The woods are awake
With music they make
Every frog, bird and fawn
Knows the cricket love song

The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song

Female crickets listen with two ears
Attached to their elbows, do you think that’s weird?
Instead of a kiss, antennae clinched
Another courtship is born
With a cricket love song

Late at night you can hear the sound
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
In the woods when the sun goes down
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song
The cricket, the cricket, the cricket love song

Fireflies

You would not believe your eyesIf ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep'Cause they'd fill the open airand leave teardrops everywhereyou'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
that planet Earth turns slowly
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
  
Cause id get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs
as they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
a sockhop beneath my bed
a disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
that planet Earth turns slowly
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When i fall asleep
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/o/owl-city/191244.html ]
leave my door open just a crack
(please take me away from here)
'Cause i feel like such an insomniac
(please take me away from here)
why do i tire of counting sheep
(please take me away from here)
when I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause i hate goodbyes
i got misty eyes as they said farewell
but ill know where several are
if my dreams get real bizarre
'cause i saved a few and i keep them in a jar


I'd like to make myself believe
that planet Earth turns slowly
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When i fall asleep
I'd like to make myself believe
that planet Earth turns slowly
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When i fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
that planet Earth turns slowly
Its hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

Continental Jump
Jump, jump, jump!
The continental jump, jump, jump
The continental jump, jump, jump
Jump around and don’t be slow
Jump, jump, jump!
The continental jump, jump, jump
The continental jump, jump, jump
Here we go…
To Africa the lions and giraffes
Let’s ride the Nile river on a raft
Jump to Australia like a kangaroo
Home to Sydney, koala and emu
Check out Europe’s history and museums
Scotland, France and England got to see ‘em
Asia is the largest of them all
The most people and China’s Great Wall
Let’s dance to South America and see Peru
Argentina, Brazil and Columbia too!
Up to North America we can play
With friends in Canada and the USA
So that Antarctica will not be forgotten
Before we finish we’ll go down to the bottom
Home to penguins, fish and arctic seals
Where day and night last a half a year


It’s a Small World After All
It’s a small, small world
It’s a small, small world
It’s not about girth or the mass of the earth
It’s a small world after all
Around the world we laugh
Around the world we laugh
And learned to smile no matter how far the miles
It’s a small world after all
Everywhere you see us dance
Everywhere you see us dance
Without a TV show to teach which heal or toe
It’s a small world after all
Together we all sing
Together we all sing
In every language comprised our voices harmonize
It’s a small world after all
It’s a small, small world
It’s a small, small world
Connected from birth we’re all part of this earth
It’s a small world after all




One World, Many Stories
One world, one world
One world, one world
Many stories you will find
One boy, one boy
One Girl, one girl
Dreaming under starry skies
One child is flying to the moon
Another hears an owl, a loon
In a dreamland fantasy
Inspired by the books they read
A fable from the land of Greece
A poem from the land of peace
A novel written long ago
A tale of truth we all should know

Some day, some day
Far away, far away
Your story lets a dream set sail
One day, one day
You may, you may
Write your own fantastic tale

Say Hello Around the World
Round and round, don’t you know?
Round and round, you can say hello
Round and round, echo what I say
To greet your neighbors the right way
In French you say bonjour (bohn-zhoor)
Bonjour (bohn-zhoor), bonjour (bohn-zhoor)
In Hebrew you say shalom, (sha-lome)
Salom, (sha-lome), shalom, (sha-lome)
In Chinese you say ni hao, (nee how)
Ni hao, (nee how), ni hao, (nee how)
And in Russian you say privet, (preev-YET)
Privet, (preev-YET), privet, (preev-YET)
In Greek you say yia sou (yah-soo)
Yia sou (yah-soo), yia sou (yah-soo)
In Italian you say ciào (chow)
Ciào (chow), ciào (chow)

Where in the World Am I?
Where in the world am I?
Where in the world am I?
I’ll tell you what I see
So you can help me
Where in the world am I?
I can see palm trees and coconuts
Beautiful beaches and surfing buffs
A series of islands that create
The land of volcanoes, our 50th state
Six months of day and six months of night
The place I’m in is snowy white
I got a shiver and now it’s 40 below
I see a polar bear and an Eskimo
In the north of Africa’s ancient land
You’ll find the Nile river and desert sand
And pyramids standing tall in one place  
With the Sphinx, a grand lion with a human face

Rock and Roll Rail Road


No Monkeys on the Train 
There’s a special train only animals ride
The conductor has a rule, “no monkeys inside”
No monkeys, on my train
But at the first stop to let the zebras on
Ten monkeys hopped in right off the lawn
Ten monkeys, on the train
At the second stop for the rhinos wait
Ten more monkeys jumped the gate
Twenty monkeys, on the train
The giraffe got one board
at stop number three ten more monkeys swung off a tree
Thirty monkeys, on the train
Rolling up to where the penguins stay
Ten monkeys slid on and hid away
Forty monkeys, on the train
Let us in the Lions’ roared
Ten more monkeys jumped on board
Fifty monkeys, on the train
Fifty monkeys jumped right out
When the conductor started to shout
No monkeys, on my train
No monkeys, on my train
Five, ten, fifteen runaway monkeys
Twenty, twenty-five, thirty runaway monkeys
Forty, forty- five, fifty runaway monkeys
No more monkeys, on the train

Thomas
I have a friend who wears a happy face
He likes to rock & roll all over the place
Big and blue, shiny and bright
He’s dependable and does what’s right
What's his name?
What's his name?
What's his name?
Watch him roll on down the line
Sir Toppum Hat is the controller for
All his friends that live in Sodor
Henry, Gordon, Percy and James
If you love the stories you know the name
What's his name?
What's his name?
What's his name?
Watch him roll on down the line


Click, clack, click, clack
Click, clack, click, clack
Click, clack, click, clack
Click, clack, click, clack
What's his name?
What's his name?
What's his name?
Watch him roll on down the line


Click, clack, click, clack
Click, clack, click, clack
Click, clack, click, clack
Click, clack, click, clack

The Ghost Train
Don’t stay out late tonight
Are you might get an awful fright
Stay away from the terror tracks
Or you might not live to make it back
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
Rolling all night long and disappearing at the break of dawn
After midnight you can hear the sound
As lost lonely hobos ride through town
Feel the rumble, click and clack
Of the flying Dutchman of the railroad tracks
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
Rolling all night long and disappearing at the break of dawn
It all began one stormy night
When the bridge went out before daylight
The engineer had no time to act
Is this story a legend or is it fact
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
Rolling all night long and disappearing at the break of dawn
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
The Ghost Train – Whoo!
Rolling all night long and disappearing at the break of dawn

Sitting at the Station
Here I am sitting at the station
Here I am sitting at the station
Here I am sitting at the station while I’m waiting for the train
I’m getting bored but I hate to complain
I could read a book sitting at the station
I could read a book sitting at the station
I could read a book sitting at the station while I’m waiting for the train
I’m getting bored but I hate to complain
I could count the people sitting at the station
I could count the people sitting at the station
I could count the people sitting at the station while I’m waiting for the train
I’m getting bored but I hate to complain
I could play a game sitting at the station
I could play a game sitting at the station
I could play a game sitting at the station while I’m waiting for the train
I’m getting bored but I hate to complain
I could listen to my music sitting at the station
I could listen to my music sitting at the station
I could listen to my music sitting at the station while I’m waiting for the train
I’m getting bored but I hate to complain
I could take a nap sitting at the station
I could take a nap sitting at the station
I could take a nap sitting at the station while I’m waiting for the train
I’m getting bored but I hate to complain

Who Graffitied Me?
It was a very happy day for engine #9
It was his first day out on the line
Big and red, shiny and bright
Until something late that night
He was in the roundhouse fast asleep
After a hard day running, never heard a peep
But when the daylight came he woke to find
graffiti artist tarnished his shine
Who graffitied me?
Who graffitied me?
I don’t understand
What did I do to deserve this spray paint tattoo?
Who graffitied me?
He lost his sparkle, he was sacred
So he asked the old timer out in the yard
Who could be so mean and commit this crime
And the old engine said, “Son, it happens all time”
They might repaint you since you’re brand new
But it’s too late for me I’m red,  black and blue
The freight cars have it worse take a look outside
Hear the sorrow of the ones that cry
Who graffitied me?
Who graffitied me?
I don’t understand
What did I do to deserve this spray paint tattoo?
Who graffitied me?
By now you guessed this tale is fiction
But if that train had a brain he would be wishing
For a chance to show vandals, right away
What it feels like to hear them say…
Who graffitied me?
Who graffitied me?
I don’t understand
What did I do to deserve this spray paint tattoo?
Who graffitied me?

Counting Freight Cars
At the railroad crossing, sitting in the van
Counting the freight cars just because I can
1-2-3, watch them go
4-5-6, very slow
7-8-9, too much time
10 cars in a line
At the railroad crossing, sitting in the van
Counting the freight cars just because I can
10-20-30, watch them go
40-50-60, so very slow
70-80-90, way too much time
100 cars in a big long line
At the railroad crossing, sitting in the van
Counting the freight cars just because I can
100-200-300, watch them go
400-500-600, so super slow
700-800-900, it’s no use!!!
Wait a minute here comes the caboose!
No more railroad crossing, sitting in the van
Counting the freight cars just because I can
