Way Down Here Beneath the Ocean

                                (Jamie Alcott)

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                         There's colors like you never seen.
                              And I never get lonely
                           There's lots of fish just like me.

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                             We get our food for free.
                            And the fisherman knows it
                                So I eat carefully.

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                              I sing my fav'rite song;
                              And the octopus listens
                            And sometimes sings along
                             And the coral go "Ooh."

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                          The whale's got room to breathe.
                           He likes blowin' them bubbles
                             Underneath submarines.

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                          We spend a lot of time in school.
                          Look don't touch, it's a jelly fish.
                             They've got a lot of rules.

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                              Where boats fly above
                          I've seen a lot of them land here
                            And they never go back up.

                       The catfish blow a bluesy spiral seashell.
                       Mermaids dance with water in their eyes.
                        We're so glad to be here in the ocean
                         You couldn't get thirsty if you tried.

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                         There's colors like you've never seen
                              And I never get lonely
                           There's lots of fish just like me.

                         Way down here beneath the ocean
                              I often heard 'em say
                            That once upon a seahorse
                             He'll let you ride all day.
                             And the coral go "Ooh."

The Bus Song

                                  (Traditional)

                       The wheels on the bus go round and round
                          Round and round, round and round
                       The wheels on the bus go round and round
                              All through the town.

                     The wipers on the bus go "Swish, swish, swish,
                       Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish"
                     The wipers on the bus go "Swish, swish, swish"
                              All through the town.

                        The door on the bus goes open and shut
                           Open and shut, open and shut
                        The door on the bus goes open and shut
                              All through the town.

                      The horn on the bus goes "Beep, beep, beep
                         Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep"
                      The horn on the bus goes "Beep, beep, beep"

                      The gas on the bus goes "Glunk, glunk, glunk"

When I See an Elephant Fly

                              (Washington/Wallace)

                       I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
                         I saw a needle that winked it's eye.
                        But I think I will have seen ev'rything
                            When I see an elephant fly.

                    I saw a front porch swing, heard a diamond ring,
                           I saw a polka dot railroad tie.
                        But I'll be done seein' 'bout ev'rything
                            When I see an elephant fly.

                        I saw a clotheshorse rear up and buck,
                     They tell me that a man made a vegetable truck
                           I didn't see that, I only heard;
                       But just to be sociable, I'll take their word.

                       I heard a fireside chat, saw a baseball bat,
                        And I just laughed till I thought I'd die.
                        But I'll be done seein' 'bout ev'rything
                            When I see an elephant fly.

                        I saw the sugar bowl, saw the jelly roll,
                        I saw a picket fence and that's no lie.
                        But I'll be done seein' 'bout ev'rything
                            When I see an elephant fly.

                           I even heard a chocolate drop,
                      I went into a store and saw a bicycle shop.
                          You can't deny the things you see
                    But I know there's certain things that just can't be.

                    The other day, by chance I saw an old barn dance,
                            So I'm gullible, and that is I.
                        But I think I will have seen ev'rything
                            When I see an elephant fly.

When the Saints Go Marching In

                              (Emma Cotton)

                         Oh when the saints go marching in
                         Oh when the saints go marching in
                           Oh I want to be in that number
                           When the saints go marching in

                           When the sun begins to shine
                           When the sun begins to shine
                           Oh I want to be in that number
                           When the sun begins to shine

                          When the trumpet sounds its call
                          When the trumpet sounds its call
                           Oh I want to be in that number
                          When the trumpet sounds its call

                          When we raise our voice in song
                          When we raise our voice in song
                           Oh I want to be in that number
                          When we raise our voice in song

When You Wish Upon a Star

                        Leigh Harline and Ned Washington
                               (from "Pinocchio")

                            When you wish upon a star
                          Makes no difference who you are
                            Anything your heart desires
                                Will come to you

                           If your heart is in your dream
                             No request is too extreme
                            When you wish upon a star
                                As dreamers do

                                  Fate is kind
                             She brings to those to love
                             The sweet fulfillment of
                               Their secret longing

                             Like a bolt out of the blue
                          Fate steps in and sees you through
                            When you wish upon a star
                             Your dreams come true

                                       

                 (The following lyrics appear in a sheet music version
                        of "When You Wish Upon a Star",
                     sung in free tempo, before the first verse.) 

                               When a star is born
                            They possess a gift or two
                               On of them is this:
                    They have the power to make a dream come true

Wherever You Go, I Love You

                                     (Marcy Marxer)

                         Wherever you go, whatever you do,
                        Through all the changes you go through,
                            I'll be right there next to you;
                                  I love you.

                       When you're too small to reach the sink,
                            So all you do is sit and think
                        About how clean you would have been,
                           Know that I will love you then.

                         Wherever you go, whatever you do,
                        Through all the changes you go through,
                            I'll be right there next to you;
                                  I love you.

                         When you can button up your shirt,
                        And brush off your own dust and dirt,
                       When you can spell and write your name,
                            I will love you just the same.

                         Wherever you go, whatever you do,
                        Through all the changes you go through,
                            I'll be right there next to you;
                                  I love you.

                           When you try to cut your hair,
                         And leave the clippings everywhere
                         And throw your hands up in the air,
                          I'll hold you in this rocking chair.

                         Wherever you go, whatever you do,
                        Through all the changes you go through,
                            I'll be right there next to you;
                                  I love you.

                           When you crawl into your bed,
                           And on a pillow lay your head,
                          When you're drifting off to sleep,
                            All my love is yours to keep.

                         Wherever you go, whatever you do,
                        Through all the changes you go through,
                            I'll be right there next to you;
                                  I love you.

                              I love you, I love you.            

The White Seal's Lullaby

                                 (Rudyard Kipling)

                     Oh! hush thee, my baby, the night is behind us,
                    And black are the waters that sparkled so green.
                  The moon, o'er the combers, looks downward to find us
                       At rest in the hollows that rustle between.

                    Where billow meets billow, then soft by thy pillow;
                      Ah, weary wee flipperling, curl at thy ease!
                  The storm shall not wake thee, nor shark overtake thee,
                     Asleep in the arms of the slow-swinging seas.

                         Mama's gonna glove your little hand
                        And I'm gonna kiss your ruby red lips
                                 Ooh, ooh, ooh

Wishing Poem

                                (Traditional Poem)

                               Star light, star bright,
                            First star I've seen tonight,
                             Wish I may, wish I might,
                           Have this wish I wish tonight.

The Wonkatania

         
                   (From "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory")

                         There's no earthly way of knowing
                           Which direction we are going
                       There's no knowing where we're rowing
                          Or which way the river's flowing
                                  Is it raining?
                                 Is it snowing?
                             Is a hurricane a blowing?

                           Not a speck of light is showing
                           So the danger must be growing
                           Are the fires of hell a glowing?
                            Is the grisly reaper mowing?
                          Yes! The danger must be growing
                           For the rowers keep on rowing
                          And they're certainly not showing
                          Any signs that they are slowing!

The Work Song

  
                      Mack David, Al Hoffman and Jerry Livingston
                              (from "Cinderella")

                              Cinderella, Cinderella
                              All I hear is Cinderella
                          From the moment that I wake up
                          Till the shades of night are falling

                              There isn't any let up
                             I hear them calling, calling
                            "Go up and do the attic and
                            Go down and do the cellar,
                           You can do them both together,
                                  Cinderella"

                              Cinderella, Cinderella
                              All I hear is Cinderella
                          From the moment that I wake up
                          Till the shades of night are falling

                              There isn't any let up
                             I hear them calling, calling
                            "Go up and do the attic and
                            Go down and do the cellar,
                           You can do them both together,
                                  Cinderella"

                              How lovely it would be
                             If I could live my fantasy
                          But in the middle of my dreaming
                             They're screaming at me:

                              Cinderella, Cinderella
                              All I hear is Cinderella
                          From the moment that I wake up
                          Till the shades of night are falling

                              There isn't any let up
                             I hear them calling, calling
                            "Go up and do the attic and
                            Go down and do the cellar,
                           You can do them both together,
                                  Cinderella"

Wynken, Blynken and Nod

  
                               (Eugene Field)

                         Wynken, Blynken and Nod one night
                            Sailed off in a wooden shoe, 
                           Sailed on a river of crystal light
                                Into a sea of dew
                      Where are you going and what do you wish
                            The old man asked the three
                        We've come to fish for the herring fish
                           That swim in the beautiful sea
                           Nets of silver and gold have we
                          Said Wynken, Blynken and Nod

                         So all night long their nets they threw
                          To the stars in the twinklin' foam
                    Then down from the sky came the wooden shoe
                            Bringing the fisherman home
                         'Twas oh so pretty a sail it seemed
                               As if it could not be
                  And some folks thought 'twas a dream they'd dreamed
                            Of sailing the beautiful sea
                       But I shall name you the fisherman three
                            Wynken, Blynken and Nod

                       Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes 
                             And Nod is a weary head
                       And the wooden shoe that sailed the skies 
                             Is a wee one's trundle bed
                        So shut your eyes while Mommy sings
                           Of the wonderful sights that be
                       And you shall see all the beautiful things
                           As you rock in that misty sea
                            Just like the fisherman three
                            Wynken, Blynken and Nod
                            Just like the fisherman three
                            Wynken, Blynken and Nod
