Butterfly, flutterby flipping in the breeze,
Once you were a caterpillar, now you fly with ease.
Butterfly, flutterby, that’s all I want to be,
Spreading out my colorful wings,
So all the world can see.

Don’t put me in a bottle,
Don’t catch me in a net,
Don’t pin me down, I need to fly,
Just watch, with no regret.

Butterfly, flutterby, that’s all I want to be,
Spreading out my colorful wings,
Come flutterby with me.

Together we will see the world,
Enjoying every day.
I’ll follow you, you’ll follow me,
Our dreams will guide the way.

Butterfly, flutterby, that’s all I want to be,
Spreading out my colorful wings,
So all the world can see.
Spreading out my colorful wings,
Come flutterby with me.

Looking out of my window from my house in the sky,
Looking out of my window, see an airplane flying high,
I am almost in the clouds and I’m way above the trees.
Though it’s not a house with grass around,
My apartment’s home to me.

Oh, I love to push the buttons in my elevator-spaceship,
We’re going ‘bout as far as Mars, Mars, Mars,
Everybody hold on, everybody hold on,
Going higher, and higher, and higher,
My stomach is on the floor.
We jolt to a stop and now I’m home,
It’s the twenty-second floor.

Looking out of my window from my house in the sky,
I’m on top of the world; I can see for miles and miles.
What a great place to live, looking down on the trees.
Though it’s not a house with grass around,
My apartment’s home to me.

I love to climb the stairwell like a mountain climber,
I’ll lead a group to the very top.
Everybody hold on, everybody hold on,
Going higher, and higher and higher,
My legs won’t take any more.
We come to a stop and now I’m home,
It’s the twenty-second floor.

Looking out of my window from my house in the sky,
Looking out of my window, see an airplane flying high,
I am almost in the clouds and I’m way above the trees,
Though it’s not a house with grass around,
My apartment’s home to me.

Two sailors in the tub, we sail the seas,
Two mighty sailors, my brother and me,
In our shiny milk-white ship, we sail the ocean blue,
While waves descend upon the floor,
And we throw soap bombs against the door.

And my mother screams – “Aaah,”
And she calls for my dad, “Harrrry,”
And my daddy screams (“Uuh”) and says he is mad, “I’m mad.”
But didn’t you ever have a bath when you were little,
And you liked to laugh when you played in the tub with a yo ho ho,
Like me?

The ship overturns, we’re lost at sea,
We hang on the side, my brother and me,
In our shiny milk-white ship, we sail the ocean blue,
We call for help, but what do we get?
Mommy pulls the plug and she get’s all wet.

And then she screams, “Aaah,”
And she calls for my dad, “Harrrry.”
And my daddy screams, (“Uuh”) and he says he is mad, “I’m mad.”
But didn’t you ever have a bath when you were little,
And you liked to laugh when you played in the tub with a yo ho ho,
Like me?

We swab the deck, my brother and me,
Our sailing’s done, it’s bedtime you see,
In our shiny milk-white ship, we sail the ocean blue,
We’ll dream heroic tales come true,
Like my mom and dad used to do.

And my mother smiles, and she calls for my dad, “Harry!”
And my daddy smiles, and says he’s not mad, “I’m not mad.”
‘Cause they remember having a bath when they were little,
And they liked to laugh when they played in the tub with a yo ho ho,
And a rub a dub dub,
Like me, like me, like me.

There are times when inside I’m feeling down and so sad,
Times when I’m feeling so blue,
And though it helps me to feel it and work it all through,
You know there’s something else I’ve learned to do.

It’s good to reach out and touch a friend,
So good to reach out and touch a friend,
It’s good to reach out and touch a friend,
It helps to share what I feel with a friend.

And there are times when inside I’m feeling warm, oh so good,
I want to clap and sing out and shout,
So glad to be alive, feel the sun shining through,
Can’t keep it in, got to spread it about.

It’s good to reach out and touch a friend,
So good to reach out and touch a friend,
It’s good to reach out and touch a friend,
I love to share what I feel with a friend.

Reach out and touch a friend,
So good to reach out and touch a friend,
It’s good to reach out and touch a friend,
I love to share what I feel with a friend,
I love to share what I feel with a friend.

Well, my nose is too big, but I’m still okay,
And I have crooked teeth, but I’m still okay,
And my feet are so huge, but I’m still okay,
I’m the best friend that I’ll ever have, says my dad,
The best friend that I’ll ever have.

Well, I can’t roller skate, but I’m still okay,
And I sing way offkey, but I’m still okay,
And I can’t win a race, but I’m still okay,
I’m the best friend that I’ll ever have, says my dad,
The best friend that I’ll ever have.

I just think of the things I like to do,
And the people who love me and who I love, too.
Life can’t be so bad though I cry and holler,
Besides, Grampa says,
(What did he say?)
I’m worth a million dollars.

When Andrea was only five, she said she wished to be
An astronaut when she grew up, a strange thing you’ll agree.
When people said, “But you’re a girl,” she answered, “Yes that’s true,
But I’ll become an astronaut,
That’s what I want to do.
Oh, I’ll become an astronaut,
That’s what I want to do.”

Andrea the Astronaut,
Andrea the Astronaut,
Andrea the Astronaut,
She’s blasting to the stars!

When Andrea was just fifteen, she said she wished to be
An astronaut when she grew up; it was more than just a dream.
Her father thought it was a joke,
Her mother disapproved,
But in time they agreed with Andrea,
‘Cause that’s what she wanted to do.
In time they agreed with Andrea,
‘Cause that’s what she wanted to do.

Andrea the Astronaut,
Andrea the Astronaut,
Andrea the Astronaut,
She’s blasting to the stars!

Now Andrea is all grown up; you won’t believe your eyes,
To see her in her white spacesuit, it’s really no surprise,
‘Cause since she was a little girl,
She always said, “It’s true,
I’ll become an astronaut,
That’s what I want to do.
Oh, I’ll become an astronaut,
That’s what I want to do.”

Andrea the Astronaut,
Andrea the Astronaut,
Andrea the Astronaut,
She’s blasting to the stars!

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, blast off!

“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
Everyone asks me the same old question.
“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
How am I supposed to know, know, know?
Give me some time to grow.

I can be a doctor, a lawyer,
Or an archeologist,
A nurse or a jeweler,
A baker or a florist,
A salesman, an artist,
Or here’s something different,
A man even told me he was unemployed!
I think that means he’s not working.

“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
Everyone asks me the same old question.
“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
How am I supposed to know, know, know?
Give me some time to grow.

I can be a farmer, a teacher,
Or a photojournalist,
A cook or a housewife,
A barber or a dentist,
A postman, a plumber,
Or here’s something different,
A man even said he was a retired millionaire!
I think that means he’s not working.

“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
Everyone asks me the same old question.
“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
Got to find out all about me, me, me,
Then I’ll know what I want to be.
Got to try things before I’ll know,
Just give me some time to grow.

Listen to me when I talk to you,
Please look me in the eye.
Whatever I say is important, too,
Though I’m just a little guy.
Listen to me when I talk to you,
And hear what I have to say,
I need you to listen and look at me,
Won’t wait for another day.

I fell off my bike and scraped my knee,
And Johnny laughed and teased.
I’m feeling really miserable,
Oh, won’t you listen, please!

Listen to me when I talk to you,
Please look me in the eye.
Whatever I say is important, too,
Though I’m just a little guy.
Listen to me when I talk to you,
And hear what I have to say,
I need you to listen and look at me,
Won’t wait for another day.

I think I’m in love,
But I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel,
I’ve got this funny feeling inside.
Oh, won’t you listen, please!

Listen to me when I talk to you,
Please look me in the eye.
Whatever I say is important, too,
Though I’m just a little guy.
Listen to me when I talk to you,
And hear what I have to say.
I need you to listen and look at me,
Won’t wait for another day.

My friend and I, we had a fight,
and now we hardly speak.
It hurts me when we scream and shout,
Oh, won’t you listen, please!

Listen to me when I talk to you,
Please look me in the eye.
Whatever I say is important, too,
Though I’m just a little guy.
Listen to me when I talk to you,
And hear what I have to say.

Won’t wait for another day.

When I stand on my head the room looks so funny,
The ceiling becomes the floor,
The furniture hangs from the ceiling now,
You have to step up to get into the door.

When I stand on my head the room looks so funny,
I love what I can see,
The world, it looks so clean and bright,
Just the way I’d like it to be.

So I’ll go through life standing on my head,
I’ll buy some shoes for my hands instead.
If only things could look new
When I’m standing up straight,
Talking to you.

When I stand on my head the room looks so funny,
The ceiling becomes the floor.
The furniture hangs from the ceiling now,
You have to step up to get into the door.

So I’ll go through life standing on my head,
I’ll buy some shoes for my hands instead,
I wonder if people will stare.
When I’m upside down,
Will my feet grow hair?

When I stand on my head the room looks so funny,
The ceiling becomes the floor.
The furniture hangs from the ceiling now,
You have to step up to get into the door.

This is a song about colors,
There are many, many, many different colors.
This is a song about colors,
There are many, many, many, many different colors,
Many, many, many, many, many different colors.

So, stand up red, stand up red,
And shake your head, shake your head,
And clap your hands, clap your hands,
Like frying pans, frying pans,
And sit down, sit down red,
Sit down, sit down red.

So, stand up blue, stand up blue,
And stamp your shoes, stamp your shoes,
And lift your knee, lift your knee,
Like a bumblebee, bumblebee,
And sit down, sit down blue,
Sit down, sit down blue.

So stand-up white, stand up white,
And point to a light, point to a light,
And roll those hands, roll those hands,
Like old tin cans, old tin cans,
And sit down, sit down white.

So stand up green, stand up green,
And look real mean, look real mean,
And reach up high, reach up high,
For a pizza pie, pizza pie,
Sit down, sit down green.

Now stand up brown, stand up brown,
And turn around, turn around,
And roll those hands, roll those hands,
Like old tin cans, old tin cans and sit down, sit down brown,
Sit down, sit down brown.

Cause this is a song about colors,
There are many, many, many, many, many, different colors.
