Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Put your arms in the air
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Spin around in a circle
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo

All around the kitchen…

Stop right there
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Make your arms into trees
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Then you wave them in the breeze
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Walk and wobble your knees
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo

All around the kitchen…

Stop right there
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Make your arms into wings
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Then you flap those things
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo
Fly around in a circle
Cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo

All around the kitchen…

 

“Never Let Me Go” by Jenn Batey

Hold me and want me and tell me you love me
And never let me go.

Kiss me and hug me and squeeze me and tell me
You’ll never let me go.

Lead me I’ll follow
And love me tomorrow
But kiss me just for today.

I’ll hold you, I’ll want you, I’ll tell you I love you
I’ll never let you go.

Follow me I’ll lead you
And love you tomorrow
But kiss me just for today.

Hold me and want me and tell me you love me
And never let me go.

 

“It’s Time to Say Goodbye” by Joseph Pinson

It’s time to say goodbye
It’s time to say so long
It’s time to say see you later, alligator
It’s time to say goodbye

In Japan, they say Sayonara
In Germany, they say Auf wiedersehen
In France, they say Au revior
And in Mexico, they say Adios

It’s time to say goodbye
It’s time to say so long
It’s time to say see you later, alligator
It’s time to say goodbye
