There's a bobby round the corner with a number on his coat
And if he sees you fighting he will grab you by the throat. He'll march you off to Dale Street and swear your lives away; Oh ! I wouldn't be a bobby, not for fifty pounds a day. |

I had a little nut tree; nothing would it bear
Save a silver nutmeg and a golden pear. The King of Spain's daughter came to visit me And all on account of my little nut tree. I walked on the water, I tramped across the sea And all the birdies in the air; they couldn't catch me. |

Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you... But when the leaves hang trembling, The wind is passing through. Who has seen the wind? Neither you nor I... But when the trees bow down their heads, The wind is passing by. |

Three little kittens,
They lost their mittens, And they began to cry, Oh, mother, dear, We sadly fear, Our mittens we have lost. What! Lost your mittens, You naughty kittens, Then you shall have no pie. Meow, meow, Then you shall have no pie. The three little kittens, They found their mittens, And they began to cry, Oh, mother, dear, See here, see here, Our mittens we have found. What, found your mittens, Then you're good kittens, And you shall have some pie. Purr-rr, purr-rr, Then you shall have some pie. Three little kittens, Put on their mittens, And soon ate up the pie. Oh, mother, dear, We sadly fear, Our mittens we have soiled. What! Soiled your mittens, You naughty kittens, And they began to sigh. Meow, meow, And they began to sigh. The three little kittens, They washed their mittens, And hung them out to dry. Oh, mother, dear, Do you not hear, Our mittens we have washed? What! Washed your mittens? Then you're good kittens! But I smell a rat close by. Meow, meow, We smell a rat close by. |

Cluck, cluck, red hen, have you any eggs?
Yes sir, yes sir, as many as your legs. One for your breakfast and one for your lunch; Come back tomorrow and I'll have another bunch. Moo, moo brown cow, have you milk for me? Yes sir, yes sir, as tasty as can be. Churn it into butter, make it into cheese, Freeze it into ice cream or drink it if you please. |

Next time you're found, with your chin on the ground
There's a lot to be learned, so look around! Just what makes that little old ant Think he'll move that rubber tree plant? Anyone knows an ant can't Move a rubber tree plant! But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes; He's got high apple pie in the sky hopes. So any time you're getting low, instead of letting go, Just remember that ant! Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant! Oops! There goes another rubber tree..... Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant! When troubles call, and your back's to the wall, There a lot to be learned; that wall could fall! Once there was a silly old ram, Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam. No one could make that ram scram! He kept butting that dam! 'Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes: He had high apple pie in the sky hopes. So any time you're feeling bad, instead of feeling sad, Just remember that ram! Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt dam! Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt.... Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt dam! |
