Lyrics

I've had parents say, "My child loves your song and wants us to sing it,but we don't know all the words." Herein lies the solution! Lyrics to all of my original songs!

Against the Flow

Yes, my hair is blue

Yes, my smile is crooked

No, I'm not a Size Two

No, I don't look like you

Nor did I intend to

Why look like all the rest?

How can they tell you're special?

How will they know?

I guess there's no contest

I'd rather be a rebel

Against the flow 

Against the flow

Yes, my laugh is loud

No, I don't go unnoticed in a crowd

No, I don't fit in

No, I don't think being a 

Square peg should be a sin

Why look like all the rest?

How can they tell you're special?

How will they know?

I guess there's no contest

I'd rather be a rebel

Against the flow 

Against the flow

Angel Kisses

When you were a baby, an angel kissed your nose

Little freckles mark the spots the kissing angel chose

Now as you get bigger, where you go, that angel goes

'Cause when you were a baby, that angel kissed your nose

When you were just tiny, an angel kissed your cheek

To mark you as a special one, to say that you're unique

They'd shout about how much you're loved if your freckles

could speak

'Cause when you were just tiny, that angel kissed your cheek

When you were so little, an angel kissed your face

Kisses sweet and gentle, filled with love and grace

The proof is in your freckles, which nothing can erase

'Cause when you were so little, that angel kissed your face

'Cause when you were just tiny, an angel kissed your cheek

'Cause when you were a baby, that angel kissed your nose

Betta Fish

Oh, betta fish

I see you swimmin' in your dish

Blowin' bubbles as you go

Wave your fin to say hello

Oh, betta fish

I like the way you splash and splish

Through the water you will sail

By the power of your tail

You always make me smile

Swimmin' in circles betta fish style

You and I are the best of friends

'Cause in your fish bowl the fun never ends

Oh, betta fish

Livin' life the way you wish

Swimmin' low and swimmin' high

I like the way you wink your eye

Oh, betta fish

I think your dance moves are delish

You can always draw me in

With a flourish of your fin

You have such style and grace

Swimmin' around like you own the place

You put on quite a show

Makin' a splash everywhere you go

Oh, betta fish

Your martial arts are devilish

As you swim around your bowl

A sassy soldier on patrol

Oh, betta fish

I love to watch your tail go swish

You're so beautiful and smart

Like a swimming work of art

 

You make me glad each day

Flippin' your fins that classy betta fish way

I gaze at your bowl every chance I get

You'd better believe you're my favorite pet

Oh betta fish

Livin' life the way you wish

Swimmin' low and swimmin' high

I like the way you wink your eye

Through the water you will sail

By the power of your tail!

Bohemian Boys

 

I hear the sound of thunder

It’s rolling down the hall

It’s time to get excited

The Boys have come to call

Enthusiasm’s flowing

We say, “Let’s do this thing!

It’s time to do our business

Put costumes on and sing!”

      Bohemian Boys are filled with love and laughter     

      Bohemian Boys have the energy I’m after

      Bohemian Boys are talented and smart

      My heart belongs to them

      They’re the Boys of Boheme

 

They sing in many languages

Their hard work always shows

Their voices blend so beautifully

And everybody knows

They have it all together

Their homework’s always done

They’re really good at math and stuff

But they know how to have fun

 

      Bohemian Boys are filled with love and laughter

      Bohemian Boys have the energy I’m after

      Bohemian Boys know every Fortnite dance

      My heart belongs to them

      They’re the Boys of Boheme

 

The Boys are so creative

And they’re perilously smart

Their clever observations

Raise hashtags to an art

And if the Boys are fond of you

You’ll never have to guess

They’re generous with their friendship

And their supportiveness

 

      Bohemian Boys are filled with love and laughter

      Bohemian Boys have the energy I’m after

      Bohemian Boys are some of my best friends

      My heart belongs to them

      They’re the Boys of Boheme

The Firefighter Way

They get up really early and they stay up really late

They hang out at the firehouse, their chili's really great

They slide down a pole when it's time to operate

And if you are in trouble, they will be there!

That's the Firefighter Way!

With a helmet and a jacket and some boots and a hose

The firefighter keeps it cool, and everybody knows

When they are in a hurry, man, that siren really blows

And if there's an emergency, they'll be there!

That's the Firefighter Way!

When your cat is stuck up in a tree, they know what to do

You're never in much trouble when a fireman's with you

Dalmation on the truck is cool, he's hanging with his crew

And if things get too hot, they will be there!

That's the Firefighter Way!

Mad About Mushrooms

I'm crazy for beans

I'm cuckoo for peas

I do backflips for broccoli

More kohl rabe, please!

I love me some squash

I'm devoted to beets

I'd turn cartwheels for carrots

More cucumbers, sweets!

Asparagus, tomatoes

Zucchini and potatoes

Make my heart go zing

I'd pay you by the hour

For some cauliflower

Veggies are my thing!

I'm mad about mushrooms

I adore a Brussels sprout

I'd walk a mile for an artichoke

Veggies knock me out!

Oh Annabelle

Oh, Annabelle, I had to tell

You that I love you so I wrote you this song

Oh, Annabelle, I had to tell

You that I love you so I wrote you this song

You're extra strong

You're super funny

Your dance moves are the funkiest 

I've seen anywhere

You climb and jump

You roll and tumble

You are surprisingly gentle 

When you're combing my hair

Drink lots of juice

Eat lots of cereal

Ignore the bed, sleep on the floor

In your cowboy boots

You think I call you Spazzolino

That's the Italian word for toothbrush,

So that's not quite the truth

You're a big girl

You're always learning

Your heart is full of sunshine

That you've just gotta share

Swim like a fish

Roar like a dino

Celebrate like Princess Poppy

With your hair in the air!

Olivia Knows This Song

Olivia knows this song

You might wanna sing along

The melody is catchy and the beat is strong

And Olivia knows this song

This song is not about five frogs or monkeys

Or wheels on busses going round and round

But Olivia will say that she'll sing it every day

And this kid knows the coolest songs in town

It's not about a farmer named MacDonald

Or how the nighttime stars can twinkle bright

But it makes Olivia smile, so I'll sing it for a while

Because that smile can fill me with delight

Sometimes

Sometimes the world seems too big and I'm so small

And I don't like new faces or sounds or places at all

It's out of control, I don't know my role,

It's loud and it's scary, It makes me feel wary

Sometimes the world seems too big and I'm so small

Sometimes I wish I were very brave and strong

That the new and the different didn't seem overwhelming and wrong

And when I get older, I'll be so much bolder,

But for the time being, the fear's all I'm seeing

Sometimes I wish I were very brave and strong

Sometimes I need you to be right by my side

Just in case it's too much and I need a safe place to hide

I try and I try, I don't mean to be shy

But when all that I see is much bigger than me,

Sometimes I need you to be right by my side

Sometimes the world seems too big and I'm so small

And I don't like new faces or sounds or places at all

It's out of control, I don't know my role,

It's loud and it's scary, It makes me feel wary

Sometimes the world seems too big and I'm so small

Sometimes the world seems too big and I'm so small

Song for Addy

My best friend stands forty inches high

She's got tangles in her hair and a twinkle in her eye

She smells like adventure, and her cheeks have a glow

And fun and wonder follow wherever we may go

My best friend is funny, smart, and strong

On her face is a smile, in her heart there's a song

She's the brightest ray of sunshine you could ever hope to see

She adds sparkle to my spirit 'cause she's a friend to me

My best friend has mulberry-stained toes

There is mischief in her eye, she wears glasses on her nose

Her laughter sounds like music and she hasn't got a fear

My heart bubbles over whenever she is near

Taking Care of My Body

Taking care of my body

Gotta feed it right

I need to run and play

And get some sleep at night

I gotta take a bath

And keep my teeth clean too

Staying healthy and strong

My whole life through

I've gotta eat a good breakfast

And maybe meditate

Remember to be thankful

To start my day off great

Stretch all of my muscles

And fill my lungs with fresh air

Walk tall and strong

To show my body I care

 

I've gotta read and study

To keep my mind real strong

Then eat a healthy meal

When lunchtime comes along

I need to drink some water

Don't want to get too dry

And wash my hands

To de-germify

 

After my busy day

Home with my family

We're gonna eat a healthy dinner

And talk so happily

And when it's time for bed

I'll hug 'em all real tight

Maybe read a little story

Before I turn out the light

You Are My Friend

You are my friend You make me smile
I’d like to play With you a while
We could ride bikes Or play with trains
Or build a fort For when it rains
It doesn’t matter What we do
As long as I Can be with you
Because until the very end
You are my friend

You are my friend I’m glad you’re here
I can be myself When you are near
Let’s dance a jig Or read a book
Adventure’s ev-Erywhere we look
It doesn’t matter What we’ll see
As long as you Are here with me
Because until the very end
You are my friend

You are my friend I like your style
Let’s sit and color For a while
We’ll swing on swings Or climb a tree
I’ll follow you, You’ll follow me
It doesn’t matter Where we go
We’ll have a ball And this we know
Because until the very end
You are my friend
