My friend told me she doesn’t know what love is So I’ll show her all the ways I love her We’ll make heart cards, with a million kisses We’ll grow flowers, so that we can pick them We’ll take our flowers and give them to our best friends This is love This is love This is love This! Is! Love! I love my brother, even though he breaks stuff I love my sister, even when she wakes me up I love my best friend, even when we fall out We love sweeties… because they make us hyper This is love This is love This is love This! Is! Love! When my dog pukes I give him water, He drinks it slowly, 'cause you can’t rush love ...you can rush love! 1, 2, 1 2 3 4! Rock and Roll outta control! Rolling down a hill, rolling down a deep hill This is love This is love This is love This! Is! Love!

Octopus 04:28
Come aboard our sailing boat It’s called the HMS Bumpy, oh I hope that it floats Off to find an octopus, I hear it lives in Loch Lomond so we know where to look Sailing out, out, out in our boat Sailing out, out, out out in our boat Three hearts, no bones Small spaces are it’s home Octopus, oh Octopus 8 legs, 9 brains Beautiful colours never stays the same Octopus, oh Octopus I see something up ahead A very big shape is it our Octopus friend Suddenly a tail pops out, It’s a whale! What is it talking about? [Whale noises] Sailing out, out, out in our boat Sailing out, out, out out in our boat Three hearts, no bones Small spaces are it’s home Octopus, oh Octopus 8 legs, 9 brains Beautiful colours never stays the same Octopus, oh Octopus We’ve been out at sea for days When we see an Octopus cresting the wave Its tentacles all wave hello Before it swims back down deep below Sailing out, out, out in our boat Sailing out, out, out out in our boat Three hearts, no bones Small spaces are it’s home Octopus, oh Octopus 8 legs, 9 brains Beautiful colours never stays the same Octopus, oh Octopus

How old will I be on my next birthday? Every night I’m growing in my sleep I wake up and my hands are bigger My clothes have changed, so have my feet How old will I be on my next birthday? When I’m older could I be? Spider-man, a reindeer or a mermaid in the deep blue sea When I’m older could I be? Wonder Woman, a goblin or a mermaid in the deep blue sea I’ll be the same but different I’ll be the same but different How old will I be on my next birthday? I’m moving up to the big school And the next time when I go swimming It’s the big flume, and the deep end of the pool How old will I be on my next birthday? When I’m older I could be Supergirl, a unicorn, a mermaid in the deep blue sea When I’m older I could be. A teenage mutant ninja turtle, a mermaid in the deep blue sea When I’m older I could be Spider-man, a reindeer or a mermaid in the deep blue sea When I’m older I could be Wonder Woman, a goblin or a mermaid in the deep blue sea I’ll be the same but different I’ll be the same but different

It’s hard to hide a dragon, it’s not hard to find a dragon 'Cause a dragon always comes home, a dragon always comes home The dragon lives in a cave, A cave in a forest, a cave in a forest Beside a volcano A cave in a forest, a cave in a forest See its teeth, hear it roar, Watch out for its fire breath Watch out for i’s fire breath! It’s hard to hide a dragon, it’s not hard to find a dragon 'Cause a dragon always comes home, a dragon always comes home Behind the container, That’s where the dragon hides, that’s where the dragon hides, It hides from the rain, That puts out its fire breath, that puts out its fire breath See its teeth, hear it roar, Watch out for it’s fire breath Watch out for it’s fire breath! It’s hard to hide a dragon, it’s not hard to find a dragon 'Cause a dragon always comes home, a dragon always comes home
