Toes 01:58
I can stand on my toes/ I can stand on my toes/ Everybody here knows I can stand on my toes. And I can jump real high/ I can jump real high/ oh I jump so high looks like I might fly. I know I can do it/ I know that you can do it too Lalalalalalalalalalalala/ I can sing my song (lala!)/ I can sing my song (lala!)/ Even if I get it wrong well it’s still my song. And I can do a funky dance/ Yeah I can do a funky dance/ You give me half a chance I’ll dance right out of these pants. I know I can do it/ I know that you can do it too Yeah I know I can do it/ And I know that you can do it too/ I know that we can do it together.

And the mice that were there they weren’t even invited/ And the day of the affair had never even been decided/ And the canopy was partially propped up in the backyard/ And no one’s even sure if mamma sent out invitation cards Well papa burned the bacon badly but he undercooked the casserole/ And the hotdogs disappeared like they’d up and gone out for a stroll/ And the platypus was putting puzzle pieces in the penguin’s purse/ And the hamsters hunkered down in the bathroom working on a voodoo curse Oh no we never, ever could have known/ It’d be the very worst party ever thrown, the worst party ever thrown And the blue jay couldn’t sing a lick/ We probably shouldn’t have paid her before the gig/ And the clown couldn’t juggle to save his life/ He was just a snake so no one was surprised When the party was over papa turned to momma and he said/ “For just how long has that bird been sleeping on your head?”/ After I swept up the Jell-O I fell asleep right away/ Then I woke up in the morning with giraffes on my porch saying, “We thought the party was today!” Oh no we never, ever could have known/ It’d be the very worst party ever thrown, the worst party ever thrown - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Well the was a little boy who wanted to be a princess/ So he put on a pink and sparkly dress/ And he wore it all around the town dancing and twirling/ And when he stops is anybody’s guess Oh no it doesn’t matter what you do just how you do it/ Make sure it’s full of happiness and heart/ Oh no it doesn’t matter what you do just how you do it/ Make sure it’s full of love right from the start And there was a little girl wanted to be a cowboy/ So she put on chaps and she put on some cowboy boots/ And in a ten gallon hat she saddled up a palomino/ And with some outlaws she fell into cahoots Oh no it doesn’t matter what you do just how you do it/ Make sure it’s full of happiness and heart/ Oh no it doesn’t matter what you do just how you do it/ Make sure it’s full of love right from the start All the world is a place for you to shine Oh no it doesn’t matter what you do just how you do it/ Make sure it’s full of happiness and heart/ Oh no it doesn’t matter what you do just how you do it/ Make sure it’s full of love right from the start - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Hot Lava 02:43
Don’t fall off the couch cause the carpet is lava/ You can sit there and read a book all day if ya gotta/ Or have this bucket of fruit it’s mango and guava/ Just don’t fall off the couch cause the carpet is lava Why this river of fire is flowing through the middle of our house I cannot say/ We know that it’s kinda hot in here but we’d like you to stay and play all day Don’t fall off the couch cause the carpet is lava/ You can sit there and read a book all day if ya gotta/ Or have this bucket of fruit it’s mango and guava/ Just don’t fall off the couch cause the carpet is lava Trying to get this river of fire out the middle of our house is gonna be tough/ If you need to heat your home just gimme a call cause we got the good stuff and more than enough Don’t fall off the couch cause the carpet is lava/ You can sit there and read a book all day if ya gotta/ Or have this bucket of fruit it’s mango and guava/ Just don’t fall off the couch cause the carpet is lava - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Droolin' 01:42
I put rocks in my mouth/ I put socks in my mouth/ I put blocks in my mouth/ That’s what I be doin’/ I’mma sit around here all day long and get up to some droolin’ I put a plate in my mouth/ I put a gate in my mouth/ I put the number 8 in my mouth/ That’s what I be doin’/ I’mma sit around here all day long and get up to some droolin’ If you were one year old then you would know what I’m talking about/ How many different things can I get in my mouth? Whoa surely it’s not a crime/ To mark with my mouth that which is mine I put a shoe in my mouth/ Anything blue in my mouth/ I’ll even put you in my mouth/ That’s what I be doin’/ I’mma sit around here all day long and get up to some droolin’ - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Big red truck and it’s rolling on down the road/ Bending at the buckle cause it’s busting with a big old load/ Gonna do what it’s gotta do/ Chugga chugga vroom vroom vroom/ taking all my lovin’ bringing all my lovin’ home to you. Got a trailer and a hitch and a rocket and a turbo switch/ ten foot tires gonna give ya just whatever you wish/ Gonna do what it’s gotta do/ Chugga chugga vroom vroom vroom/ taking all my lovin’ bringing all my lovin’ home to you. Whoa you know my truck is so tough/ Whoa you know it’s got the right stuff Don’t matter that road how long or how it bends/ You gonna get this message that I send/ Gonna do what I gotta do/ Chugga chugga vroom vroom vroom/ taking all my lovin’ bringing all my lovin’ home to you. - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

All Okay 02:51
Sometimes all I can do is cry/ Best way for me to say what’s on my mind/ Sometimes all I can do is shout/ Best way for me to get it out But when I get your kisses well it’s all okay yes it’s all okay/ And when I get your cuddles well it’s all okay yes it’s all okay Sometimes I can only change my mind/ It can be so hard to decide/ Sometimes I can only stand my ground/ You call it stubborn I call it hangin’ around But when I get your kisses well it’s all okay yes it’s all okay/ And when I get your cuddles well it’s all okay yes it’s all okay Sometimes I can only run around/ It can be so hard to slow down/ Sometimes I don’t wanna do a thing/ Just sit around and see what tomorrow bring But when I get your kisses well it’s all okay yes it’s all okay/ And when I get your cuddles well it’s all okay yes it’s all okay - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Bed Head 02:45
Woke up this morning/ Tried to sneak out the door when/ That’s when I heard what momma said. “You better check in the mirror/ Couldn’t be much clearer/ Looks like you got a bad case of the bed head”. Whooo-oooo/ Gotta bad case of bed head Whooo-oooo/ Gotta bad case of bed head Walking down the street and/ People staring at me and/ Saying “Is that a plate of spaghetti on your head?” I don’t know what to do cause/ I only wish they knew it was/ just a bad case of the bed head Whooo-oooo/ Gotta bad case of bed head Whooo-oooo/ Gotta bad case of bed head Don’t bother me much now/ Its just hair anyhow/ Just kinda get used to it after a while/ Maybe in the morning/ When I’m all done snoring/ I’ll have a brand new style Whooo-oooo/ Gotta bad case of bed head Whooo-oooo/ Gotta bad case of bed head - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

To The Zoo 02:18
I just wanna go to the zoo/ Take the train just me and you/ We can go and watch the bears/ Dance around in their underwear/ Shakin’ their tails like they just don’t care And we can get some cotton candy/ Sit around and watch the monkeys/ Swinging from the ropes/ It’d be super dope/ I really hope you’ll come along too I just want to go to the zoo/ I just wanna go to the zoo/ I just wanna go to the zoo/ Take the train just me and you The zoo/ The zoo/ The zoo/ Whoa—ooooo/ Take the train just me and you/ The zoo - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Ducks don’t get wet/ Ducks don’t get wet/ Ducks don’t get wet/ How cool can you get? Did you know that ducks do not get wet?/ They’ve got special feathers that keep them dry/ They’re happy swimming in the water/ Or flying high up in the sky/ But… Ducks don’t get wet/ Ducks don’t get wet/ Ducks don’t get wet/ How cool can you get? Ducks they like to make a funny sound/ As the water rolls right off their backs/ They open up their silly bills/ And let out a mighty “QUACK!!”/ But… Ducks don’t get wet/ Ducks don’t get wet/ Ducks don’t get wet/ How cool can you get? Ducks don’t get wet/ Ducks don’t get wet/ Maybe you get wet/ But ducks don’t get wet - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Suction Cup 03:32
I knew a dragon had a mullet wig that went down to the tip of his tail/ He drove a forklift every day he was saving for vacation/ I took his photo put it in a book and passed it round the table My momma said, “Whoa, whoa waddya know?”/ My papa said, “Hahahahahahaha would you look at that!”/ Whoa would you look at that I knew a hippo swam across the ocean for forty days/ He made friends on every island with coconut kneecaps/ I took his photo put it in a book and passed it round the table My momma said, “Whoa, whoa waddya know?”/ My papa said, “Hahahahahahaha would you look at that!”/ Whoa would you look at that My little brother does a dance around the kitchen with a plunger/ He waves it high above his head as he sings this song/ “Whaddya know it’s a suction cup! Whaddya know it’s a suction cup!” - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Twirlin' 02:18
She just keeps twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin’ around/ She just keeps twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin’ around/ And she’s never gonna stop, why would she/ She’s a princess – oooooohhhhh And he keeps on twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin’ around/ Yes he keeps on twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin and twirlin’ around/ And he’s never gonna stop, why would he/ He’s a princess – oooooohhhhhh/ And he’s a tornado/ And she’s a princess/ And she’s a hurricane/ And he’s a princess/ And he’s a cyclone/ And she’s a princess/ Yeah she’s a princess/ Oh twirlin’ and twirlin’ and twirlin’ around - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf

Monster Suit 00:56
If I had a monster suit/ I tell you just what I’d do/ I’d find all the bad guys and I’d yell “boo!” And if I had a monster suit/ I tell you just what I’d do/ I’d run down the hills of this town/ yellin’ whooo In my monster suit - See more at: http://mophillips.com/lyrics/#sthash.FIZIqMbY.dpuf
