Bath Time Blues
I'm five years old, I'm big and brave.
My bed's a rock, my house a cave!
I'll battle a lion, I'll battle a shark!
I'm not afraid of the dark!
Or the monsters who hide in my closet to eat
Me after I've fallen fast asleep.
I'm not afraid of you at all!
Go take a hike! Go to the mall!
Go east or west! Take any path!
but I refuse to take a bath!
Passing Time
I'm watching the minute hand move on the clock.
I'm hearing the music of ticking and tocks.
Every day time moves so fast,
but now I am counting the minutes go past.
Shh! I am watching the hands on the clock.
I'm watching the sun sail through the sky.
I'm smiling at clouds as they float by.
Every day, time moves so fast
But now I am counting the minutes go past.
Shh! I am watching the sun in the sky.
I'm watching my green garden grow.
I'm caring for seeds that I sow.
Every day time moves so fast,
But now I am counting the minutes go past.
Shh! I am watching my green garden grow.
