Scarborough Fair

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
Parsley sage, rosemary and thyme
Without no seam or needle work
Then she'll be a true love of mine

Tell her to wash it in yonder dry well
Parsley sage, rosemary and thyme
Where ne'er a drop of water ere fell
Then she'll be a true love of mine

If she tells me she can't then I will reply
Parsley sage, rosemary and thyme
At least let me know that she will try
And then she'll be a true love of mine

Shapelock Holmes the shape detective
No one else is as effective
If you need to know any shape at all
Then Shapelock Holmes is the one to call.

That’s me, Shapelock Holmes here
I’m in shape and I’m no square.
I’ll find those shapes just leave it to me
30 minutes or the next job’s free.

First up, a pair of giant dice
A lovely shape at any price
Six faces like squares, that’s the clue
I’ve solved this shape, it is a…. cube

Next on the list, a beach ball
This shape really has no sides at all
There’s nothing to count but have no fear
I’ve solved this shape it is a… sphere

Let’s see, oh yes, a party hat.
One end pointed, the other round and flat.
Let’s see, oh yes, I should have known
This particular shape is called a cone!

She'll Be Comin' round the Mountain

(c)1992, Adapted by Judy and David Gershon (SOCAN)

She'll be comin' round the mountain when she comes (toot toot)
She'll be comin' round the mountain when she comes (toot toot)
She'll be comin' round the mountain, she'll be comin' round the mountain
She'll be comin' round the mountain when she comes (toot toot)

She'll be drivin six white horses when she comes (woah back!)...

(Well) we'll all go out to meet her when she comes (Hi Babe!)...

(Well) we'll all have chicken and dumplings when she comes (Yum Yum!)...

(Well) we'll have to sleep at grandma's when she comes (scratch scratch!)...

(Well) the dogs'll start to holler when she comes (woof woof!)...

We'll we'll be sippin' sasparilla when she comes (glug glug!)...

She'll be pettin' two pink pink piggies when she comes (snort snort!)
She'll be pettin' two pink pink piggies when she comes (snort snort!)
She'll be pettin' two pink pink piggies, they'll be wearin' purple wiggies
She'll be pettin' two pink pink piggies when she comes (snort snort!)

She'll be comin' round the mountain when she comes (toot toot!)

Toot toot, woah back, hi babe, yum yum, scratch scratch, woof woof, snort snort, glug glug!
She'll be comin' round the mountain, she'll be comin' round the mountain
She'll be comin' round the mountain when she comes (toot toot)

Shelly Shauna Schaefer loved to eat shapes
She wouldn’t eat bananas, like most kids and apes
And why she wouldn’t eat ice cream
is completely unknown
She wouldn’t eat an ice cream,
but she’d sure eat a cone

Oh, Shelly, Shelly, Shelly Shauna, Shelly Shauna, Shelly Shelly Shelly Shauna
Shelly, Shelly, Shelly Shauna, Shelly Shauna, Shelly Shauna Schaefer!

Shelly Shauna Schaefer loved to eat shapes
While you and I will eat things
‘cause we like how they taste
Shelly wouldn’t eat the normal
stuff she made it quite clear
She ate my brother’s basketball ‘cuz it was a sphere

Shelly Shauna Schaefer loved to eat shapes
We caught her eating cubes one time on videotape
According to Shelly, a cube really rocks
That’s why she ate... the neighbors’ baby blocks

Shelly Shauna Schaefer loved to eat shapes
We tried to lock her up, but she’d only escape
And when a cylinder became a part of her plan
We distracted her with peaches, but she ate the can

Now you may think that this all sounds a little bit strange
But if I tell you something your opinion may change
You see I forgot one important little note
Shelly Shauna Schaefer is the name of our.... goat!

Silver Lining
(c) 1999 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

Na na na...

You say you’ve got a dream
But so much is standing in your way
And I know it seems
That you may not ever see that day
It only looks that way to you
You’ve got to change your point of view

‘Cause it’s time to stop your crying
Though the clouds may be blinding
There’s a secret to surviving
You’ve got to find your silver lining
Na na na...

You say you’re far from home
And you’ve lost yourself somewhere in yesterday
And you think that you’re alone
But you’re not the only one who feels this way
I’m a lot like you, you see
And you could lose yourself with me

Cause it’s time to stop your crying...

It’s waiting there for you
You’ve got to change your point of view

Na na na...

Yes the rain will fall and the winter will come
And the storm can swallow you whole
But if you’ve find the silver lining
You’ll be coming back for more

Simon Says
(c)2000 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

Put your hands on your shoulders, Put your hands on your nose
Put your hands on your hands (how long? Who knows)
Stomp your feet on the floor , Keep the beat with your head
But don’t do anything 'less Simon Says

Simon says, such a tricky guy
Simon says, and I'll tell you why
Tells you things to do, he whines and pouts
Doesn’t' start with "Simon Says" and you do it you're out.

Simon says put your hands on your head
You can do anything that Simon said
Now everybody, make a smile, make a frown
I didn't say Simon says, you're out, sit down

Simon says…

Simon says be a chicken and cluck
Bawk..bawk..bawk…bawk…bawk
But if Simon says, go jump in a lake
Then to listen to Simon is a big mistake

Simon says…

Simon says...

Simple Gifts

'Tis a gift to be simple, 'Tis a gift to be free
'Tis a gift to come down where you ought to be
And when we find ourselves in the place just right
'Twill be in the valley of love and delight

When true simplicity is gained
To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed
To turn, turn, will be our delight
'Til by turning and turning we come out right

'Tis a gift...

When true...

Skip to My Lou

(c)1992, Adapted by Judy and David Gershon (SOCAN)

Lost my partner, what'll I do (3x)
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip, skip to my Lou (3x)
Skip to my Lou my darling

Gotta find me a new gal, yes I do
Find me a new gal, yes I do
I gotta find me a new gal yes I do
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip...

Got an eye for the gal with the ribbon on her shoe
An eye for the gal with the ribbon on her shoe
I got an eye for the gal with ribbon on her shoe
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip...

Hello, miss, and howdy do?
I reckon I'd like to dance with you
What do you say to a lover, true
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip...

How do I know your love is true? (3x)
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip...

Skip, skip...

Roses are red and violets are blue
And none's as pretty as the likes of you
So what do you say to a dance or two?
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip...
Yes, but how do I know your love is true
Before I go and dance with you
What, exactly, makes this violet blue?
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip...

Well the song's nearly over, just a chorus or two
And I'd really love to dance with you
You caught my eye with your pretty little shoe
Skip to my Lou my darling

Skip, skip...

If all you can see is pretty little shoes
I'm sure they'd love to dance with you
Here's the ribbon, here's the shoe
I'll skip to the Lou without them

Skip, skip... (2x)

Sole Woman (Livin' In a Shoe)

(c) 1997 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe
She had so many children she knew not what to do
Some say she's a monster, a mean cruel troll
But she spends her life in leather I'd say that lady's got soul

Livin' in a shoe...

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe
She had so many children she did not know what to do
She's a sole woman, livin' in a shoe

She had 32 kids at home, from old to very young
Sometimes they'd shout from the top of the roof
She'd say "Hey now, hold your tongue!"
She's a sole woman, livin' in a shoe

There was an old woman who hid out in her shoe
They called her a little sneaker, they called her a heel too
Some said she was a loafer 'cause she never knew what to do
But what do you say? I say she's a sole woman, livin' in a shoe

When the shoe was old the rain came in
The place looked like a dump
Her son swam over and said to her
"Mom, we need new pump"
Just a sole woman, livin in a shoe

Landlord came by one day in his fancy suit
Said he could not wait for the rent no more
So he gave her the boot
Now she's a sole woman...Livin' in a boot!

 

So Much in Common
(c)2000 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

You and I, we got so much in common
Two arms two ears and one heart (to hold you and to hear you and to love)
You and I, we got to get together
Don’t let anybody keep us apart

So many people are blinded by what they see
Black, brown, yellow, white, well it’s all the same to me
So many ways, so many beliefs
But we’re just branches on one great big tree

You and I...

I like the sun and you like the moon
You sing a song, I know a different tune
Your picture of heaven is different than mine
But still here we are, underneath the same stars,
Let’s just be friends and not waste any more time

(bridge)

You and I...

So Much the Same
(c) 2004 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon (SOCAN)

In my class we play a game
It’s called so much different, so much the same
You gotta stand up tall if we’re talking about you
Then sit back down – that’s all you gotta do
It’s so much different, so much the same
So much different, so much the same

If your hair is brown, stand up tall
If your hair is black, stand up y’all
If your hair is blond, stand up high
If your hair is red, give it a try
Stand up if your hair’s not one of these
Now sit back down everybody if you please

It’s so much different…

If your eyes are brown, stand up tall
If your eyes are blue, stand up y’all
If your eyes are green, stand up high
If your eyes are hazel, give it a try
Stand up if your eyes aren’t one of these
Now sit back down everybody if you please

We got kids of every shape and size
Different colour skin, different colour eyes
Some from the country, some from a town
Takes all kinds of people to make the world go round

If you love chocolate, stand up tall
If you love pizza, stand up y’all
If you love spaghetti, stand up high
If you love ice cream, give it a try
If you love rotten eggs, stand up tall
If you love stale bread, stand up y’all
If you love eating worms, stand up high
If you love hot mustard sundaes, give it a try
Now sit back down, sit back down
Takes all kinds of people to make the world go round
Sit back down everybody if you please.

 

Sorting Socks
(c) 2004 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon (SOCAN)

I’m gonna make one big pile, one big pile
One big pile of socks
I’ll just scoop these socks up off the floor
And put them all in one big drawer – they don’t fit!

So we’ll just make two big piles, two big piles
Two big piles of socks
One pile for clean socks
And one pile for socks that are smelly!
I’ll just scoop these socks...

Guess I’ll have to try three big piles
Three big piles, three big piles of socks
One pile for new socks, one pile for old socks
One pile for socks that have holes
I’ll just scoop these socks...

So I’ll have to make four big piles, four big piles
Four big piles of socks
One pile for blue socks, one pile for red socks
One pile for white socks, and one pile for socks
That have little yellow duckies!
Let’s scoop these socks up off the floor
And put them all in four big drawers… THEY FIT!

Now there are no more socks, no more socks
No more socks sitting on my floor.

Stack Attack
(c)2004 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

Stack attack, he's got a stack attack!
Anything he sees he'll try to stack it right up to the sky

When Jack was just a baby boy
His granny brought him home a toy
A great big box of baby blocks, you see
Each side is flat, imagine that
Soon he had this stacking thing down pat
He stacked them higher than a maple tree

When Jack was three he stacked tin cans
It did not work as he had planned
They rolled away and I will tell you why
Poor old Jack he tried and tried
But you can't stack tin cans on their side
So he stood them right side up and stacked them high

At the bowling alley one sad day
They had to take poor Jack away
He tried to stack the bowling balls, you know
Flat sides? A bowling ball has none
It was over before it had begun
And poor Jack almost broke his baby toe

Well stacking Jack he did not quit
It's hard to stack spheres I admit
But Jack was no ordinary kid
A bunch of oranges he found
And stacked right up from the ground
He stacked them high, in a great big pyramid

His name is Jack. Don't hold him back
When he's got a stack attack

 

Standing Up

(c) 1999 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

I get up in the morning with a nasty ring-a-ling
It's my alarm clock screaming so I push down the button thing
Jump up, get outa bed and go downstairs
Eat up all my breakfast, then I get down outa there

Standin' up, sittin down
Feeling like a roller-coaster movin' all around
Standin' up, sittin down
And planting my feet... on the ground

I climb right up into the bus, see my friend and I sit down.
She says 'hey, what's up? What’s with the big frown?'
I say 'I'm feelin' like a yo-yo, I'm feelin' like a clown,
I'm gettin' kinda tired'
'Hey now, don't let it get you down!'

Standin' up...

Stay on the Path
(c)2000 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

When you're walkin' on your own (when you’re walkin’ on your own)
And you’re very far from home
Just remember not to roam
Stay on the path

If a false path is callin you
There's something you should do
Take the way you know is true
Stay on the path

Na..na…na.. stay on the path
Na..na…na.. stay on the path

Don't get me wrong, hear what I say
Do all in your own way
Set the course, have your say
But stay on the path

Na..na…na.. stay on the path
Na..na…na.. stay on the path

P – A – T – H stay on the path
P – A – T – H stay on the path

When the forest is strange and dark
When no one else is in the park
Be yourself, make your mark
But stay on the path

Na..na…na.. stay on the path
Na..na…na.. stay on the path

 

Sun Will Shine
(c)2000 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

Sun will shine, moon will glow. Trust me child, for this I know

Sometimes you wonder
What keeps the world spinnin' round
You hear the thunder
And you tremble at the sound

But you can hold on to me
Cause I have been here before
And you don't have to be alone
When you're walkin' through that door

Sun will shine...

Sometimes you worry
Can you get back up if you take a fall
You fear tomorrow
The world is big and you are small

While to you this is all so new
I've seen it many times
So don't fear, it's why I'm here
It's gonna be just fine

Sun will shine...

It's a journey, it's a mountain
It's a curiosity
It's whatever life brings you
Just put your trust in me

Sun will shine...

 

Swing Low Sweet Chariot

Swing low sweet chariot comin' for to carry me home (2x)

Swing low sweet chariot comin' for to carry me home (2x)

I looked over Jordan and what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home
A band of angels a-comin' after me
Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low...

If you get there before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all my friends I'll be there soon
Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low...

Sometimes I'm up and then sometimes I am down
Comin' for to carry me home
Still I know my soul it is heavenly bound
Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low...

Looked over Jordan and what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home
A band of angels a-comin' after me
Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low...

 

The Symma Tree
(c)2004 All Together Now Entertainment Inc.
Words and Music by Judy and David Gershon

Oh the Symma Tree, the Symma Tree
Won’t you come and climb the Symma Tree with me?
What is on one side, the other side must be
When you’re climbing in the Symma Tree

Walking in the jungle, what a big surprise
Standing in a clearing right before my eyes
It wasn’t just a legend or a fairy tale
It was a perfect Symma Tree in every detail

A big branch on the left, A big branch on the right
And the branches looked the same
What a beautiful sight

Sitting on one branch was a singing bird
And on the other was another, as you may have heard

So come with me my friend and together we will climb
We’ll have to climb the tree at the very same time
On one side will be you, my friend, on the other will be me
If we don’t do it together then it cannot be
