CHILDREN YET, THE TALE TO HEAR
Lyrics:
Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.
In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream —
Lingering in the golden gleam —
Life, what is it but a dream?

COOK SONG:
Lyrics:
Speak roughly to your little boy,
And curse him when he sneezes,
Ah! He only does it to annoy,
Because he know it teases.
Chorus: Waa! Waa! Waa!
I speak severely to my boy
And curse him when he sneezes.
For he can thoroughly enjoy
The pepper when he pleases.
Chorus: Waa! Waa! Waa!
And curse him when he sneezes,
Ah! He only does it to annoy,
Because he know it teases.
Chorus: Waa! Waa! Waa!
I speak severely to my boy
And curse him when he sneezes.
For he can thoroughly enjoy
The pepper when he pleases.
Chorus: Waa! Waa! Waa!

FLOWER SONG:
Lyrics:
We are flowers, blooming in the day
We are flowers, that’s what we say
The grass is green, & the sky is blue
The day is bright, and we’re all right, birds are singing too
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like sitting in the sun all day
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like you really enjoy this play
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like you wanna hide from the queen
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like the queen is really mean
We are flowers, that’s what we say
The grass is green, & the sky is blue
The day is bright, and we’re all right, birds are singing too
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like sitting in the sun all day
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like you really enjoy this play
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like you wanna hide from the queen
Because we’re flowers
Clap along if you feel like the queen is really mean

MOCK TURTLE (JOIN THE DANCE):
Lyrics:
“Will you walk a little faster?”
said a whiting to a snail.
“There is a porpoise close behind us,
and he’s treading on my tail.
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you,
Will you, won’t you, will you, join the dance
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you,
Will you, won’t you, will you
See how eagerly the lobsters and
the turtles all advance, now!
They are waiting on the shingle—
will you come and join the dance, now?
Will you, won’t you, join the dance, now?
Will you, won’t you, join the dance, now?
Yeah!!
