One of my favorites from Free To Be, You And Me. Yeah, it's kinda sappy, but what'd you expect of me noding children's songs?
Lyrics:
Jill told Bill that it was lots of fun to cook.
Bill told Jill that she could bait a real fish hook.
So they made ooey-gooey choc'lit cake
Sticky-licky sugar top
And they gobbled it and giggled
And they sat by the river and they fished in the water
And they talked as the squirmy wormies wiggled.
Singin':
Chorus
Glad to have a friend like you
Fair, and fun, and skippin' free
Glad to have a friend like you
And glad to just be me.
Pearl told Earl that they could do a secret code
Earl told Pearl there was free ice cream when it snowed
So they sent funny letters that contained mystery messages
And nobody knew just how they made it
And they raised up the window and they scooped all the snow together
Put milk and sugar in and ate it.
Singin':
Chorus
Peg told Greg she liked to make things out of chairs
Greg told Peg sometimes he still hugged teddy bears
So they sneaked in the living room
And piled all the pillows up
And made it a rocket ship to fly in
And the bears were their girls and boys
And they were the astronauts
Who lived on the moon with one pet lion
Singin':
Chorus
...and glad to just be, glad to just me, glad to just be me!
