NEWSCASTER: "NEWS FLASH! In anytown America, a young child is embarking on a miraculous transformation! Watch and see as their powers multiply!" I put my cape over my head, it's shimmery, sparkly and red I am different when I have it on. I fly 'cross my lawn CHORUS: I go flying up into the blue With a cape, it's so true I'm stronger than a stormy breeze. I soar above all the trees I am super! Still higher I fly, and climb through the sky CHORUS Now I'm now stranger when friends are in danger I zoom on down Out of the blue I will rescue you And we're safe off the ground NEWSCASTER: "This just in! Reports are streaming in now about a young child flying high above their neighborhood... It's astounding!" CHORUS

DAY JOB My dad wakes me up at exactly seven am Use the bathroom, get dressed, and we're in the minivan Chomping down our breakfast, drop my sister at daycare I get so excited, 'cause I know we're almost there CHORUS: Off to school, more than a day job With my friends, more than a day job So many things we can be, so many things we will see Before the clock strikes three I have superpowers I'm encouraged to reveal And I do things that my teachers can't believe are real I stretch my mind and body farther than they've been before Pass snack out at record speeds and hold the heavy door CHORUS: To recess, more than a day job Rest and Read, more than a day job So many things we can be, so many things we will see Before the clock strikes three Day, day job... more than a And when I get home from school you know mom calls me her super kid I lift heavy things like the laundry basket and find where stuffies are hid (SUPER STUFFIES!) And on the weekend at the soccer game I use my bionic kick To shoot and pass the soccer ball super duper quick CHORUS

My little sister used to be strapped in tight In a bucket swing at a comfortable height (She was stuck on the sidelines) She's gotten bigger and everything thing has changed Her so called-playground life has never be the same She's a risk-taking Superstar, a wonder-dynamo Kickin' up woodchips watch her jump and go CHORUS: She's the one, C-C-C-Covered in band aids I can hardly see her face Covered in band aids, band-aids all over the place When we bundle up and head outside She makes a b-line for the spinny-slide Up to the top and over the edge Across the big wall, she jumps off the ledge Skips her way 'cross the monkeybars Underdogs on the swings, then jumps off super far CHORUS BRIDGE: She's got a pink one, a red one, a gold and glittery one There's a band-aid with a flag and we've only just begun She's got three on her knee and one underneath her chin And a mark up on her elbow where another one had been There was the time last week where she tried to ride my bike She needed at least four band-aids with that kitty that she likes Five at the park, one at the zoo Four more last week at school makes exactly 22 CHORUS

SIDEKICK I'm searching for adventure, I'm headed down the road To be a playground hero, it's a really heavy load I'm bound to face some trouble, to feel my jumprope is at its' end When things get kind of tricky, I need a buddy, a good friend CHORUS: Yeah I'm looking for sidekick! I really need sidekick, I'm really looking for a friend We could build a motorbike, with a reinforced side car Or design a super-copter, if we have to fly real far The important thing is this, it just has to fit we two And if you want to be the leader, I'll be the sidekick for you CHORUS We've kept the playground safe, from the spinners to the slide The evildoers out there, have nowhere left to hide Our class is lining up, the Justice League is having snack But after math and Spanish, we'll be racing right on back CHORUS

MY VALENTINE CHORUS: My Valentine, My Valentine Sweet little red fish of mine, Valentine Caught my heart on your line, My Valentine Mom granted a wish that I could get a fish that day, Valentine's Day Walked in the store, my jaw it hit the floor that day, Valentine's Day CHORUS Johnny Bregar piano solo! Dean Jones trombone solo! Valentine bubble solo! Love you heart and soul, made your home inside a bowl With jewels that sparkle and shine, My Valentine! I'll feed you each day, blow you a kiss, when I'm on my way Then pine for my sweet Valentine CHORUS

BRAVEST KID IN THE WORLD Today I was the bravest, the bravest, the bravest, the bravest, the bravest kid in the world I faced my greatest enemy, we battled toe to toe The elusive Dr. Fear, my arch nemesis and foe I was at home, I had purple sharpie And drew on our table accidentally-oh When my dad approached, Fear held me down I hardly could speak or utter a sound-oh I felt like I might break, 'til I admitted my mistake CHORUS: Then I was the Bravest Kid in the World Braver than ever before One time at school, my friend snuck from the playground I followed along to where no one was around-oh I said I have to go back, he said I won't be your friend Fear tried to trap me in that lonely dead end-oh In felt the courage in me grow to go let someone know CHORUS My greatest enemy lives in a hideout you can't see Works invisibly, deep inside of me One time I saw a watch down on the floor I knew that I'd seen it on my good friend before-oh Someone else grabbed it and hid it away I wanted to help but what could I say-oh What would you do, if it were up to you??? Could you be the bravest kid in the world? It's not easy, believe me But in you I see The bravest, most courageous kid in the world

YOUR FAVORITE BOOK I'm your favorite book CHORUS: Pick me up when you need a friend I'm tried and true from start to end See my pages' floppy ears Listening in year after year I'm your favorite book Yeah we've got history and it ain't no mystery In your biography, it's been you and me Like poetry, I've been so many things I've been castles filled with queens and kings Cows jumping moons and dinosaurs I've been cats in hats and flying cars My pages have worn out glue 'cause you love me and I love you too CHORUS Day by day, you turn the page and everything's okay I've got you, you've got me Another chapter in this story Between each line you learn that everything will turn out fine CHORUS

TOOLBOX Toolbox, toolbox, I get to carry you Toolbox, toolbox, wherever fixing must be done You must weigh a half a ton Toolbox, toolbox, we made a big birdhouse Toolbox, toolbox, repaired the outlet near the stove You are a treasure trove CHORUS: I am a toolbox caddy, An apprentice to my daddy Learning the trade One Sunday at a time Toolbox, toolbox, there is a hammer in there Toolbox, toolbox, the socket wrench is handy too If you've got tightenin' to do. Toolbox, toolbox, I found a rasp in there Toolbox, toolbox, and all the drill bits tucked in rows I love to hear them go CHORUS For my birthday, birthday I got my own toolbox Filled it, filled it with lots of things from Lou's hardware They really seem to know us there CHORUS

GRANDMOM'S HOUSE Well it's Sunday afternoon, we'll be heading out real soon Over the river and through the woods For a playdate at Grammom's house alright Grammom's House! It's not really a house, it's an apartment With about a hundred steps up to the summit I know I'm not supposed to run But racing up is fun at Grammom's house She's got our photos ‘bout the place, he loves to smooch my cherub face We go for walks and have nice talks when I'm at Grammom's House I've got a drawing table there with a just right sized chair Special snacks for me, love so unconditionally at Grammom's house Grammom's House! I don't know what I'd do, what I'd do without you, my Grammom Grandmother, Nanna, Nan, do you have an Oba-Chan? Abuela, Nainai, Oma, a MeMaw in Oklahoma YaYa, Tutu, Big Mom, Is she Grans, Grammy or a Mom Mom? Babushka, Granma too, who are special gals to you? Shout out! GRAND MOM!!! We don't know what we'd do without you, our grammoms

INVISIBLE FRIEND There's a girl that's standing next to me She's the kind of friend a little hard to see... clearly (It was a mix of whiteout and some vanishing cream And the dust from the erasers I went outside and was clapping That gave me transparency) An invisible friend The leaves were crunching near me, Yeah I could tell Then I knew her by the swing that seemed to swing itself Oh oh oh, magically (I called out and he whispered his name I said that I was six and he told me he was the same age as me) She's my invisible friend (I'm his invisible friend) You're great at dodgeball (I use super-stealth) But at gym it looks like I'm square dancing with myself You've got ten secret powers (I use them magically) With me you always agree Two voices so united to fight all this grown-up tyranny No matter what may come, it's you and me You've snuck us cookies (Just a couple times) A friend like you is not that easy to find naturally She's my invisible friend (I'm his invisible friend)

Early Saturday mornin', half past seven am Mom and Dad are still yawnin' but I'm all jiggle and jam Saddle up at the counter bangin' on some pots and pans I'm all set to get mixing, mama says, "Wash your hands!" CHORUS: Flapjacks, can I have another, can I have another one please? Big sis is setting the table, I help carry the plates Mama's watching the griddle, bubbles all over the cakes Flip, flip, flip, flip, the batch is almost done Heat the syrup and cover up every one CHORUS Daddy's drinking his coffee, radio is up high Mama goes out to the driveway to bring the paper inside We dig in to our pancakes, shovel in all we can If we're still feeling hungry, put some more in the pan And when I'm in the mood for my favorite food, Gotta make some pancakes! F-L-A-P-J-A-C-K-S, With the butter on top! CHORUS

BUNK BED I've moved way down the hallway to where life is so much better Me and my little brother now share a double-decker CHORUS: We're livin', we're livin' in a bunkbed I just don't wanna bump my head I climb right up the ladder to where the view is oh so sweet Tucked in six feet high under my rocket sheet Double check for my belongings before we both set sail My flashlight and action figures stowed beside the rail CHORUS I call down to my brother but I can't hear a peep I've got a brand new joke but he's fast asleep So I stare up at the ceiling at every glow in the dark star And wonder what it'd be like to own a flying car CHORUS Now ever since the day of the merger, me and my brother, we've had ups and downs. Sometimes I like to be alone but it's so nice to have him around It's good to know I've got a friend below Happy, sad, lonely, he is the best company CHORUS

SUPER STUFFIES I have an animal that's fluffy, a stuffy dog named Ruffy His ears so brown and puffy, it's true I bought a hand towel for a dollar and stuck it to his collar It made him six feet taller, it's true He leaped from the bunkbed and flew around my dazzled head And then he stopped and said... "I'm Super Stuffy!" I took my super stuffy hero to my next door neighbor Nero Said there's nothing more to fear-o for you..." He placed a crocheted oven mitten 'round favorite stuffy kitten He was suddenly quite smitten, it's true And then there were two! They took off from the floor and made a b-line for the door and then they stopped! Two super stuffies A super dog and super kitty, zooming across the whole city! They flew! NEWSCASTER: "And then, the Super Stuffies festooned with their Super Stuffy capes, took off from their neighborhood launching pad and flew all around town all the way to the elementary school... where they landed in our protagonists' cubby. Let's see what happens at school! At 10 it was time to eat our snacks, we found our stuffies in our packs We just couldn't put them back, it's true! The super stuffies broke right through We spied our teacher in the mirror, approaching ever nearer To the stuffies it was clearer, it was true They knew what to do! They sprung right from our grasp and rocketed over the class And then they stopped! Super Stuffies NEWSCASTER: "And, that classroom teacher was befuddled as she spied around the classroom, tiny Super Stuffy heads appearing in each of her students' backpacks. There was a giraffe wearing a dishrag! And a sea otter with a mitten pinned to its neck! A porpoise was wrapped in a baby blanket, and a panda wearing a bandana! There was a swordfish with a John Vanderslice t-shirt, and an orangutan with a paper towel clutched in its paw! A steam locomotive was wearing a sock! And of course, a Mayor Monkey puppet wearing a necktie! And then, without warning, the super stuffy clan took off from its classroom perch and launched high into the sky over the elementary school, flying in an enormous V-formation! It was last seen somewhere over Poughkeepsie, looking across America for other Super Stuffies to join its flock. And now, dear listener, it's your turn: Find your stuffed animal and find a cape, bring them together and let it fly! This is your field reporter from Monkeytown News, signing off. Good night everyone, and good luck.

FLYING (REPRISE) I found this cape on my bed, shimmering, sparkly and red I felt different when I tried it on I flew cross my lawn I was flying up into the blue With a cape oh so true Stronger than a stormy breeze, I went above of the trees I felt super Still higher I flew, past a flight to Peru And I was flying up into the blue With a cape oh so true Now... my son has a blanket that's red He keeps it on top of his bed He feels better when he has it near There's nothing to fear And we go flying up into the blue With his cape oh so true
