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

Popcorn 02:42
POPCORN CHORUS: Pop pop pop Pop pop pop pop Corn Pop pop pop Pop pop pop pop We can smell it cooking from a mile away We could eat hundred million pounds a day Piled high in a bucket Or red striped sack Everybody give it up for our favorite snack CHORUS So bring out the pans, bring out the pots Mama turns on the stove and gets the oil hot Throw some in, to begin We give a hop We don't stop until the last pop in the tin CHORUS And if you're desperate we've saved a bag that has to be microwaved To say we've buttered up, well there's a kernel of truth My sis loves kettle corn, she has a sweet tooth So catch you all in September at the county fair Wherever there's popping you know you'll find us there CHORUS

CHORUS: Susie's got a pet, Johnny's got a pet But I haven't got a pet yet Gertrude's got a goldfish (a really-really wet pet) Petunia has a poodle (fill its fur with your barrettes pet) Tilly's got a turtle, everybody's got a pet now Everybody's got a pet except me Henrietta has a horse (put you in a lot of debt pet) Silas has a snake of course (it's a garter don't you fret pet) Belinda has a bunny and for me it's just not funny Everybody's got a pet now Everybody's got a pet except me Mother, Father, I present to you in PowerPoint Reasons I need a dog… I mean it, I'll clean it, I'll preen it The best you ever seen it til I'm 113. I'm up to the test, I'll do my best I will not rest, on my pet quest I'm sure that I can handle the routine R-E-S-P-onsibility, find out what it means to me

Ukulalien 02:27
Once a little UFO crashed in the sea It landed near some islands named Hawaii The alien got pulled down by the undertow Toward a soothing sound from the rainbow reef below It was a ukulele, little alien A tiny humu-humu fish strummed happily It snorted sand, "Let's start a band, Come play with me" "I need a ukulele," Said the alien The humu-humu-nuku-nuku apu'a Had an extra at home made by her papa They jammed together making waves and foamy foam Then the alien started to miss its' home The little fish made a fix on the UFO Then set it on an underwater volcano Take this ukulele, little alien! Thank you said the alien, now please take care The eruption shot the ship back the air There goes the ukulele, Ukualien
