The CitizenSHIP
Get on board the citizenship.
Make your mark; this is it!
Get on board the citizenship.
Tell your heart this is it!
You know it’s up to you.
There’s really lots to do.
Together we can build a better world.
Get on board the citizenship.
Make your mark; this is it!
Get on board the citizenship.
Tell your heart this is it!
You know it’s up to you.
There’s really lots to do.
Together we can build a better world.
Get on board the citizenship.
Make your mark; this is it!
Get on board the citizenship.
Tell your heart this is it!
Tell your heart this is it!
The Gimmes
There once was a boy
with an awful disease.
It affected him in the grocery,
At the mall, down the hall,
almostev’rywhere.
Run and hide! It’s the gimmes,
you must beware!
“Gimme candy, gimme stuff!”
He could never get enough.
He’d say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!”
He’d say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!
Gimme what I want!”
He just couldn’t help
the feeling he’d get,
When he’d see a toy he didn’t have yet.
He’d stomp his feet and start to scream.
When he didn’t get his way,
he’d make a scene.
“Gimme candy, gimme stuff!”
He could never get enough.
He’d say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!”
He’d say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!
Gimme what I want!”
One day when the boy
was out on the street,
He saw a man beggin’
for something to eat.
All that he owned would fit in your car.
Then the selfish boy
knew he’d gone too far.
“Don’t give me candy,
don’t give me stuff!”
He finally knew he’d had enough.
Instead of bein’ filled with greed,
The selfish boy started thinking
of those in need!
He used to say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!”
He used to say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!
Gimme what I want!”
He reached in his pocket
and gave what he could.
The once greedy kid felt very good.
He’d learned a lesson he’d never forget:
It’s better to give than it is to get.
“Don’t give me candy,
don’t give me stuff!”
He finally knew he’d had enough.
He used to say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!”
He used to say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!”
He used to say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!”
He used to say, “Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I want!
Gimme what I want!”
I’ll Understand
Even though I might not agree with you,
I will respect your opinion.
Even though I might not agree with you,
I’ll understand.
How boring the world would be
Without variety.
We’ll look it your way, look at it mine.
No matter which way, it will be fine.
Even though I might not agree with you,
I will respect your opinion.
Even though I might not agree with you,
I’ll understand.
How boring the world would be
Without variety.
If ev’ryone look and talked the same,
If ev’ryone had the very same name.
Even though I might not agree with you,
I will respect your opinion.
Even though I might not agree with you,
I’ll understand.
How boring the world would be
Without variety.
If ev’ryone thought what ev’ryone thought,
If ev’ryone bought what ev’ryone bought.
Even though I might not agree with you,
I will respect your opinion.
Even though I might not agree with you,
I’ll understand.
You Gotta Be Good
Wo, you gotta be good.
Wo, you gotta be good.
Gotta do the things you know you should.
You gotta be good.
Do you know what’s wrong or right?
If you get into a fight,
Take a step back or walk away.
That is what I have to say.
Wo, you gotta be good.
Wo, you gotta be good.
Gotta do the things you know you should.
You gotta be good.
Do you know what’s right or wrong?
You don’t have to go along,
Just because it’s the thing to do.
Take a look inside of you.
Wo, you gotta be good.
Wo, you gotta be good.
Gotta do the things you know you should.
You gotta be…
You gotta be…
You gotta be good.
You gotta be good.
We Are A Family
Here we stand together,
A family you and I.
A family lasts forever,
On this you can rely.
Together we are special,
Together you and me.
Standing friend to friend
We’ll always be
A family.
A family, a family,
We’re all part of a family.
Can’t you see, you and me,
We are family.
A family, a family,
We’re all part of a family.
Can’t you see, you and me,
We are family.
A family is simple,
It’s love that’s always there.
It’s people helping people
And showing that you care.
So, I will stand beside you
And you’ll be there for me.
Wherever two are gathered
You can see
A family.
A family, a family,
We’re all part of a family.
Can’t you see, you and me,
We are family.
A family, a family,
We’re all part of a family.
Can’t you see, you and me,
We are family.
One and one is two,
Two and two makes four.
Together we can always do much more,
Much more!
A family, a family,
We’re all part of a family.
Can’t you see, you and me,
We are family.
A family, a family,
We’re all part of a family.
Can’t you see, you and me,
We are family.
We are family.
We are family.
