elsie glen records: song lyrics

Polly Pelak is...5 and a half
(Release Date: April 20, 2004)

ARE WE THERE YET? (Stellpflug/Allen) See the tree-tops, zoomin' by. There's a rainbow, in the sky. On a road trip in the car. I'm excited, is it far? From the backseat I make up an endless rhyme. Tell me will you play my music one more time. Are we there yet…Are we there yet? Are we there yet…Are we there yet? Playin' games and singing songs. Hope we get there before too long. I spy something red and blue. Look out your window, you'll see it too. ? From the backseat I make up an endless rhyme. Tell me will you play my music one more time. Are we there yet…Are we there yet? Are we there yet…Are we there yet? See my brother cross the line. Take a toy that he knows is mine. Daddy says we're almost there. Mommy's watchin', I guess I'll share. From the backseat I make up an endless rhyme. Tell me will you play my music one more time. Are we there yet…Are we there yet? Are we there yet…Are we there yet?

5 AND A HALF (Stellpflug/Allen) Someday soon, I'm gonna ride my bike to the moon. I'm gonna get there someday soon. Someday soon, I'm gonna stay in school past noon. I'm gonna stay there someday soon. Polly Pelak is my name. I'm just the same as you. Singing songs and playing games. I'm just the same as you-5 and a half and dreamin' of flyin' free with no more training wheels! All grown up, I'll get to stay up way past suppertime. Bedtime's eight when I'm all grown up. All grown up, reading big words like "gooble-dee-bup." So much fun to be all grown up. Polly Pelak is my name. I'm just the same as you. Singing songs and playing games. I'm just the same as you-5 and a half and dreamin' of flyin' free with no more training wheels! Makin' friends. Feeling the love that someone sends. Nothin's better than makin' friends. Makin' friends…is like havin' a birthday that never ends. I'm so happy when I'm makin' friends! Polly Pelak is my name. I'm just the same as you. Singing songs and playing games. I'm just the same as you-5 and a half and dreamin' of flyin' free with no more training wheels! Polly Pelak is my name. I'm just the same as you. Singing songs and playing games. I'm just the same as you-5 and a half and dreamin' of flyin' free with no more training wheels!

SIMON SAYS

Make a funny face, march in place. That's what Simon says. Clap your hands above your head. Dance around like Simon said! Clap your hands above your head. Dance around like Simon said! Simon says pretend your flyin'. Simon says roar like a lion. Pretend your flyin', roar like a lion. That's what Simon says. Simon says drive a truck. Simon says quack like a duck. Drive a truck, quack like a duck That's what Simon says. Clap your hands above your head. Dance around like Simon said! Simon says play the drums. Simon says here it comes. Play the drums, Here it comes. That's what Simon says. Simon says play guitar. Simon says you're a superstar. Play guitar, you're a superstar. That's what Simon says. Clap your hands above your head. Dance around like Simon said!

BEST PART OF THE DAY
(Stellpflug/Allen) My best part of the day is circle time where friends shake hands. We learn of places far away like Africa and Disneyland. Where stories are told and Simon says to stand. Yep, circle time's the best part of the day. My best part of the day is circle time and prob'bly art. I can draw a big green bird and a little red heart. Painting trees and houses for a start. Yep, art time is the best part…Ev'ry day is magic, Something fun and new. Join in my adventure, There's so much we can do! My best part of the day is circle time, but also lunch. Ridin' on the bus my stomach growls, I got a hunch Mom's mac & cheese and pretzels that crunch. Yep, lunch time is the best part…Ev'ry day is magic, Something fun and new. Join in my adventure, There's so much we can do! My best part of the day is comin' home to Mom & Dad. My brother makes me laugh. We tell about the day we had. My fam'ly's here and I am so glad. Art time is the best part…Lunch time is the best part…Comin' home's the best part of the day!

POLLY'S MAGIC DRESS-UP BOX (Stellpflug/Allen) Magic Box! My Magic Dress-Up Box! I'm the captain of the ship, I'm the pilot of the plane, If there's a race then I'm the winner! I'm the captain of the ship, I'm the pilot of the plane, I'm…just a little late for dinner! Magic Box! My Magic Dress-Up Box! I got my wacky hat, shiny shirt, silly shoes, funny face, HEY!…It's dress-up time! Magic Box! My Magic Dress-Up Box! I'm the captain of the ship, I'm the pilot of the plane, If there's a race then I'm the winner! I'm the captain of the ship, I'm the pilot of the plane, I'm…just a little late for dinner!

BLAME JAKE (Stellpflug/Allen) I'm cleanin' my room, you know pickin' up things. Ooh, I love this doll, she's the one that sings. Hey here's my racecar with lots of bumps and dings. I'm cleanin' my room…You know, findin' lost things. Hours have passed. My room's still a mess. "What happened?" Mom asked. "Not sure," I confess. Blame Jake. Jake's my new friend. Mom says he's invisible, but I know he's there…Jake can't be heard, Jake can't be seen. But Jake is the reason my room isn't clean.

IN THE PARK (Stellpflug/Allen) In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are there. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are there. On a Saturday we come out to play. We'll be out 'til dark. From all around our little town. Runnin' to the park. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are there. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are there. Maria skates while Oscar waits for Marco, Nick & Jen. Tierra sings and Ollie brings Kaneisha, Lee & Ben. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. Swinging on the swings. Sliding down the slide. Playing in the sandbox all our worlds collide. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. On the monkey bars we're superstars. We hold on tight. Hide & seek - try not to peak. Stay out of sight. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. Scooter races take us places rollin' down the track. It's time to go, but we all know that next week we'll be back. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. Swinging on the swings. Sliding down the slide. Playing in the sandbox all our worlds collide. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. When I walk home, I'm all alone. Except for Mom and Dad. I wave goodbye, but I won't cry. It's the best day I ever had. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are here. In the park that's where you'll find me. All my friends are….In the park….In the park….(You'll find me) In the park….In the park….(You'll find me)

SOMEONE'S COMIN' TO VISIT (Stellpflug/Allen) Someone's comin' to visit. I'm just wonderin' who. Someone's comin' to visit. I really hope that someone is you. Maybe we'll dance, maybe we'll shout. Once you come in, we can laugh our way out. Music will play when you arrive. We're gonna have the time of our lives! Someone's comin' to visit. Someone give me a clue. Someone's comin' to visit. I really hope that someone is you. Someone's comin'! Wonderin'. Someone's comin'. Wonder who it is…

LOOK WHAT I CAN DO! (Stellpflug/Allen) Look what I can do! Look what I can do! And you know what else? I can jump so high! And you know what else? I can make a mud pie. And you know what else? I can count to ten…One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten! Look what I can do! Look what I can do! And you know what else? I can kick the ball. And you know what else?

Look what I can do! Look what I can do! And you know what else? I can brush my hair. And you know what else? Here's my teddy bear. And you know what else? I can count to ten…in Italian! Uno, due, tre, quattro, cinque, sei, sette, otto, nove, dieci! Look what I can do! Look what I can do! And you know what else? I can write my name. And you know what else? We should play a game. And you know what else? I can count to… A HUNDRED!!! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,…

SOMETIMES I GET MAD (Stellpflug/Allen) Sometimes I get mad. Sometimes I feel bad. I lost my doll, I got gum in my hair and my…My life just isn't fair. Sometimes I get mad. Sometimes I feel bad. The sky is gray and it rained all day. "You can't believe what those weathermen say!" I'd run away, but I can't cross the street. Don't know where I would go, or what I would eat. But I gotta leave here… Sometimes I get mad. Sometimes I feel bad. I threw the ball; I got red in the face and I…I think I broke Mom's fav'rite vase. Sometimes I get mad. Sometimes I feel bad. I drew a picture on the wall by my bed and I…I can't repeat what my dad said… I'd run away, but I can't cross the street. Don't know where I would go, or what I would eat. But I gotta leave here. Yes, I gotta leave here… Sometimes I get mad. Sometimes I feel bad. I slipped and fell and I tore my dress. I walked through mud and made a mess. Sometimes I get mad. Sometimes I feel bad. I spilled the milk and I broke an egg. I dripped some ketchup on my leg… I'd run away, but I can't cross the street. Don't know where I would go, or what I would eat. So I guess I'll stay here. Yeah, I better stay here… Yes, I'm gonna stay here with you!

WHEN I GROW UP (Stellpflug/Allen) When I grow up, I'm gonna sing a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up, I'm gonna sing a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up! When will I get there? How will I know? Once I get old will you still recognize me? I might be the president, or drive a racing car. I'll conduct an orchestra, or maybe be a movie star. I might paint a masterpiece. The best you'd ever see. I'll invent a robot that takes a bath instead of me. When I grow up, I'm gonna sing a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up, I'm gonna sing a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up! When will I get there? How will I know? Once I get old will you still recognize me? I might climb a mountain, or ride a curvy road. I'll design a bike that flies when you reveal the magic code! I'll travel nearly everywhere just like a grown-up would. I might explore so far away I'll have to leave my neighborhood! When I grow up, I'm gonna sing a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up, I'm gonna sing a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up! ! When will I get there? How will I know? Once I get old will you still recognize me? When I grow up, I'm gonna write a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up, I'm gonna write a song. When I grow up, you'll wanna sing along…When I grow up!

WHY (MUST I GO TO BED)?
(Stellpflug/Allen) Why must I go to bed? Why can't I play instead? So many things to do. Did I mention that I love you…Said I could watch T.V. Come play a game with me. Oh, how the hours go by. You're just teasin', there's no reason…Why I can't stay up late. Sure wish you'd change my fate. So many things to see. Think of all the ways you love me. Why must I go to bed? Why can't I play instead? So many things to do. Did I mention that I love you…

NIGHTLITE (Stellpflug/Allen) Mommy tucked me in and said goodnight. Daddy said, "Don't let the bed bugs bite." The light went off they turned to go. And then my little voice said, "No, no!" Star light, star bright, Turn my nightlite on! Shadows on the wall are watching me. I just heard noise - what can it be? Heart is beatin' fast, and in my head. Wish I didn't hear the monsters under my bed! Star light, star bright Turn my nightlite on! La la la - take away my fear, La la la - 'cause it's dark in here! La la la - shut my eyes real tight. La la la - will I dream tonight? I'm not scared of anything at all. I'll just sing this song until I fall asleep.Star light, star bright. Turn my nightlite, Star light, star bright. Turn my nightlite, Star light, star bright. Turn my night light on!
