Hey, do you know about the U.S.A.?
Do you know about the government?
Can you tell me about the Constitution?
Hey, learn about the U.S.A.

<wait> <wait> In 1787 I'm told
Our founding fathers did agree
To write a list of principles
For keepin' people free.

The U.S.A. was just startin' out.
A whole brand-new country.
And so our people spelled it out
The things that we should be.

We the people,
In order to form a more perfect union,
Establish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
Provide for the common defense,
Promote the general welfare and and
Secure the blessings of liberty
To ourselves and our posterity
Do ordain and establish this Constitution

Twist & Shout is the Closing # no tag

Chorus
Saturday night and the moon is out
I wanna head on over
to the Twist and Shout
Find a two-step partner
and a Cajun beat
When it lifts me up
I'm gonna find my feet
Out in the middle of a big dance floor
When I hear that fiddle, wanna beg for more
Wanna dance to a band
from a-Lou'sian' tonight

Well I never have wandered down to New Orleans Never have drifted down a bayou stream
But I heard that music on the radio
And I swore some day I was gonna go 

Down to Highway 10, past the Lafayette There's the Baton Rouge and I won't forget To send you a card with my regrets
'Cause I'm never gonna come back home 

Chorus

They got a alligator stew and a crawfish pie
A Gulf storm blowin' into town tonight
Livin' on the Delta's quite a show
They got hurricane parties every time it blows But here up north it's a cold, cold rain 

And there ain't no cure for my blues today
Except when the paper says "Beausoleil is a-coming into town" Baby let's go down 

Chorus

Bring your mama, bring your papa, bring your sister, too They got lots of music and lots of room
When they play you a waltz from a-1910
You gonna feel a little bit young again 

Well you learned to dance with your rock'n'roll You learned to swing with a do-si-do
But you learn to love at the fais-so-do
When you hear a little Jolie Blon 

Chorus

Kindergarten - Stuck Like Glue

Absolutely no one who knows me better
No one that can make me feel so good
How did we stay so long together

When everybody
Everybody said we never would
And just when I
I start to think they're right
That love has died

There you go making my heart beat again
Heart beat again, heart beat again
There you go making me feel like a kid
Won't you do it and do it one time,
There you go pulling me right back in
Right back in, right back in
And I know I'm never letting this go

I'm stuck on you
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Stuck like glue
You and me baby
We're stuck like glue

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Stuck like glue
You and me baby
We're stuck like glue

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh
Stuck like glue
You and me baby
We're stuck like glue

First Grade- Good Mood

You make me dance, yeah you do
You got my heart beatin' rhythms when you move
Don't need no plans, feeling loose
Like there's a rainbow of magic next to you

When it's good, when it's bad, yeah, you got me
Not alone in this town 'cause you make me feel
Anytime that I call, you'll be ready
Anytime, anytime

And when I turn around, I see you there
You got a way to make a problem disappear
Up to the clouds, I'm spinning 'round
And now you know why

'Cause no one in this world can make me feel loved
In the way that you do now
No, no one in this world can make me come down
When I'm in this so good, good mood now

Woo-hoo (ooh) Woo-hoo (ooh). Woo-hoo (ooh)
Good mood

2nd Grade - Jump Right In - Not Used - Combine next song

Sun and wind, sing again not a lullaby,

Baby, powder beach under my feet has got me rolling
And the breeze through crackling leaves like a daytime campfire burning And the ship is off to sea, and the wake it is a churning
As the southern wind sings again an island lullaby

You can jump right in
Let the music pull you in
You can jump right in
Oh, and lose yourself again
As the southern wind sings again an island lullaby

You can jump right in
Let the music pull you in
You can jump right in
Oh, and lose yourself again
As the southern wind sings again an island lullaby

2nd & 3rd Grade - (together) Make Some Noise!

I'm not sure just what you heard
But I know a simple trick
You put both hands up clap them above
Do it do it just like this
I think I might have got the dancing sickness

Never ever had a fever like this
But where's the fun of being normal anywhere Ok 5 4 3 2 1
I feel like turning it up
Breaking it down
Jump on my feet don't touch the ground
You got a voice you got a choice
Come on get loud let's make some noise
Sing it like
Ooh ooh
This is the time it's you and I
Let's get lalalala loud
Make some noise

Scream out loud twist twist and shout

Do whatever you want to

And if you're stuck in the middle
Boogie just a little
I bet you won't feel so blue
No tell me do you feel the speakers pumping

I ain't stopping till the whole room shouting It's ok

to get crazy now we're eh eh eh

Hey 5 4 3 2 1
I feel like turning it up
Breaking it down
Jump on my feet don't touch the ground

You got a voice you got a choice
Come on get loud let's make some noise

Sing it like
Oh oh
This is the time it's you and I
Let's get lalalala loud
Make some noise!

Come on make some noise! Whoo.
