Jungle Rumble
Hey (Name)
Can you hear what I hear?
Let’s go see what’s rumbling in the jungleCome with me (Name), deep into the trees
To the magical world of the animals
The plants, birds and the bees(Name) what’s that above your head
Swinging from vine to vine
It’s our old friend the monkey
And he’s having a good old timeSwing it
Come on and make some monkey sounds
Now roar like a tiger

You’ll really like her
She’s the coolest cat in the land
So put some ants in your pants, (Name) let’s dance
Take his rolling rock’n’rolling bandThere’s a rumbling in the jungle
And it’s coming from the jungle band
The monkeys are beating on the drums
And the snakes make the cymbal soundHippos play the big fat bass
And the tigers play the horns
The lion is singing his mighty song
And he’s asking you to sing alongHey (Name), look there’s Heavy the Hippo
Splashing into that pool
Man that guy can play the bass
He’s real coolNow Heavy the Hippo, he likes to let go
By wallowing in the mud
He rolls around and makes a sound
Like a really big hippo shouldSo (Name), let’s watch them splash and play
Like we do in the swimming pool
But Heavy the Hippo, he lives in there
It’s even where he goes to schoolHey (Name), watch out, what’s that slithering
Around your feet?
Oh, it’s okay, it’s Sammy the Snake
Another buddy for you to meetNow Sammy the Snake
Likes to slither and slide
She makes a lovely hissing sound
So (Name) let’s just wiggle with her
And hiss really really loudThere’s a rumbling in the jungle
And it’s coming from the jungle band
The monkeys are beating on the drums
And the snakes make the cymbal soundsThe Hippos play the big fat bass
The Tigers play the horns
The Lion is singing his mighty song
And he’s asking you to sing alongHere’s the Lion, hey (Name)

Spaceman’s Lullaby
All the clouds are made of pillows
So the Spaceman said
From the moon they look so fluffy
A place to rest my headI need to go to sleep
Said the tired little spaceman
Standing on the moon
How can I get to those lovely fluffy pillows
Please let me get there soon(Name) looked up and saw the tired spaceman
Way up on the moon
(Name) sang out to the little spaceman
Don’t worry I will get you home soonGrab onto a star, cried (Name) to the Spaceman
We’ll take you to your bed
We’ll drop you off on the fluffy wuffy pillows
Then you can rest your headThe tiny tired spaceman
Hopped onto a fast star
And flew down to the cloud
“Thank you (Name)” whispered the little spaceman
As he drifted off without another soundNow up amongst the fluffy little pillows
The clouds up in the sky
There’s a peaceful sleeping little spaceman
Snoozing as the stars sail byAll the clouds are made of pillows
Night night (Name)...
So the spaceman said
From the moon they look so fluffy
A place to rest my head
