sing along with me

Give a little time for the child within you,
dont be afraid to be young and free.
Undo the locks and throw away the keys
and take off your shoes and socks, and run you.
La, la, la...

Give a little time for the child within you,
dont be afraid to be young and free.
Undo the locks and throw away the keys
and take off your shoes and socks, and run you.
La, la, la...

Run through the meadow and scare up the milking cows
Run down the beach kicking clouds of sand
Walk a windy weather day, feel your face blow away
Stop and listen: Love you.

Roll like a circus clown, put away your circus frown
Ride on a roller coaster upside down
Waltzing Matilda, Carey loves a kinkatchoo
Joey catch a kangaroo, hug you.

Dandylion, milkweed, silky on a sunny sky
Reach out and hitch a ride and float on by
Balloons down below catching colors of the rainbow
red, blue and yellow-green: I love you.

Bicycles, tricycles, ice cream candy
Lollypops, popsicles, licorice sticks
Solomon Grundy, Raggedy Andy
Tweedledum and Tweedledee, home free.

Cowboys and Indians, puppydogs and sandpails
Beachballs and baseballs and basketballs, too.
I love forget-me-nots, fluffernutters, sugarpops
I'll hug you and kiss you and love you
La, la, la... Love you.

Oh to be that tra-la-la free! Well, I hope you are, anyway, ‘cause it’s a special day! :-D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MS. MOOD!

(Don’t worry, I’m done embarrassing birthday peeps over at my site.)

Shadow said...

Oh, yeah...birthday? Yay! I never remember birthdays, but I remember signs, so at least I'm not more than a month out. ;-)

It's good to see you back, at least for a while. :-)

Devil Mood said...

MissAlister: hehe thank you!

Shadow: Good! Let's all sing then.

Catarina: Obrigada!

Rositta: Oh I'm glad I made you smile. Happy holidays to you and all.

Kimananda: I know what you mean. It's also easier for me to remember signs, especially if the birthdays are from the 20th on...I get them all mixed. That's why I keep forgetting yours :(

I've never actually heard this song all the way through...I've only heard it in parts on TV commercials...I love the lyrics!

Devil Mood said...

Niall, you got me there. I heard it in a car advert myself and decided to search for it.
