Believe in me and I will glimmer And when I prance| I`ll always shimmer
A whirlwind of magic lifts me up to the sky And then when I get there my wings let me fly.

If a black cat happens to cross the street It could be mean| but this one`s sweet!

The top of the tree is where I`ll be I can see you but you can`t see me
The top of the tree is where I`ll be I can see you but you can`t see me
On my tippy toes | I run real fast. If I`m in a race I`ll never come last
Valentine`s kisses| I`ll give them to you I`d love to be friends| with you I`ll be true
I have pink eyes and spots of pink Can we be friends? What do you think
My good friend Santa says the time is near| So Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
I fly the sleigh very fast| Holiday time is such a blast !

Most exciting 2 minutes you`ll ever see When you`re watching the Kentucky Derby Which horses will win| or place| or show At the end of the race| I`ll sure let you know !
Some animals jump| walk| or run I get to do something more fun Hopping aroud| all just to find Someone like you that`s really kind !
Let`s hang out| just you and me And we`ll relax under the tree Sitting| munching on bamboo Don`t worry| I`ve got some for you !
No one knows better than me Just how to find the perfect tree You can help and when we`re done We`ll go home for holiday fun !

Here and there| then to and fro Over hill and dale I`ll go Happily hopping `til I find A friend like you who`s sweet and kind !
It seems that whatever I do This place is filthy; sad| but true No matter how hard I might try This place is simply a pig sty !
Teacher| you`re better than the rest You rock ! You really are the best With all your guidance and concern You`ve taught me that it`s fun to learn !
Just put those runs up on the board Cheers and high fives because you scored And now the fans will shout| `Hey| hey!` You`ve helped us win the game today !
Feel under the weather today ? I`ll help chase your blues away A smile`s the best medicine| it`s true And that`s my get well wish to you !
If you just take a look at me My feelings are easy to see It is simple| plain and true So obvious that I LOVE YOU !

Something`s strange up in that tree Two bright eyes looking back at me Then you`ll hear a playful| `WHOO` As if to say| `Hey| I see you` !
Hopping through the flower bed I think I see a friend ahead Maybe I`ll stop and chat awhile `Cause meeting new friends makes me smile !
