Build It High

We’ve got a problem,
We can work it out
Let’s get together,
That’s what it’s all about
Got to build it, build it high
Got to build it, build it high

We’ve got a problem,
We can work it out
Let’s get together,
That’s what it’s all about
Got to build it,build it high
Got to build it, build it high

Don’t give in because you fail your first attempt
Don’t start shouting, what’s the point in argument?
Let’s stand united, take the challenge in our stride
Just remember that we’re on the same side

We’ve got a problem,
We can work it out
Let’s get together,
That’s what it’s all about
Got to build it, build it high
Got to build it, build it high

Don’t start blaming someone else when things go wrong
That’s wasting precious time, and we don’t have too long
No use in panic when the situation’s grim
Trust in teamwork and let the game begin

We’ve got a problem,
We can work it out
Let’s get together,
That’s what it’s all about
Got to build it, build it high
Got to build it, build it high,

Build it high,
Build it high,
Build it high!

Bugs, bugs, bugs and butterflies
Bugs and butterflies ev’rywhere.
I spy bugs and butterflies,
On the ground and in the air.

1.
They all know the time of year
When nicer weather’s finally here.
They all know to say hello,
Because it’s spring again.

Bugs, bugs, bugs and butterflies
Bugs and butterflies ev’rywhere.
I spy bugs and butterflies,
On the ground and in the air.

2.
Some that creep and some that crawl,
And mostly they are ever so small.
They are happy to be here
Because it’s spring again.

Bugs, bugs, bugs and butterflies
Bugs and butterflies ev’rywhere.
I spy bugs and butterflies,
On the ground and in the air.

3.
Some that fly and buzz around
And some that like to stay on the ground.
They’re all bust as can be
Because it’s spring again.

Bugs, bugs, bugs and butterflies
Bugs and butterflies ev’rywhere.
I spy bugs and butterflies,
On the ground and in the air.

Monday – we’d have fun day,
Tuesday – hear the news day,
Wednesday – see my friends day, |
Halfway through the week.

Thursday – ‘ums’ and ‘ers’ day,
Friday – punch the sky day,
Saturday – it won’t matter day,
Nearly through the week.

When Sunday comes
We could have a little rest for one day.
The work is done
And the day is free.
Take time to ponder on all the things
We’ve said and done day,
And thank good-ness for another week!

Sing me on a journey;
Sing soft when the warm winds blow.
Sing me on a journey;
I face the sun and my eyes are closed.

Sing me on a journey;
I sing out on the mountains high.
Sing me on a journey;
Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry.

So the journey goes by, and I’m still singing.
I laugh and I cry, and I’m still singing.
I can fall, I can fly, and I’m still singing.
Say hello or goodbye, and I’m still singing. mm mm

1.
We all need a helping hand to lift us when we fall.
To hear a kind, supportive voice
When we’re sad and feeling small.
To see a friend beside us can make us feel like new,
Cos the gift of love can help us all pull through.

Will you spread a little bit of sunshine when it’s grey?
Spread a little bit of sunshine,
And drive the blues away.
Generate some laughter and fun along the way,
Will you spread a little bit of sunshine when it’s grey and brighten up a day?
Brighten up a day, brighten up a day,
Brighten up a day.

2.
Share a smile with a friend and see their day improve.
A little generosity but its impact can be huge.
A neighbourly “good morning”,
An easy-going “hi”,
It’s the gift of love that helps us all get by.

Will you spread a little bit of sunshine when it’s grey?
Spread a little bit of sunshine,
And drive the blues away.

Generate some laughter and fun along the way,
Will you spread a little bit of sunshine when it’s grey and brighten up a day?

Brighten up a day, brighten up a day.
Brighten up a day, brighten up a day.

Brighten up a day, brighten up a day.
Brighten up a day, brighten up a day.

(Solo 1o)

I could be the smartest,
Run the very fastest,
I could win a trophy for the school.
I could have the ‘latest’,
Feel like I’m the greatest,
I could be the favourite of them all.

CHORUS (All)
But if I’ve not got any love in my heart,
Then nothing else will matter much at all, at all.

I’m good at this,

We get along from day to day,
living in harmony.

Harmony,

We get along from day to day,
living in harmony.

Harmony,
Living in harmony.

Put your best smile on your face.
Stand up tall, move into space.
Ev’rybody touch their nose and then their toes
And stretch up to the sky.
Now we’re gonna stamp our feet, click to the beat
Then reach our arms up high.

It’s gonna be a great, great day.
It’s gonna be a great, great day.
I’m bursting with amazing energy.
I’m gonna try my very best.
I’m gonna try my very best.
I’m bursting with amazing energy.

Shrug your shoulders up and down.
Clap your hands and turn around.
Now we’re going to say good morning to our neighbour,
Turn and shake their hand.
Ev’rybody give the thumbs up, A-O.K.
That this day will be grand.

It’s gonna be a great, great day.
It’s gonna be a great, great day.
I’m bursting with amazing energy.
I’m gonna try my very best.

I once saw an elephant,
Ooh, but he was elegant.
Dressed in his best,
With a big bow-tie.

Going hammer, hammer, hammer,
And the audience all went ‘Ooh!’

You are quite amazing when you’re blazing every day.
Shining on the world, we miss your golden rays.

So shine, shine, shine on the land.
Shine, shine, shine if you can.
You can make your flames burn again.

You are still up in the sky, you’re floating in the gloom.
And if we sing well, then you may help us soon.

So shine, shine, shine on the land.
Shine, shine, shine if you can.
You can make your flames burn again.

Can you find that spark again?
We know it must be there.
Can you light it up and shine down everywhere?

So shine, shine, shine on the land.
Shine, shine, shine if you can.
You can make your flames burn again.

Follow your heart and let it guide you.
Look to the stars, let them inspire you.
Open your mind and see the world outside.
Play it safe, well they’re mistaken,
Nobody knows the path not taken.
Better to try and hold on for the ride.

Dream big, dream big.
Dream big, dream big.
‘Cos you just never know
If you give it a go
And dream big.

2.

Learn to be you in all your glory,
Nobody else, it’s not their story.
Don’t let them tell you who you ought to be.
Better that you fail and learn from failing.
No one ever said it would be plain sailing.
Little in life comes with a guarantee.

Dream big, dream big.
Dream big, dream big.
‘Cos you just never know
If you give it a go
And dream big

Dream big, dream big.
Dream big, dream big.
If you shoot for the stars,
Then you’re gonna go far.
If you’re willing to dare,
Then you’re half the way there,
‘Cos you just never know
If you give it a go
And dream big.

1.
We’re back and we are older,
We’re stronger and we’ve grown.
We’re back and we are bolder,
No longer on our own.

And we are moving all the time.
And we are proving that we’re fine,
And we are choosing to be kind,
We are back!

2.
We’re back and we are brighter,
We’re shining like the sun.
We’re back and we are lighter,
To share with everyone.

And we are moving all the time.
And we are proving that we’re fine,
And we are choosing to be kind,
We are back!

We’ll face the future,
As we go we will stand.
Together we are strong,
We walk hand in hand, hand in hand.

And we are moving all the time,
And we are proving that we’re fine,
And we are choosing to be kind.

And we are moving all the time,
And we are proving that we’re fine,
