Two Heads are Better
 
The best of me. . . The best of you
Put them together and we can do. CAN DO!
It sometimes surprises you
Two heads are better than one
The best of me: The best of you
I’d like to offer to help you. I do
Want to encourage you
Two heads are better than one
Working together is fun
 
Is there anything I can do?
Anything I can offer you?
I am fully convinced it’s true
Two heads are better than one
Working together is fun
 
The best of me. . .the best of you
I’d come running to your rescue, I do
Promise to see you through
Two heads are better than one
Working together is fun
Two Heads are Better than One

My New Friend

I came here all on my own
I don’t like feeling alone
I need somebody who’ll say
We’re glad you stopped by today
 
Do you want to be My New Friend?
 
I don’t fit in here, I shout
I don’t like feeling left out
Somebody please let me in!
I really do need a friend
 
Chorus
Chorus
 
You understand it, don’t you?
I don’t like feeling so ‘new’
I’m sure I could tell you why]
You ought to give me a try

My Family
 
My family
Is a source of pride for me
My Family
We are growing, as you can see
My Family
Is a place where I belong
Having a family
Will help me learn to be strong
 
I live in a house that’s filled with
Some very good friends of mine
I’m counting on them for certain
When I’m in a bind
 
Chorus
 
I wouldn’t say they were perfect
They’re human and just like me
But we’re hanging together because
We are family
 
Chorus

Go Out and Play
 
I don’t want to go out and play
But my Mom says I have to
I suppose it is best that way
But I don’t want to go out and play
 
I heard her telling Mrs. Stone next door
That she doesn’t want to have to yell anymore
That was why she said to me
Play in the yard till
A quarter till three
 
Chorus
 
I could have thought of this myself later
And my willingness to go would be
Much greater
Though I’m really not ready
She didn’t leave the decision to me

My Apology
 
I don’t know how I let this happen
But I can learn from my mistakes
And I will try to make it up to you
No matter how much time it takes
 
So this is My Apology
I offer you
And if you wouldn’t forgive me
I wouldn’t know what to do
 
I don’t know how I let this happen
Can you forgive me if I try
Never to let this kind of thing come up
From now until the day I die
 
So this is My Apology
I offer you
And if you wouldn’t forgive me
I wouldn’t know what to do
This is My Apology
I’m offering
I must be sure you know that I’m
Sorry for everything
 
All that I can say
Is you can expect to see a change in me
One making me into a better friend for you
 
Verse 1
Full Chorus

That’s What I Like About You
 
You don’t laugh when I’m acting foolish
You don’t make fun of me
You’re just there, but then
You have always been
I hope you’ll always be
That’s What I Like About You
I like the things you don’t do
 
You don’t talk when I need the silence
You know what not to say
You just smile at me
That means ‘Don’t worry’
You’ve always been that way
That’s what I like about you
I like the things you don’t do
 
Some of the things you don’t do
Are my favorite things about you
You could be famous for it
And you would be
If it were my decision
If you asked me
 
Some of the things you don’t do
Are my favorite things about you
I know it sounds peculiar to speak of
But it’s the things you don’t do
That I love
 
That’s What I Like About You
I like the things you don’t do
 
When it’s dark and the night is stormy
You don’t try to scare me
You don’t run away and you always say
How great morning will be
That’s What I Like About You
I like the things you don’t do
 
Chorus

Pack Up and Move
 
All I want to do is Pack Up and Move
Out of this body of mine
Look into the mirror, see it smile
But you give the thing an inch
It’ll take a mile
 
All I want to do is Pack Up and Move
Out of this body of mine
Some days I’ll be lucky, it’s good as gold
Then for no particular reason
It’s out of control
 
Sitting when it should be jogging
Talking when it should be still
I would like to think I’m taking it
But I wonder if I ever will
 
Chorus
 
Daydream a moment and it’s
Chewing on its nails again
Acting like it could stop anytime
But it never tells you when
 
Ravaging the ice box one more time
When it’s had enough to eat
How can I excuse this conduct?
You know they say revenge is sweet
 
Chorus
 
I should take a leave of absence
I could have some peace that way
I would really do it, too, but
I don’t have another place to stay

How Does a Family Grow?
 
 
What does it take to make a family?
A family?
Like the ones we’ve seen on TV
Oh! I want to know
How Does A Family Grow?
 
I take lots of patience and lots of love
That’s what good families are made of
Kindness gentleness by the ton
And lots of laughter for everyone
 
What does it take to make a family?
A family?
Like the ones we’ve seen on TV
Oh! I want to know
How does a family grow?
 
It takes looking out for the younger ones
And being there when the neighborhood bully comes
Overlooking each others flaws
And knowing you belong ‘just because’
 
Chorus
