Enjoy the lyrics to this new, classic rock song. Music by The Mod-est Lads.

Well she's so clean and cool, she could be in The Beatles.
Yeah, she walks and talks so cool, she could be in The Beatles.
She'll be playing those cool guitars, through cool Vox amplifiers,
and singing along with Moe, and Timmy, and Phil

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Wait, wait, wait a minute. Who's that then?

Well, this Moe and Timmy and Phil, who's that?

Yeah, she's gonna be a paperback writer

Six little ducks [rocking music by guest artist, Rockosaurus Rex]


Enjoy the lyrics to this rocking nursery rhyme song. Music by Rockosaurus Rex.

Six little ducks that I once knew,
Fat ones, skinny ones, fair ones, too.
But the one little duck with the feather on his back,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.

Down to the river they would go,
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble, to and fro.
But the one little duck with the feather on his back,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.

Back from the river they would come
Wibble, wobble, wibble, wobble, ho, hum, hum.
But the one little duck with the feather on his back,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack.
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.

Into the water they would dive,
Over and under the other five.
But the one little duck with the feather on his back,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.

Home from the river they would go,
Wibble wobble, wibble wobble, ho hum hum.
But the one little duck with the feather on his back,
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.
Quack, quack, quack. Quack, quack, quack.
He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.

The Monkey and the Drum [Children's story from India by guest artist]


This great story was written by P. R. Ramachander,
a wonderful storyteller from Bangalore, India.

In the forest near Madras, there was a cute little monkey who could speak and sing. One day it was playing on a tree in a forest.

While jumping from one tree to another, a thorn stuck to its tail. It gave great pain to the monkey. So it went to the town. On its way, it met an uncle with a knife.

The monkey requested him to remove the thorn from its tail. That man agreed, so he tried to remove the thorn using his knife. Unfortunately, the tail got cut.

The monkey became very sad and angry. It told the man, "You have cut my tail with the knife. So you give me the knife. If you don't, I will pinch you."

Pillsbury Cookie Dough [yummy music by guest artist, Paul and Storm]


Lyrics to the delicious "Pillsbury Cookie Dough" song by Paul and Storm

It's four in the morning,
you sneak out of bed
and tiptoe down the stairs.

Go to the kitchen,
leave off the light…
the Pillsbury Cookie Dough is waiting there.

Yeah, you open the door,
take the tube in your hands,
get the scissors down from the shelf.

Peel back the label,
give it a squeeze…
you're gonna eat the whole thing all by yourself.

There's nothing better then a whole darn tube of cookie dough.
Go on and eat it all!

Don't slice it!
Don't cook it!
Don't serve it!
Don't share it!
Go on and eat it all!

Hide the wrapper at the bottom of the trash
and go back to bed filled with shame
and cookie dough
from Pillsbury.

Paul and Storm's music is humorous, satirical, and original.
No subject is sacred to this Lennon/McCartney comedy songwriting team.
("Pillsbury Cookie Dough" by Paul and Storm, © 2005)

This fun song was played on
C is for Cheetah Cheater playing with - cough cough -

Grizzly Bear [wild song by guest artist, All Girl Summer Fun Band]


Lyrics to wild "Grizzly Bear" song by All Girl Summer Fun Band

We all know that you can't always get what you want,
But if you know exactly what you want,
You can always go and tell Chris say, "Hey Chris,
will you buy me a grizzly bear, I really want a grizzly bear,
we could roll on the ground and I'd let him mess up my hair.
Or if not then a puppy dog, yeah I'd like a puppy dog,
we could run in the yard and I'd let him run like a dog."

We all know that you can't always do what you feel,
but if you know exactly how you feel,
you can always come and tell me say, "Hey Kim,
I'm kind of feeling like a grizzly bear.
Yeah, I feel like a grizzly bear,
I wanna roll on the ground and I want to mess up your hair.
Cause I'm feeling like a puppy dog, yeah I feel like a puppy dog,
I wanna run in the yard and I want to run like a dog."

I… I… I… I…

All Girl Summer Fun Band's music is sometimes sweet, sometimes spicy,

Princess [dreamy song by guest artist, Tripstar]


Lyrics to dreamy "Princess" song by tripstar

I'm just a princess in a science fiction world.
I don't know how to ride the satellite,
so I get hurt bloody hard,

I'm just a princess, learning how to fly.
I'm just a princess, learning how to fly.

But I know to tame those dragons,
watch out for my fire!
Watch out for my fire
'cause I can burn you out.
Burn you out.
'cause I can burn you out.
I can burn you out.

I'm just a princess in the science fiction world.
I don't know how to ride the satellite,
so I get hurt bloody hard.

I'm just a princess, learning how to fly.
I'm just a princess, learning how to fly.
I'm just a princess, learning how to fly.
I'm just a princess, learning how to fly.

I'm from your past.
I'm from the past.

Straight from the United Kingdom,
tripstar's dreamy music is a unique exploration of passion,
yearning, triphop, and electronica at its very best.
("Princess" by tripstar, © 2005)

This song was played on A is for American Alligator
meeting Walt Disney World's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
[classic, old time children's radio podcast: season 2, letter A]

Have fun singing and swaying,
