Bad Dog (Andrew & Polly) Written by Andrew Barkan & Polly Hall Hello, have we met before? I'm not sure, so let me introduce myself. I am your two-eared, one-nosed, four-legged friend and I love to wag my tail. I may appear to really like you and I really, really do! But you've got something in your hand, my friend - and it makes me go maroo! I'm gonna get it, I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it as soon as you forget it! I'll sit and shake then roll over - just until you fork it over - My eyes are all full of lies 'Cause I'm b-b-b-b-b-b-b-BAD DOG! What's that you've got up there? I see you, and it's just about dinnertime. If it's cheese, bread, or maybe butter Then there's a plan I must devise. When you step back from the counter to go see who is at the door, I'll grab all I can and eat it! And then I'll be back for some more… I'm gonna get it, I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it as soon as you forget it! You may have made your mind up - You think I'm a sweet and a kind pup (But there's more to me than all that stuff) 'Cause I'm b-b-b-b-b-b-b-BAD DOG! When you take the blankets off the bed, I know there's something going on. It must be time to do the laundry, and for me to do something wrong. You seem to be so busy, folding all your new clean clothes! But when you least expect it… I'll unfold them with my nose! I'm gonna get it, I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it as soon as you forget it! I'm gonna jump on your laundry! I'll put your clean clothes in a quandary! Do you know Michel Gondry? 'Cause I'm b-b-b-b-b-b-b-BAD DOG! I went and got it, I went and got it I went and got it as soon as you forgot it - I did my tricks and I tricked you, You tried to win but I licked you! We can be friends if you have food (I don't even care if it's pre-chewed) 'Cause I'm b-b-b-b-b-b-b-BAD DOG!

Let's go to… the zoo! The beach is as cool as can be - There's water, sand, you and me. The sun is shining on the deep blue sea - Let's go to… Awwww... Let's go to the beach! Let's go to the beach! Let's beat the heat and eat a peach! Let's go to… the zoo! Sometimes we run out of things Like milk and yogurt and ball bearings. The spot that's got these things and more - Let's go to… Awwww... Let's go to the store! Let's go to the store! Let's make a list and get out the door! Let's go to… the store! We had the craziest day I'm pooped - that's all I can say. Find a nice place for me to lay - Let's go to… Let's go to sleep... Let's go to sleep... Let's count lots of sheep... Let's go to… zzzzzzzz.

When You're a Dog (Andrew & Polly) Written by Andrew Barkan and Polly Hall Winner of the 2012 Joe Raposo Children's Music Award from The ASCAP Foundation What do you do when you're a dog? When every day is super fun? Will you go to the beach? Will you bark up a tree? What do you do when you're a dog? What do you do when you're a dog? Soak up a sunny afternoon? Sidewalk sniffing, some fetching and frisbee catching - I'm a dog - you're a dog - I'm a dog! And you know what I like most in the world Is someone who'll take me outside - We'll walk around and we'll see what we see… Bet you I'll find me a squirrel up a tree! Because… That's what you do when you're a dog I can't wait to meet you at the door There's to worry about, only to hurry about It's time to play so what do you say? Let's be dogs, let's be dogs, let's be dogs!

Friendship (Andrew & Polly) Written by Cole Porter If you're ever in a jam, here I am If you're ever in a mess, S.O.S If you ever feel so happy you land in jail I'm your bail It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blend ship When other friendships have been forgot Ours will still be hot A-lottle-dottle-dottle-dig-dig-dig And if you're ever down a well, ring my bell And if you're ever up a tree just phone to me A-yes-sir-ee If you ever loose your teeth and you're out to dine, borrow mine It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blend ship When other friendships have been forgate Gate? Ours will still be great A-lottle-dottle-dottle-chuck-chuck-chuck If they ever black your eyes, put me wise If they ever cook your goose, turn me loose And if they ever put a bullet through your brain I'll complain It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blend ship When other friendships have been forgit Ours will still be it A-lottle-dottle-dottle-hep-hep-hep If you ever loose your mind, I'll be kind And if you ever loose your shirt, I'll be hurt If you're ever in a mill and get sawed in half I won't laugh It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blend ship When other friendships are up the crick Ours will still be slick A-lottle-dottle-dottle-woof-woof-woof, hep-hep-hep A-chuck-chuck-chuck, a-dig-dig-dig Good evening friends

Waiting (Andrew & Polly) Written by Andrew Barkan & Polly Hall I’m waiting for the clouds to go home I’m waiting for the sun to shine The tip-toe of the rain Upon the window-paine, it’s almost time I wait to put my socks and shoes on I’m waiting very patiently The tick-tock of the clock, I’m waiting for a walk outside… And then I wait at the corner, I wait for the light to change When I am waiting for something, I like to play a game When I am waiting for mommy, or waiting for a friend I play a game while I’m waiting, while I wait I count to ten. I count 1,2,3, 4, 56789 10 I count 12345678910 Yes I 12345678910 I’m counting all the coins in my pocket I’m counting all the leaves and trees I’m counting all the stars and funny looking cars as they go by It might be fun while I’m waiting I’ll count everything I see Sometimes it’s hard while I’m waiting But that’s just fine with me Cause I’ll count 12345678910 I’ll count 12345678910 We’ll count 12345678910 You count 12345678910

Friend Like You - The Spaghetti Song (Andrew & Polly) Written by Andrew Barkan and Polly Hall Sometimes I like to be all alone. I don't wanna talk on the phone - just want to be by myself. I want to laugh and read and climb a tree - just lil' ol' me - Maybe have a day dream, or sing a song. But it's fun, fun to play games... And it's fun to play pretend... And there's nothing better than sharing an ice cream sundae… And for that, you need a friend. That's why - It's so nice to have a friend like you! 'Cause when I'm feeling so very blue, I know I can call you up and you'll say - "Put on a smile, and have a good day!" It's so nice to have a friend like you! 'Cause when I'm feeling so very blue, I know I can call you up and you'll say - "Put on a smile, and have a good day!" And I will share my spaghetti, I'll share it with you And we can take a walk to somewhere new And we can jump up and down, we'll jump all around 'Cause it's nice to have a friend like you. We can take a trip to outer space! We can have a really short, fast race! And if we're tired, we'll take a nap! We can paint and play and sing all day until it's dinner time - Yeah, we'll have a great time - even if we have a fight! ('Cause I'll say I'm sorry, and I'll say I'm sorry too) 'Cause it's fun, fun to play games... And it's fun to play pretend... And there's nothing better than sharing an ice cream sundae… Andrew for that, you need a friend. That's why - It's so nice to have a friend like you! 'Cause when I'm feeling so very blue, I know I can call you up and you'll say - "Put on a smile, and have a good day!" It's so nice to have a friend like you! 'Cause when I'm feeling so very blue, I know I can call you up and you'll say - "Put on a smile, and have a good day!" And I will share my spaghetti, I'll share it with you And we can take a walk to somewhere new And we can jump up and down, we'll jump all around 'Cause it's nice to have a friend like you.
