Ease In

Ease in, move slow
There's nowhere you have to go (x2)
Ease in, move slow
There's a whole world for you to know
Ease in, move slow
The flowers and the trees and you will grow
The love around you
Doesn't look like a certain way
But the seed in the earth
Takes the wind and the water and the sun any way they come
And moves in the most beautiful shapes, the most beautiful shapes
Never does she ask from why and where it comes
There is life everywhere in the roots where love is from
(ease in, move slow chorus)
The love around you
Doesn't look like a certain way
But love has surely found you
From the east coast to the midwest
The candles light your way (repeat)

Nipple Confusion
01:32
|

|
I don't know where I put my mouth
I was looking for milk and I have to shout
singin milk or bounce, could I get an ounce?
But I can't find my way, no I can't find my way
Singing nipple confusion, nipple confusion, nipple confusion (x2)
Is it my mama's, it my papa's, is it my margot's, is it my dogs? (x2)
Singing nipple confusion, nipple confusion, nipple confusion (x2)
Wondering how, wondering why?
All I can do is try
Wondering how, wondering why?
All I can do is cry
Singing nipple confusion, nipple confusion, nipple confusion (x2)

You got one leg warmer
You got one leg warmer
You got one leg warmer
And the other leg is bare
X2
But you don't care,
No you don't care
You got one leg warmer
And the other leg is bare
You don't care
You don't care
You got one leg warmer
And you're a bear RAWR
You got two teeth
You got two teeth
You got two teeth
and the rest of your mouth is bare (x2)
But you don’t care
no you don’t care
You got two teeth and the rest of your mouth is bare
But you don’t care
no you don’t care
you got two teeth, and you bite me like a bear
You got three farts
you got three farts
you got three farts that you’re happy to share
you got three farts
you got three farts
you got three farts and the first is just a scare
but you don’t care
no you don’t care
you got three farts and the second is just air
you don’t care
no you don’t care
you got three farts and the third will come to bear!
you got four cheeks,
you got four cheeks,
you got four cheeks and all of them are bare (x2)
but you don’t care, no you don’t care
you got four cheeks and all of them are bare
you don’t care, no you don’t care, you got four cheeks and all of them are bare
you got five parents
got five parents
got five parents who never brush their hair (x2)
but you don’t care, no you don’t care
you got five parents, just as long as they are there
but you don’t care, no you don’t care
you got five parents and your head is bare
you got seven days
of the week
you got seven days
and you often sleep (x2)
but you don’t care, no you don’t care
you got seven days
and one is shabbat!
you don’t care, no you don’t care
you got seven days
and you hibernate like a bear
you got all the diapers
all the diapers
all the diapers that you never wear (x2)
but you don’t care,
but you don’t care,
you got all the diapers and you poop into the air
you don’t care, no you don’t care
you got all the diapers and your butt is bare!

Milk or Bounce
02:16

A few things in life are important to me
I'm gonna tell you how it needs to be
I like to sleep and I like to feed
And if that doesn't happen, you'll hear from me...
Milk or bounce!

You Can Still Cry
03:10
|
|||
|
It’s not so bad
To put something over your head
It’s not so bad
To put your arms through your sleeves
It’s not so bad
To put on your bear suit
So you can go out and play
But you can still cry
Yeah, you can still cry
You can still cry
When we put on your clothes
It’s not so bad
To be strapped in your seat
We’ll sing you songs
And feed you boiled beets
It’s not so bad
To be in a car to meet your friends and see the world
But you can still cry
Yeah, you can still cry
You can still cry
When you are buckled in
It’s not so bad
When we put on your sunscreen
It’s not so bad
If it makes you scream
(Just some face, legs, arm, cream)
it’s pretty sad
We broke the ozone so you
Need protection from those sun beams
But you can still cry
Yeah, you can still cry
You can still cry
When we lotion you up
Every feeling you have, baby
You can tell it like it is
This world is full injustice, baby
We need your voice loud and clear
When we take your toothbrush away
Or your mama’s not near
You can scream, shake, laugh, shout, baby
Our love will always be here
And you can still cry
Yeah, you can still cry
You can still cry
When we won’t share their apple with you
But you can still cry
Yeah, you can still cry
You can still cry
When we won’t let you touch your poo
Whatever other things we do

No One Just Like You
01:09

There's no one just like you
There's no one just like you
There's no one just like me,
there's no one just like me
But I can still be sad, and I can still be mad
And I can still be jealous,
and I can still be mad
(Parts over each other)
So if you feel scared that someone's gonna leave,
remember you're the only you that could ever be!

The Butterfly Song

I feel sad for the butterflies
where do they go when it storms?
Yeah I feel sad for the butterflies
where do they go when it storms?
(with their delicate wings when the rain comes down)
Yeah I feel sad for the butterflies,
where do they go when it storms?
(when the rain comes down on their delicate wings)
Do they find shelter in a tree?
I hope they have some place to be
I hope I see their colors tomorrow
when the sun comes out
They can't go back in their cocoon
maybe they'll fly o'er the rain clouds, and up to the moon
would they turn around, if they hurt this tune?
I feel sad for the butterflies
where do they go when it storms?
Yeah I feel sad for the butterflies
where do they go when it storms?
(with their delicate wings when the rain comes down)
And butterflies are so free, they don't know borders
And butterflies are so free, they just know beauty (x2)

You can splash the water
You can splash the water
You can splash the water with your hands
You can kick the water
You can kick the water
You can kick the water with your feet
