“IT’S MY JOB” Peri Stolic -LeadThe Kidney Brothers - backup (in parentheses)

VERSE 1 When your teeth chew up a sandwich, and you first begin to eat it, Your saliva helps to break it down and enzymes are secreted. (PEPTO) The food goes to your stomach for digestion, naturally.

(VERSE 1 Cont.)Small intestines take the good stuff out and send it on to me. (Small intestines take the good stuff out and send it on to her.)

“DON’T SKIP BREAKFAST” Sir Rebrum

VERSE 1 You skipped out on your cereal. You walked out on your waffle. You left your milk to curdle, and now you’re feeling awful. The reason’s very simple and it’s time you got the news. Every organ in your body has the breakfast skippin’ blues!

VERSE 2If you were on a spaceship that was zooming to the moon. And you didn’t fill your fuel tank, you’d have to be a loon. It doesn’t take an Einstein to know what will take place.The engine would stop running. You’d be stranded out in space!

CHORUSYou can skip on your left foot, or skip with your right. You can skip in the morning, or skip in the night. You can skip a stone on water, You can skip to my Lou You can skip a swinging jump rope, but whatever you do . . .DON’T SKIP BREAKFAST! DON’T SKIP BREAKFAST!

VERSE 3 You might think you’re saving time, if you miss your morning meal But your tummy’s gonna howl and your brain is gonna squeal. It’s an easy thing to learn. It’s a very simple rule. If you run out on breakfast, you’ll run out of fuel!

VERSE 4It’s the most important meal of the entire day. ‘Cause it keeps your brain a-thinkin’ and it helps your body play. And though I love my lunch and I dearly dig my dinner, Breakfast is the champion, the undisputed winner!

“M-U-S-C-L-E” Madame Muscle

VERSE 1When you were just a baby, and couldn’t even speak, You made your Mom and Daddy smile, with muscles in your cheeks. Your muscles helped you drink your milk and crawl across the floor. And then they helped you stand up tall and walk right out the door.

CHORUS Oh, M-U-S C-L-E There’s nothing else I’d rather be. Flexing is my specialty. M-U-S C-L-E

VERSE 2 Your muscles move your bones around. We flex and we relax. We help you move your fingers when you’re blowin’ on the sax. We help you throw a mighty pitch. We help you swing a bat. We help you eat your cereal. We help you pet your cat.

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGEWe help you hurry when you’re late for school We help you dive into a pool. We bend your body to and fro. We even bend your little toe!

VERSE 3So next time you are playing tag, or tying your shoe lace, Or whistling, or chewing, with the muscles in your face. Be glad that you have muscles, to help you skip and run. ‘Cause if you didn’t have them, you would be a skeleton! 8

“H2Ohhhhh!”Hardy Heart - LeadThe Kidney Brothers - Chorus

VERSE 1 (HARDY)Ever since I was a baby, you’ve been in my heart,In my blood and in my bones. We’ve never been apart.I can live without my bike and I’ll survive without TV.But you’re always gonna be a part of me.

CHORUS (KIDNEY BROTHERS)H2O-wo-woI love you so-wo-woFrom my head right down to each and every toe-oe-oeEvery drip and drop I drinkMakes me reminisce and thinkOf the good times that I’ve had with H20- wo-wo.

VERSE 2 (Hardy) Did you know your heart is mostly made of water?(Sir Rebrum) So is your brain. (Madam Muscle) And all your blood and muscles, too!(Calci) And here’s something I’ll bet you didn’t know:One fifth of every bone is made of H2O!

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 3 (HARDY)Puttin’ water in your body, that’s called hydration. You need H2O for things like perspiration.Just think how hot you’d get, if your body couldn’t sweat. Without water you’d be burning with frustration.

BRIDGE (KIDNEY BROTHERS)People say that we’re all wet, But I think that they’re just jaded.If H2O were to turn off its flow.We’d all be de-hy-dra-ted.

VERSE 4 (Hardy)I drink 6 to 8 big glasses of you ev-ry day.To keep my body healthy, it’s the only way.Every organ, every vein, every bone, and every cellNeeds a constant flow of water to continue working well.

VERSE 3 (PERI)If you want your food to taste good, then you’re gonna have to wait.Have a little bit of patience and anticipate.If you pick it too soon, then it’s gonna taste sour,Let it ripen on the plant. It’ll really taste great!

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 4 (WINDY)There’s nothing like the feeling, nothing comes close.When I’m breathin’ fresh air, with the dirt between my toes.You’ll have to beg my pardon, but I really love to garden.It helps to chase away my cares and woes.

“KEEP IT MOVIN’!” Peri Stolic - LeadHardy Heart & The Kidney Brothers - Chorus

VERSE 1Your intestine’s never restin’. Waste is always moving through. To keep things rollin’ through your colon, there are things that you can do. If you want to keep it movin’, then you’ve got to have a plan. You can start by eating fiber: fruits and vegetables and bran.

CHORUS Keep it movin’. It’s an easy thing t do. Eatin’ fiber, helps the waste to move on through. Your intestines will be viewing you with . . . admiration. ‘Cause you’re helping with the process of elimination. KEEP IT MOVIN’

VERSE 2If you want to help me squeeze out all the solid waste material, Then start your day with oatmeal or a whole grain kind of cereal. The bulk you get from fiber really helps me when I squeeze. I don’t have to work as hard. And excretion is a breeze.

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 3Your intestines are much like a tube of toothpaste, Or a tube of suntan lotion, if you know what I mean When they’re empty it’s a pain to squeeze the stuff out. When they’re full it’s so much easier to squeeze.

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 4So if you are a clever lass, or a dashing dapper dude You’ll keep me nice and full by eating fiber-rich food. Like apples, raisins, whole grain bread, asparagus, and peas. . . Kidney beans and blueberries, and lentils, if you please.

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 5 When you’re eating lots of fiber, there’s one more thing you can do, To help me get the waste to flow, to help it move on through. (SID) If you drink a lot of water you can really make a splash (KID) ‘Cause the water helps Peri . . . to take out the trash!
