[Verse] Oh Mr. Peanut stands so frail With skinny legs that look so pale On the deck he starts to sway Without big men he blows away [Verse 2] When the seas get rough and roar He clings to rails and cries for more Big sweaty lads with arms so tight Hold him close through stormy nights [Chorus] Hey ho hold him tight Mr. Peanut's legs aren't right Nuzzle close and keep him near On this ship there's no more fear [Verse 3] Through the waves and salty spray He'd fall without their hug each day Timbers creak and sails do groan But he’s safe and not alone [Bridge] Funny sight with skinny limbs But he smiles and softly grins In their warmth he finds his place With a joyful steady pace [Chorus] Hey ho hold him tight Mr. Peanut's legs aren't right Nuzzle close and keep him near On this ship there's no more fear

I draw lines and mark where the rivers should bend And trace out the roads that I'll never descend A paper ocean, wrinkles and waves Godlike intentions, but frozen in place I chart constellations, connecting the stars A galaxy born, as the ink leaves a mark The compass spins, but I’m stuck on this page Set sail without movement, drifting in place A pen in my hand, and the lines overflow The tides keep on rising, but I’m stuck below Ships passing by, they don’t notice me calling I forget I’m in charge and that I’m the one stalling The horizon stretches, but it never grows near The winds whisper secrets that I refuse to hear When one map is finished, I start off anew I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true I paint the shadows where the mountains once stood And sketch every path that I’ll never pursue A paper sky, the colors don’t blend Lacking intention, a goal, or a plan I’ve planned out journeys, a million so far Though I’ve traced every line, there’s no path to embark The ink dries slowly, it never runs out A journey in drawings, but no steps to count A pen in my hand, and the lines overflow The tides keep on rising, but I’m stuck below Ships passing by, they don’t notice me calling I forget I’m in charge and that I’m the one stalling The horizon stretches, but it never grows near The winds whisper secrets that I refuse to hear When one map is finished, I start off anew I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true These maps are a prison I created myself I choose to stand still with no story to tell A paper-thin world that easily tares With intricate roads that lead me nowhere A pen in my hand, and the lines overflow The tides keep on rising, but I’m stuck below Ships passing by, they don’t notice me calling I forget I’m in charge and that I’m the one stalling The horizon stretches, but it never grows near The winds whisper secrets that I refuse to hear When one map is finished, I start off anew I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true When one map is finished, I start off anew I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true
[Verse] There'll be three heroes tonight asleep Bluebear with courage so deep The Orch of dawn with eyes so bright And the Lord with iron heart's might [Chorus] Gallant ones in moonlight's grace Visions of an ancient place Echoes of a time long past Legends that forever last [Verse 2] Bluebear carries a sword so keen Warrior of valleys unseen The Orch sings dawn's early song In this night they all belong [Chorus] Gallant ones in moonlight's grace Visions of an ancient place Echoes of a time long past Legends that forever last [Verse 3] The Lord stands tall with armor's gleam His heart A fire A radiant beam Through twilight they march in tune Guided by the silver moon [Bridge] Stars will watch their silent fight Glory casting shadows' flight Whispers of their deeds unfold Fortunes found and tales retold
[Verse] In the heart of the wild we gather 'round again With kayaks in the water we ride the rolling rain Hiking up the mountains where eagles learn to soar Every step a story every trail we score [Chorus] Campfire nights where stars ignite Tales of climbing to the heights Tents and laughter under skies so grand In the scouts we roam this land [Verse 2] Tents are homes beneath the twilight beams In the wilderness we're chasing dreams Climbing cliffs with hands so bold Every rock a secret told [Chorus] Campfire nights where stars ignite Tales of climbing to the heights Tents and laughter under skies so grand In the scouts we roam this land [Bridge] Kayaks gliding through the misty dawn Every paddle stroke a new adventure born From sunrise hikes to twilight's song In the scouts we all belong [Chorus] Campfire nights where stars ignite Tales of climbing to the heights Tents and laughter under skies so grand In the scouts we roam this land

You're a mean one, Mr. Bogdan, You really are a fright. You're as charming as a cactus, You're as slippery as the night, Mr. Bogdan. You're a rotten apple with a wormy bite! You're a monster, Mr. Bogdan, Your heart's a block of ice. Your brain is full of cobwebs, You've got a heart that's hard as dice, Mr. Bogdan. I wouldn't trust you with a glance or a roll of the dice! You're a vile one, Mr. Bogdan, You have termites in your smile. You have all the tender sweetness Of a crocodile, Mr. Bogdan. Given the choice between the two of you, I'd take the crocodile! You're a foul one, Mr. Bogdan, You're a nasty, wasty skunk. Your heart is full of unwashed socks, Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Bogdan. The three words that best describe you are as follows: Stink, stank, stunk! You're a crooked one, Mr. Bogdan, You're the king of spiteful souls. Your heart's a dense black coal, Full of miserable holes, Mr. Bogdan. Your soul is a swampy mire, Overflowing with unspeakable goals!
[Verse] Mama's got her hands full in the kitchen Spaghetti squash simmerin' in the pan One day off she don't stop goin' Chasin' dust with a rag in hand [Verse 2] Tired eyes but keeps on movin' She's a whirlwind moppin' floors Laundry piles up high like skyscrapers Wish she'd take a break never yours [Chorus] Mama's working in the kitchen Flippin' through chores on a broken clock Wish she'd sit down take a breather But she won't stop 'til the dirt's all gone [Verse 3] Windows shinin' like the morning sun She hums a tune soft and low Scrubbin' grime off the dishes old Her tender hands never show the toll [Verse 4] Every room she leaves a touch of gold Mama's magic in every corner found In the chaos there's her quiet strength In her hustle there's a steady sound [Chorus] Mama's working in the kitchen Flippin' through chores on a broken clock Wish she'd sit down take a breather But she won't stop 'til the dirt's all gone
[Verse] Empty room sings to me Shadows dance where you used to be Memories like broken glass Can't escape our shattered past [Verse 2] Whispers haunt me late at night Words we spoke in dimmed twilight Fading stars from skies we knew Now all I see is shades of blue [Chorus] Shattered echoes fill my heart Can't believe we fell apart Every tear a song of woe In this world I'm left alone [Verse 3] Lonely streets we walked before Now they're just a corridor Leading to a place unknown Where I'm left to grieve alone [Chorus] Shattered echoes fill my heart Can't believe we fell apart Every tear a song of woe In this world I'm left alone [Bridge] Wish upon a broken star Dreams are fragile as they are Searching for a hint of light In the dark of endless night
[Verse] Under the sun so brightly shown Her voice chants stories unknown Drum beats echo through the air Whispered secrets everywhere [Verse 2] Crackling fire night’s embrace Wrinkled smiles on her face Ancient tales rise with the flame Generations call her name [Chorus] Dance in circles round the flame Feel the rhythm wild and tame Life and spirit in each beat Old and young as one we meet [Verse 3] Barefoot steps on sacred ground Echoes lost now finally found Harmonies that time forgot Carry wisdom in each note [Bridge] From the river to the trees Hear the whispers of the breeze Songs of land and sky above Bound by stories songs of love [Chorus] Dance in circles round the flame Feel the rhythm wild and tame Life and spirit in each beat Old and young as one we meet
