Rain Everyday is Earth Day

Oh, where do you come from Everyday is Earth Day,

You little drops of rain? If it's cold or wet or hot
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter Pitch in to save the planet
Down the window panes It's the only one we've got.

One, Two Save The Earth

One. Two. People everywhere

The west wind blew. breathe the same air,
Three. Four. share the same seas,
The thunder's roar. live together on the land.
People everywhere
Five. Six. Seven. who learn, plan,
Rain from heaven. work, care,
Eight. Nine. Ten. can
Sunny again. save the earth.

Happy Chinese New Year

"Gung Hay Fat Choy!"

In China, every girl and boy
Celebrates the New Year
in a very special way -
With fireworks and dragons,
colored red and gold -
They welcome in the new year
and chase away the old!

Matahari Recycling In My Home

Matahariku bersinarlah engkau
Kawan - kawanku akan ke sekolah
Burung berkicau bernyanyi dengan riang
Tanda hari sudah siang
Terbit Matahari
Dari terbit matahari pagi pagi
Sampai pada masuknya sore sore
Marilah kita berdisiplin

Recycling in my home goes round and round,
Round and round, round and round.

Take them back, take them back.
Tie up the papers and take them back,
All through the day.
Crush the cans and take them back.....
Rinse the milk bottles and take them back....
Save the glass and take it back......

When the saints go marching in Waltzing Matilda

Oh when the saints, go marching in Once jolly swagman

Yes when the saints go marching in
Oh Lord I want to be in that number
Oh when the saints go matching in
Oh! Susanna
I come from Alabama with my banjo on my
knee;
I'm goin' to Lou'siana my true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left,
the weather it was dry;
The sun so hot I froze to death,
Susanna don't you cry.
Oh! Susanna, don't you cry for me;
I come from Alabama,
with my banjo on my knee.
Sat beside the billabong
Under the shade of coolibah tree
And he sang as he sat
And waited by the billabong
You’ll come and waltzing matilda
Waltzing matilda 2x
You’ll come and waltzing matilda with me
Once jolly traveler
Sat beside the clear blue lake
Under the shade of tall tall tree
And he sang as he sat
And waited by the clear blue lake
You’ll come and waltzing matilda
With me

I had a dream the other night,

When everything was still;
I thought I saw Susanna dear,
A-coming down the hill.
The buckwheat cake was in her mouth,
The tear was in her eye,
Said I, I'm coming from the south,
Susanna don't you cry.

Oh! Susanna, don't you cry for me;

I come from Alabama,
with my banjo on my knee.
