The Backyardigans: Born to Play

The Backyardigans The Backyardigans: Born to Play Lyrics
1.Ready For Anything

Lyricist:Evan Lurie, Robert Scull, Mcpaul Smith

We've landed on Mars
On the red and rocky ground
Now it's time to get going
And look for that sound

But it's an alien world
Who knows what to expect
So before you explore
Make sure your gear is checked

We're ready for anything
Anything, anything

We brought lots
And lots of gear
Let's go down the list
And make sure it's all here

Maps and shovels, check
Cables and ropes, check
Flashlight and sneakers, check
Bubble bath soap, check

Sunblock and towels, check
Grappling hooks, check
I even brought crayons
And coloring books

We're ready for anything
Anything, anything

There's so much equipment
Packed on Rover
But it's pack real well
So it won't tip over

We're ready for anything
Anything, anything

We're ready for anything
Anything, anything

We brought a whole lot
But why take a chance
And while we're exploring
We might sing and dance

We're ready for anything
Anything, anything


2.Nobody's Bigger Than A Giant

Lyricist:Evan Lurie, Adam Peltzman, Douglas Wieselman

Nobody's bigger than a giant
Nobody's quite as large as me
Nobody's bigger than a giant
I'm humongous, wouldn't you agree?

I'm large, I'm huge
Enormous, tall and grand
I can pick up your whole house
And hold it in my hand

I'm wider than a valley
And taller than a tower
I can lift an apple tree
And sniff it like a flower

I'm vast, immense
Happy and gigantic
I'm bigger than the oceans
Pacific and Atlantic

My hands can reach the planets
My nose can sniff the clouds
And when I stomp my giant feet
The sound is really loud

'Cause nobody's bigger than a giant
Nobody's quite as large as me
Nobody's bigger than a giant
I'm humongous, wouldn't you agree?
I'm humongous, wouldn't you agree?


3.I'm A Mountie

Lyricist:Radha Blank, Evan Lurie, Paul Lawrence Smith, Douglas
Wieselman

I'm a Mountie and I'm marching through the snow
I'm a Mountie to the Yukon I must go
I'm a Mountie, a perfection, if something needs protection
Then there's no protector you could know

Mountie on duty, Mountie on duty
I'm a Mountie and I'm marching through the snow

We are Mounties and we're marching through the snow
We are Mounties to the Yukon we must go
We are Mounties and we're good sports and we like defending snow
forts
We are Mounties and we're marching through the snow

Yes, we are Mounties in our Mountie matching suits
You can tell us by our Mountie salutes
We are Mounties marching in our Mountie boots


4.The Customer Is Always Right

Lyricist:Evan Lurie, Mcpaul Smith

There's a problem here, what do you mean?
We came to see something we haven't seen
That's not our fault, we really tried
Well not enough, we're not satisfied
And I don't mean to be a jerk
But let me tell you 'bout how these things work

See, I am the customer
And the customer is always right
She's right
I am the customer
And the customer is always right

We've done the best that we can do
This awesome ride is almost through
This awesome swamp with awesome stuff
Well, I just think it's not enough
And you think right my purple friend
And I'd say this is not the end

'Cause I am the customer
And the customer is always right
Oh, yeah
You are the customer
And the customer is always right


5.Go, Go, Go

Lyricist:Evans Lurie, Rodney Stringfellow

I'm now in front
I've got the speed
I love it when I'm in the lead

I gotta go, go, go, go, go
We gotta go, go, go
You can't go fast if you go too slow
So go, go, go, go, go

We're not in front
We're close behind
But we'll catchup, just give us time

I gotta go, go, go, go, go
We gotta go, go, go
You can't go fast if you go too slow
So go, go, go, go, go

I'm in the back
I'm in the rear
I don't give up, I never fear

I gotta go, go, go, go, go
We gotta go, go, go
You can't go fast if you go too slow
So go, go, go, go, go


6.Racing Day

Lyricist:Evan Lurie, Paul Lawrence Smith, Rodney Stringfellow, Douglas
Wieselman

Racing day, it's racing day
Racing day, it's racing day
It's not picture-tracing day
Today's the day we race

We'll run somewhere that's not right here
And while we do the crowd will cheer
Through the forest over the snows
Across the ocean and then who knows

Whoever is the first around
Will get to make that victory sound
Dunt-da-daa, is what they'll say
At the end of racing day

Racing day, it's racing day
Racing day, it's racing day
It's not doily lacing day
Today's the day we race

A long, long, long, long way we've come
To get back where we started from
We raced real hard but now it's time
To break that tape and cross that line

Racing day, it's racing day
Racing day, it's racing day
It's not self-effacing day
Today's the day we race
Today's the day we race
Today's the day we race


7.Nothing Too Tough

Lyricist:Evan Lurie, Adam S Peltzman, Rodney Stringfellow, Douglas
Wieselman

If there's trouble under water
Deep beneath the sea
Call up harbor rescue
And we'll send rescue 3

Do you really mean it
Am I the one you'd send?
When it comes to swimming
On you we can depend

There is nothing too tough
Nothing too tough
Nothing too tough for us
The situation can make us fuss
There is nothing too tough for us

The sharks are spinning all around
There's no need to run
Call up harbor rescue
And we'll send rescue 1

Oh, I'm so embarrassed
You've really called on me
Well everybody else is
Scared of sharks to see

There is nothing too tough
Nothing too tough
Nothing too tough for us
The situation can make us fuss
There is nothing too tough for us

If you need to solve a problem
Then this is what you do
Call up harbor rescue
And we'll send rescue 2

Now you got me blushing
You think that I'm that smart
When it comes to thinking
Your skills are all to judge

There is nothing too tough
Nothing too tough
Nothing too tough for us
The situation can make us fuss
There is nothing too tough
Nothing too tough for us


8.Dragon Mountain

Lyricist:Evans Lurie, Adam Peltzman, Douglas Wieselman

We're marching to the top, to the top, to the top
Yes, we're marching to the top of Dragon Mountain
Up, up, up, up there is no place to hide
'Cause a dragon lurks inside

At the top of Dragon Mountain
At the top of Dragon Mountain

Do you think that the dragon is scary?
Yes, I do
Do you think that the dragon is hairy?
No, do you?

Do you think that the dragon plays games?
I hope so
Do you think that he shoots out flames?
Please say no

We're marching to the top, to the top, to the top
Yes, we're marching to the top of Dragon Mountain
Up, up, up, up there is no place to hide
'Cause a dragon lurks inside

At the top of Dragon Mountain
At the top of Dragon Mountain

Do you think that the dragon will greet us?
That be neat
Or perhaps he will try to eat us
You say eat?

Perhaps we won't fit in his belly
Then I cheer
Don't dragons like goblins and jelly
I'm outta here

We're marching to the top, to the top, to the top
Yes, we're marching to the top of Dragon Mountain
Up, up, up, up there is no place to hide
'Cause a dragon lurks inside

At the top of Dragon Mountain
At the top of Dragon Mountain
At the top of Dragon Mountain

At the top of Dragon Mountain
At the top of Dragon Mountain
At the top of Dragon Mountain


9.Lady In Pink

Lyricist:Evan Lurie, Robert Scull

Who is the girl who's got bad on her mind
Who thinks evil thought with a smile and a wink
Who's the girl with a plan to mess up mankind
Me, I'm the lady in pink

Lady in pink, lady in pink
She's bad, she's evil
And I'm worse than you think
Me, I'm the lady in pink

Who is the girl who never plays nice
And wishes that all rubber duckies would sink
Who interrupts people and never thinks twice
Me, I'm the lady in pink

Lady in pink, lady in pink
She does terrible things
Even worse than you think
I'm the lady in pink

She's selfish and cruel and I totally rule
She stops at nothing to win
She cheats and she lies, I don't even like pie
When there's bad to be done come to me

Those containers, you better forget it
They'll be mine before you can blink
Wherever they are you can bet who'll get them
Me, I'm the lady in pink

Lady in pink, lady in pink
Ain't she totally evil? Now what do you think?
Lady in pink, lady in pink
Me, me, me, me, me, I'm the lady in pink


10.I Feel Good

Lyricist:Evan Lurie, Adam S Peltzman

I used to feel so dark inside
So evil, bad and gloomy
But now the sun is coming out
And joy is rushing through me

I feel good, he feels good
Oh so good, oh so good
I used to be a bad boy but now I am glad to be good
Oh so good

I used to be a bad boy
Always running from the cops, so bad
But now I am a good boy
I hope it never stops

So much goodness in my heart
I don't know where to start
I wanna clap my hands, jump for joy
Run around and play like a human boy
I feel a happy and nice, groovy and funny

I wanna help an old lady across the street
I wanna volunteer to pick up litter
Help people out 'cause I'm not bitter
I wanna make new friends, such a quilt
Teach at a school that I have built

I feel good, he feels good
Oh so good, oh so good
I used to be a bad boy but now I am glad to be good
Oh, so good

He feels good, he feels good
Oh so good, oh so good
I used to be a bad boy but now I am glad to be good
Oh so good


11.I Never Fail To Deliver The Mail

Lyricist:Scott Charles Gray, Evan Lurie, Paul Lawrence Smith

I never fail to deliver the mail
I never fail to deliver the mail
Tyrone the mail man, Tyrone the mail man
Tyrone the mail man does no fail

When you need to send a letter
Or send a card or even better
A birthday gift to show you care
I'm the guy who gets it there

I never fail to deliver the mail
I never fail to deliver the mail
Tyrone the mail man, Tyrone the mail man
Tyrone the mail man does no fail

Not rain or snow or gloom of light
Mosquito bites or busted light
No smelly smells or scary sounds
Will keep me from my post route

An envelop or package, a parcel or a box
Or a 53 pound bag of dirt and bricks and rocks
The size it doesn't matter, the weight I just don't care
As long as there's a postal stamp the mailman gets it there

I never fail to deliver the mail
I never fail to deliver the mail
Tyrone the mail man, Tyrone the mail man
Tyrone the mail man does no fail
