Look What I Found! (ound)

(Tune: Zip A Dee Doo Dah)

Look what I found right here on the ground!

The Easter Bunny’s been here.

He’s been hopping around,

out on the playground, bounding around,

hiding some eggs that have to be found!

Hot Dog! (ound/oom) (Tune: For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow)

Santa Claus brought me a hot rod,

but now my puppy is overawed.

He gets in and he zooms around

spinning circles on the ground.

What to do with a dog that speeds?

Give him a ticket that he can’t read?

I know just how to stop his zooms:

I think I’ll send him to his room!
