Ev’rybody gather ‘round!

Gonna have a picnic on the ground.

You can bet I’ll be their guest.

That’s ‘cause I’m a picnic pest!

Picnic! C’mon let’s have a picnic!

With lots of food that’s fun to eat,

Let’s all do a picnic dance.

What’s a picnic without ants?

All you have to do is chew,

At the outdoor barbecue!

We’re gonna cut a rug here on the ground.

(Solo 2)Swing that partner that you’ve found.

Buzz around with a picnic sound!

Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz!






Mmmmm! That’s good!

3. Be A Lady

If someone treats you rough, and life is kind of tough,

You think you’ve had enough but be a lady!

If someone isn’t kind, and friends are hard to find,

You just say never mind and be a lady!

Be a lady!

Whoa, oh, oh, be a lady!


That’s what I am!

(Dot)

If someone isn’t nice, their heart’s as cold as ice,

Well just take my advice and be a lady!

(Another Lady Bug)

If someone hurts, your pride, you’d like to run and hide,

You just keep dignified and be a lady!

Be a lady!



That’s what I am!

(Dot) Sing it with me girls! (spoken)

When all you see are dots! Complexion’s full of spots!

Remember all you’ve got and a be a lady!

When all your friends have fled, and all you see is red,

Just keep a level head and be a lady!

Be a lady!



That’s what I am!

Be a lady!



That’s what I am!

(spoken ad libs)Yeah….you go girl!...that’s right! (etc.)

4. Firefly

Firefly, firefly,

Keeping me company.

Turn on your gentle glow,

See how you shine!

Firefly, firefly,

Light up the night for me.

You shine your light

And I will shine mine.

Firefly, firefly,

I’ll set you free!

Firefly, firefly,

You’re a friend to me.

One light will be a light for peace,

Two for show.

Three fill our hearts with friendship,

Warm in your glow.

Let the light flow!

Firefly, firefly,

Light up my life for me.

Turn all the darkness

Into soft light.

Firefly, firefly,

Now I can really see.

You shine your light

And I will shine mine.

Firefly, firefly,

I’ll set you free!

Firefly, firefly,

You’re a friend to me.

6. Things Change

At times, things may look dark.

They may seem hopeless like endless night.

Some days, you’ve lost your spark,

You’ve lost your focus,

You’ve lost your light!

But clouds don’t stay forever,

Rainbows do appear,

So even though it’s stormy,

There’s one thing very clear:

Things change! Things will change!

We grow, we’re not the same.

We change our colors, we change our tune.

And then, it’s a new game.

We learn like others, so very soon:

That clouds don’t stay forever,

Rainbows do appear,

So even though it’s stormy,

There’s one thing very clear:


You’ll come to see how beautiful

You can really be,

And when you do, you’re life will change,

And it will set you free!


And you’ll be beautiful like me!
