08_Build Them Up_slowed

I used to have a house down by the sea

I was happy as I could be

The sun was shining

And I was smiling,

But then my house got washed away

I was sad and gray

Until I knew

What I should do:

One, two, three, and four

Five shapes, maybe more

Five six, seven, eight

Let’s build, I can’t wait,

Five and ten and fifteen and twenty

Rectangles and circles are plenty

Build them up (yeah, come on up, up, up)

I’m going to build them up (up, up, up)

Ten and twenty, thirty and forty

Lines and squares and triangles for me

Build them up (yeah, come on up, up, up)

I’m going to build them up (up, up, up)

Now I’m walking out here on my own

I don’t have a home

The world is down

Broken all around,

The day is turning now to night

It gives me quite a fright

But I’m not through

I know what to do:

One, two, three, and four

Five shapes, maybe more

Five six, seven, eight

Let’s build, I can’t wait.

Five and ten and fifteen and twenty

Rectangles and circles are plenty

Build them up (yeah, come on up, up, up)

I’m going to build them up (up, up, up)

Ten and twenty, thirty and forty

Lines and squares and triangles for me

Build them up (yeah, come on up, up, up)

I’m going to build them up (up, up, up)

Five and ten and fifteen and twenty

Rectangles and circles are plenty

Build them up (yeah, come on up, up, up)

I’m going to build them up (up, up, up)

Ten and twenty, thirty and forty

Lines and squares and triangles for me

Build them up (yeah, come on up, up, up)

I’m going to build them up (up, up, up)
