NWMF 2016 SING SING SING Lyrics

I HAVE A SONG TO SING I have a song to sing, it has a simple melody, Let everybody sing. There’s hope in our unity. There’s joy in song

TAKE A MAJOR SCALE Do re me fa so la ti do, so, take a major scale and choose some words you know. Make a simple song, needn’t be too long. Do re me fa so la ti do, la so do. Anything you want to say is fine, doesn’t even have to have a perfect rhyme. Do the best you can, make the lyrics scan, only choose the words that seem to fit in time. Writing songs can be a lot of fun, singing them is really good for everyone. You will never know ‘til you have go. You may be surprised at just how well you’ve done. You may be surprised at just how well you’ve done.

SING A ROUND We’ll sing a round, you’ll hear a number of melodies, it’s quite a sound when we are singing all three. Put the rhythm in your feet, keep a very steady beat. Try to make each word you speak clear as clear can be. Sing your melody to make a harmony. Sing your melody and make it sweet.

TOP OF THE WORLD Such a feelin’s comin’ over me. There is wonder in most ev’rything I see. Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes and I Won’t be surprised it’s a dream. Everything I want the world to be is now comin’ true, especially for me. And the reason is clear, it’s because you are here. You’re the nearest thing to heaven that I’ve seen. I’m on the top of the world, lookin’ down on creation and the only explanation I can find Is the love that I’ve found, every since you been around, your love’s put me at the top of the world. Something in the wind has learned my name and it’s tellin’ me that things are not the same. In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze, there’s a pleasin’ sense of happiness for me. There is only one wish on my mind. When this day is through I hope that I will find That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me. All I need will be mine if you are here. I’m on the top of the world, lookin’ down on creation and the only explanation I can find Is the love that I’ve found, every since you been around, your love’s put me at the top of the world.

SING Sing! Sing a song. Sing out loud. Sing out strong. Sing of good things not bad; sing of happy, not sad. Sing! Sing a song. Make it simple to last your whole life long. Don’t worry that it’s not good enough for anyone else to hear. Sing! Sing a song! La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

YOUR SONG It’s a little bit funny, this feeling inside. I’m not one of those who can easily hide. I don’t have much money, but boy if I did, I’d buy a big house where we both could live. So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do. You see I’ve forgotten if they’re green or they’re blue. Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean, yours are the sweetest eyes, I’ve ever seen. And you can tell ev’rybody this is your song. It may be quite simple, but now that it’s done. I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is when you’re in the world. If I was a sculpter, but then again no. Or a girl/guy who makes potions in a travelling show. I know it’s not much but it’s the best I can do. My gift is my song and this one’s for you. Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh. And you can tell ev’rybody this is your song. It may be quite simple, but now that it’s done. I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is when you’re in the world.

IT DON’T MEAN A THING What good is melody, what good is music, if it ain’t possessing something sweet? It ain’t the melody, it ain’t the music, there’s something else that makes the tune complete. It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing. Do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah. It don’t mean a thing, all you got to do is swing. Do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah. It makes no difference if it’s sweet or hot, just give that rhythm everything you’ve got It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing. Do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah. It makes no difference if it’s sweet or it’s hot, just give that rhythm everything you’ve got It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing. Do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah, do wah. It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing.

SING TOGETHER If I go before I say, to ev’ryone in my ballet, let me take this chance to thank you for the dance, If I run out of songs to sing to take your mind off ev’rything, just smile, sit awhile With the sun on your face, and remember the place we met. Take a breath, and soon I bet you’ll see, without you I would never be me. You are the leaves of my family tree. Sing together. If you knew me from the very start or we met last week at the grocery mart, Sing together. It’s the least that I can do, my final gift to you. Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh. When I pass the pearly gate, I will find some real estate. We can settle down and watch the world go round. We’ll send down all the love we got, and let them know we got a spot for them to be, and it’s all free, With the sun on your face, and remember you’re the place we met. Take a breath, and soon I bet you’ll see, without you I would never be me. You are the leaves of my family tree. Sing together. If you knew me from the very start or not at all, you’re still a part, Sing together. It’s the least that I can do, my final gift to you. Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh. Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh.

PRICE TAG Seem’s like everybody’s got a price, I wonder how they sleep at night. When the sale comes first and the truth comes second, just stop for a minute and smile. Why is everybody so serious? Acting so damn mysterious, got shades on your eyes and your heels so high that you can’t even have a good time. Everybody look to the left, everybody look to the right – can you feel that? Yeah, we’re paying with love tonight. It’s not about the money, money, money. We don’t need your money, money, money, We just wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag. Ain’t about the (huh) cha ching cha ching. Ain’t about the (yeah) b bling b bling Wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag We need to take it back in time, when music made us all unite, And it wasn’t low blows and video shows, am I the only one getting tired? Why is everybody so obsessed? Money can’t buy us happiness. Can we all slow down and enjoy right now? Guarantee we’ll be feeling alright. Everybody look to the left, everybody look to the right – can you feel that? Yeah, we’re paying with love tonight. It’s not about the money, money, money. We don’t need your money, money, money, We just wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag. Ain’t about the (huh) cha ching cha ching. Ain’t about the (yeah) b bling b bling Wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag Well, keep the price tag, and take the cash back, just give me six strings and a half stack, And you can, can keep the cars, leave me the garage and all I, yes all I need are keys and guitars. And guess what, in thirty seconds I’m leaving to Mars. Yeah, we leaping across these undefeatable odds. It’s like this man, you can’t put a price on the life. We do this for the love, so we fight and sacrifice every night So we ain’t gon stumble and fall never, Waiting to see this in the sign of defeat uh uh. So we gon keep every one moving their feet, so bring back the beat and then everyone sing. It’s not about the money, money, money. We don’t need your money, money, money, We just wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag. Ain’t about the (huh) cha ching cha ching. Ain’t about the (yeah) b bling b bling Wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag It’s not about the money, money, money. We don’t need your money, money, money, We just wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag. Ain’t about the (huh) cha ching cha ching. Ain’t about the (yeah) b bling b bling Wanna make the world dance, forget about the price tag Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, yeah yeah, oh Forget about the price tag Ah

YOU ARE YOUNG Fearful child, have faith in brighter days, stay until this darkness fades away. Lie still beside me, I’ll hold you now, I’ll hold you forever. Winter’s hand will freeze your heart again, doors will close , no time to start again, Nothing is given except the ties that hold us together. Lay down your load, cause ev’ry day it’s gonna grow. And bask in the sunshine, try to pay no mind, try to pay no mind at all To all the things that you don’t know. You’ve got time to realise you’re shielded by the hands of love. ‘Cause you are young. Fading light may make a fool of me, courage fails strength slips away from me. Lie still beside me and hold me now and hold me forever. Lay down your load, cause ev’ry day it’s gonna grow. These days are sacred hey now don’t be scared, baby don’t be scared at all. Of all the things that you don’t know. You’ve got time to realise you’re shielded by the hands of love. ‘Cause you are young. You’ve got time, you’ve gotta try to bring some good into this world. ‘Cause you are young. ‘Cause you are young. Oh, oh, oh, oh, ‘cause you are young.
