Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high.
There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops, Away above the chimney tops.
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
Why, oh, why can't I?

My Favorite Things Lyrics

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

Oh Chanukah Lyrics

Chanukah, Oh Chanukah, come light the Menorah
Let's have a party; we'll all dance the hora
Gather round the table, we'll give you a treat
Dreydels to play with, and latkes to eat.

And while we are playing
The candles are burning bright
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago. (repeat from top)
Ending:
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago.

Thank-you for the music Lyrics

I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore 
If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before 
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing 
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing 
I'm so grateful and proud 
All I want is to sing it out loud 

So I say 
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing 
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing 
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty 
What would life be? 
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music 
For giving it to me 

Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk 
She says I began to sing long before I could talk 
And I've often wondered, how did it all start 
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart 
Like a melody can 
Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan 

So I say 
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing 
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing 
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty 
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music 
For giving it to me 

So I say thank you for the music 
For giving it to me
