Our Derry Idol

Here is a sample of Olivia (still congested) singing a piece from "Sing" as heard on Sesame Street.

Olivia's Chorus (click to hear it)

Lyrics to the Original:

Sing

Written by Joe Raposo
as sung by Nathan Lane and The Oinker Sisters

(The Oinker Sisters are in brackets)

(La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la)

Sing
(Wouldn't you like to sing?)
Sing a song
(Sing a simple little song)
Sing out loud
(Don't you shine when you sing?)
Sing out strong
(And you never will stop, no way)
Sing of good things, not bad
(Just sing of good things)
Sing of happy, not sad
(Happy, happy, happy singing)

Sing
(Don't you ever stop singing)
Sing a song
(We can hear your voice ringing)
Make it simple
To last your whole life long
(You can sing your whole life long)
Don't worry that it's not good enough
For anyone else to hear
(Don't you worry ..)
All: Just sing
(Keep singing)
Sing a song
Hit it, girls

(La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la)

Sing
(Sing)
Sing a song
(La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
