Remember this one?  (Time for a new school song!)

Boise Eliot is magic--
what a place to start.
Boise Eliot is magic
we all do our part.
Catch the magic, be a star.
Live the magic, you’ll go far.
Boise Eliot is magic:
feel it in your heart!

WHY CAN'T WE BE FRIENDS

FROSTY HAND JIVE

F! I said F - R

I said F - R - O

I said F-R-O-S

F-R-O-S - - -T-Y Doin' the Frosty hand jive.


Frosty, the snowman was a jolly happy soul

With a corncob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty, the snowman, is a fairy tale they say

He was made of snow but the children know

That he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found

For when they placed it on his head he began to dance around

Man that Frosty sure is tough!

Watch that Frosty strut his stuff

Frosty's havin' lots of fun

But keep him out of the blazin' sun.

Frosty the snowman, he knew the sun was hot that day

So he said, "Let's run and we'll have some fun now, before I melt away."

Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand

Runnin' here and there all around the square sayin', "Catch me if you can."

He lead them down the streets of town right to the traffic cop

He only paused a moment when he heard him holler stop

Man that Frosty sure is tough!

Watch that Frosty strut his stuff

Frosty's havin' lots of fun

But keep him out of the blazin' sun.

Thumpety thump thump Thumpety thump thump

Look at Frosty go Frosty

Thumpety thump thump Thumpety thump thump

over the hills of snow Frosty

Frosty, the snowman, he had to hurry on his way

But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't you cry I'll be back again some day."


SANTA’S ON HIS WAY MEDLEY

( “Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town,” and “Up on the Housetop”)

Christmas Eve is coming soon.  Santa’s on his way

Are you ready for St. Nick? Hear these words I say

You better watch out, you better not cry-eeyi.

Better not pout, I’m tellin’ you why.

Santa Claus is comin’ to town. He’s comin’ to town!

He’s makin’ a list. Checkin’ it twice

Gonna find out who’s naughty and ni-yice.

Santa Claus is comin’ to town

He sees you when you’re sleeping.

He knows when you're a wake

He knows if you’ve been bad or good.

So be good, for goodness sake

You better watch out. You better not cry

You better not pout, I’m telling you why Cause Santa Claus is comin’ -- to town

-- Ho, ho, ho

-- Up on the roof baby

-- Jolly Old St. Nicholas

Can you hear him? I can hear him.

Is he here? Santa’s here!

Up on the housetop reindeer pause. Out jumps good old Santa Clause

Down through the chimney with lots of toys. All for the little ones, Christmas joys!

So you better watch out. You better not cry-eeyi Better not pout, I’m tellin’ you why

Santa Claus is comin’, Santa Claus is comin,’ Santa Claus is comin’, to town.

America
My country ‘tis of Thee
Sweet land of liberty
Of Thee I sing.
Land where my Fathers died
Land of the Pilgrim’s pride
From every mountainside
Let freedom ring!

Old King Glory
Old King Glory on the mountain.
The mountain was so high it nearly touched the sky
The first one . . . the secnd one . . . the third one follow me.

SUN IN MY HEART
Woke up this morning with the sun in my heart

Woke up this morning with the sun in my heart
I'll be shining all day.
