If I Could Be... (2007)




















Drive The Car lyrics - Meredith Brooks

I like it when we get inside the car
I like it when we drive, I don't care how far
Mom buckles up and she turns on the radio
I just sit back and stare out the window

I watch the trees and all the people go by
Sometimes I feel like I'm flying

When we drive the car
When we're driving in the car
Drive the car
When we're driving in the car
And I hear beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep, yeah
Beep-beep, beep-beep, yeah, yeah

I like it when the wind is in my face
Up on fake stereos roll over the place
It makes me happy when my mom hits the gas
Oh, how I wish this ride would always last

I watch the dogs and all the drugs go by
Sometimes I feel like I'm flying

When we drive a car
When we're driving in the car
Drive the car
When we're driving in the car
Drive in the car
I love to drive in the car

Beep-beep, beep-beep, a beep-beep, yeah
A beep-beep, beep-beep, yeah, yeah

Drive the car
When we're driving in the car
Drive the car
When we're driving in the car
Drive the car
When we're driving in the car
Drive the car
When we're driving in the car

I hear beep-beep, a beep-beep, a beep-beep, yeah
Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep, do do do do do do

Drive the car
When we're driving in the car
Drive the car
When we're driving in the car
Drive the car
When we're driving in the car

If I Could Be... lyrics - Meredith Brooks

If I could be a little birdie
I would fly so high I'd not be hurt
When I got tired I'd hang out in a tree
If I could be a fish that swam
I would use my fins and go so fast
Nobody would ever catch me

But I really wouldn't wanna be
Anything else but me
I only wanna pretend in my daydreams

That I could be an alligator
They'd all jump back, I'd say see ya later
And I would have the pond just for me
If I could be a big white dog
I would bark and jump on everyone
And they'd all pat my head and give me treats

But I really wouldn't wanna be
Anything else but me
I only wanna pretend in my daydreams

That I could be a little bug
I would hide and spy on everyone
And nobody would know that it is me
It's just me
Hey, it's me

Dance, Shake, Wiggle! lyrics - Meredith Brooks

Everywhere that I can
I turn on the music and I'm clapping my hands
Soon as I hear the beat
I can't stop my body and I'm moving my feet

I throw my hands in the air
Shake it up, shake it down, shake them everywhere
Turn it up all the way
Nothing's more fun any time of the day

Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance

Everyone can dance in this world
It doesn't matter if you're a boy or a girl
Just get up and move
Cause when you hear the beat that's all you wanna do

Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance, dance

Shake, wiggle, yeah, turn around and dance
Shake, wiggle, yeah, turn around and
Give me a beat, give me a beat
Give me a beat, give me a beat
Give me a beat, give me a beat
Give me a beat, give me a beat

Ah, give me a beat anytime
Cause when I hear that music I'm feeling so fine
I never wanted to end
Nothing's better when I'm dancing with my friends

Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance (Come on, let's dance)
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance

Shake, shake, shake, yeah, turn around and dance
Shake, wiggle, yeah, turn around and

(Give me a beat, give me a beat)

Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance
Ah, dance, ah, dance, dance, dance, dance

Shake, wiggle, yeah, turn around and dance

The La La Song lyrics - Meredith Brooks

Well, anyone can sing a song
And you can sing it all day long
It'll make you feel like the first day of spring

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Here's all you have to know to sing a song
Cause you can make it be just about anything

From your head to your toes
Open your mouth away you go
A song straight from your heart
All the way up to the stars

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Here's all you have to know to sing a song
Just let it come out is all you have to do

You don't even have to know the words
Just sing and let your voice be heard
Y 'all feel so good the whole day through

From your head to your toes
Open your mouth away you go
A song straight from your heart
All the way up to the stars

Oh, and if you're feeling blue
And you just want to be happy
Oh, sing a song and you will smile
And know it's true

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

You don't even have to know the words
Just sing and let your voice be heard
You'll feel so good the whole day through

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Every Dog lyrics - Meredith Brooks

My dog Paco is a big brown lad
He's the best friend I ever had
He's big and strong and works real hard
For tech and family, digging in our backyards

Every day he plays with me
And cookies are his favorite treat
He's not supposed to eat so much
But today we shared my lunch

Cause every dog has its day
Every dog has its day
Every dog has what they say
Every dog has its day

Paco has lots of friends
Playing in the park all the weekend
One, two, three, four, five, six
They run all day chasing after sticks

They get hot and tired, it's cool
In their very own doggy pool
Some are big and some are small
But only one will get that ball

Every dog has its day
Every dog has its day
Every dog has what they say
Every dog has its day

Every dog has its day
Every dog has its day
Every dog has its day
Every dog has its day
This is what they say

Every dog has its day
Every dog has its day
Every dog has what they say
Every dog has its day

Every dog has its day
Every dog has its day
Every dog has its day

What's Your Name? lyrics - Meredith Brooks

Hey everybody, what's your name?
Everybody, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
What's your name? What's your name?
Oh, one, two, three, four

How many know a boy named Ian?
Ever heard of a girl named Paige?
Do you know someone named Owen?
How about a boy named Jaden?

Ever hear of a name like Spencer?
How about a little joy?
Luca, Chloe, Dylan, James
Tell me what your name is

Everybody, what's your name?
Everybody, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
What's your name? What's your name?
Oh, one, two, three, four

Alaina, Max, Will and Jake
Tell me what your name is

Everybody, what's your name?
Everybody, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
What's your name? What's your name?
Oh, one, two, three, four

Troy knows a boy named Bendy
Aiden is lots of fun
Alexander is the longest name
And Ty is the shortest one
Tell me, have you ever met a Jacob?
What about Aloushaun
Madeleine, Kate, Sophia or Dane?
What's your favorite name?

Everybody, what's your name?
Everybody, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
What's your name? What's your name?
Oh, one, two, three, four

Alright, here comes the fun part
First off, put your hands together, like this
And on the count of four
You're gonna say your name as loud as you can
My friends are gonna show you how
Here they go
Oh, one, two, three, four
That was great
Okay, now it's your turn
On the count of four
One, two, three, four
That was really good
Are you still clapping?
Ooh, hey, ok
Is that it?

Ball Song lyrics - Meredith Brooks

I love balls in every way
I love balls every day
One ball, two balls, three or four
Zoom outside, roll them on the floor

I love balls and if I could
I'd play with all the balls in the neighborhood
I wonder if there could be
Anyone that loves balls as much as me

I love balls any time
It doesn't matter to me if the greens will shine
I love balls and yeah it's true
Red, green or blue

I love balls in one, two, three
Turns of balls for you and me
I love balls for so much fun
Dancing balls for one by one

I love balls anywhere
Anytime, anyplace, I don't care
I can't get enough of them
Throw it again and again

Least balls, soccer balls, basketballs, footballs
Hard balls, river balls, red and green and purple balls
Yellow balls, white balls, big and small and two footballs
I love any ball, any kind of ball at all

Ah, ah, ah, ah

I love balls, don't you know
Bouncing them up so high, passing down so low
Throw them for the dog, go on to a friend
Everybody loves it when you throw it to them

I love balls and gadgets too
It's funny what love can do
No, I'm not the only one
Of the things that balls are so much fun

Soft balls, meatballs, volleyball, tennis balls
Beach balls, bowling balls, every kind of bouncy ball
Orange balls, giant ball, keeps up all the giant balls
I love any ball, any kind of ball at all
Oh, la, la la, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

I love balls, you know

Why lyrics - Meredith Brooks

Why does the wind blow?
How does the grass grow?
When do the bees go to bed?
How do the clouds move
When the cow jumps over the moon?
Does she fall down?
Does she bump her head?

These are things that I want to know
These are things that make me wonder

How do the birds fly?
What makes the blue sky when I'm happy?
Why do I smile?
How do we'll spin round?
Why is up up and down down?
Yes, I'll last again in a while

These are things that I want to know
These are things that make me wonder
When will I ever get to know
All the things that make me wonder

What makes the sunshine?
Why is it dark at night?
Will I ever be tall as a tree?
And why does my heart pound?
Whenever you're around
What is this happy feeling?

These are things that I want to know
These are things that make me wonder
When will I ever get to know
All the things that make me wonder

And these are things that I want to know
These are things that make me wonder
And when will I ever get to know
All the things that make me wonder

That make me wonder
That make me wonder

My Chair lyrics - Meredith Brooks

In my chair I am at home
It's a place all of my own
In my chair I sit and dream
When it's just my chair and knee
In my chair I cozy up
It's always there, no matter what
My chair fits me to a T
I love my chair and it loves me

Sitting in the corner waiting for me to come
To pull it out and push it on the floor and have some fun
And it was there all night waiting for the sunlight
To start another day

In my chair I am at home
It's a place all of my own
In my chair I sit and dream
When it's just my chair and knee
In my chair I cozy up
It's always there, no matter what
My chair fits me to a T
I love my chair and it loves me

When I was smaller it seemed like my chair was so big
Now I can't take it anywhere I want to sit
I'm sure other chairs are nice but nothing that I land
Quiet as much as mine

In my chair I am at home
It's a place all of my own
In my chair I sit and dream
When it's just my chair and knee
In my chair I cozy up
It's always there, no matter what
My chair fits me to a T
I love my chair and it loves me

I love my chair and it loves me
I love my chair and it loves me

I Did It! lyrics - Meredith Brooks

One leg in, one leg out
Putting on my pants is like a web
One arm in and I just wanna shout
Cause my shirt always gets stuck around my head

Sometimes it's hard, I know you can tell (La la la, ooh)
But I, I did it, I did it all by myself (La la la, ooh)
Just when I think I might need a little help
Well, I did it all by myself

I want to pour the cereal
Sometimes these things get so out of control
It always spills more than it should
But eventually I get some in the bowl

Sometimes it's hard, I know you can tell (La la la, ooh)
But I, I did it, I did it all by myself (La la la, ooh)
Just when I think I might need a little help
Well, I did it all by myself

I did it
I put my shoes on, I did it
I cleaned my room
I closed my hair, I did it
I found my doll
I write my name, I did it
I picked out my clothes
I held my brother
I ate my veggie
I brushed my teeth
I cleaned it
I cut my hair
Oh, no

Sometimes it's hard, I know you can tell (La la la, ooh)
But I, I did it, I did it all by myself (La la la, ooh)
Just when I think I might need a little help
Well, I did it all by myself

Sometimes it's hard, I know you can tell (La la la, ooh)
But I, I did it, I did it all by myself (La la la, ooh)
Just when I think I might need a little help
Well, I did it all by myself

I did it
Bye bye

Good Morning To You lyrics - Meredith Brooks

Good morning to you
Good morning to you
It's such a wonderful day
The sun is up and waiting for you
To come outside and play

Not a cloud in the sky
No worries inside
Your friends are on their way
Good morning to you
Good morning to you
It's time to start your day

Good morning to you
Good morning to you
It's such a lovely day
The stars have gone to sleep with the moon
A million miles away

It's time to explore
Let's open the door
Running the hours away
Good morning to you
Good morning to you
It's time to start your day

It's such a wonderful day
It's such a wonderful day

Good morning to you
Good morning to you
It's such a wonderful day
The birds are up and waiting for you
Singing the morning away

Open your eyes
Stretch to the sky
The world is wide awake
Good morning to you
Good morning to you
It's time to start your day
It's time to start your day
It's time to start your day

Turn It Back Around lyrics - Meredith Brooks

It's not easy being a kid
Sometimes you can't wait till you get bit
Don't get me wrong there is plenty of fun
Even when there seems to be so many bumps
Along the way but you're not alone

You got to turn it back around
You got to jump when you fall down
You got to try and work it out
Cause it will take away the doubt
You got to turn it back around

Some things come easy, you don't even try
But just seems everything goes your way
You feel like you're flying then you don't know why you fall
But you're stronger every day
Just give it some time and I'll show you how

You got to turn it back around
You got to jump when you fall down
You got to try and work it out
Cause it will take away the doubt
You got to turn it back around
You got to jump when you fall down
You got to try and work it out
Cause it will take away the doubt

You got to turn it back around
You got to jump when you fall down
You got to try and work it out
Cause it'll take away the doubt

You got to turn it back around
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You got to turn it back around
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You got to turn it back around
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You got to turn it back around
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

To Dream Again lyrics - Meredith Brooks

When you fall asleep
All your dreams your soul will keep
When you fly over the moon
All your love will follow you

Up high through the night
All the stars will shine and light
The way back home and only then
You will awake to dream again

Up high through the night
All the stars will shine and light
The way back home and only then
You will awake to dream again

Up high through the night
All the stars will shine and light
The way back home and only then
