LYRICS - The Octopus Song One day as I was walking Briskly by the sea I saw a baby octopus Looking up at me I smiled and said "Good day, my friend! What brings you up this way?" That’s when that baby octopus Sat up so it could say ... 
 Thibp! Is the sound it made just then Thibp! Thibp! Is the sound it made again Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Is what that baby said Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! And now that’s in my head When the octopus had finished I did a little bow saying, “Thank you for the lovely talk, I must be going now.” That’s when the baby’s mummy Swam out of the sea She hugged her little baby Then she turned and said to me ... Thibp! Is the sound it made just then Thibp! Thibp! Is the sound it made again Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Is what that mummy said Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! And now that’s in my head When both those friendly octopi Said all they’d had to say I waved goodbye and started Back along my merry way But just as I was leaving And this I must discuss I turned around because they’d found The daddy octopus! Thibp! Is the sound it made just then Thibp! Thibp! Is the sound it made again Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Is what that daddy said Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! And now that’s in my head So I said ... Thibp! That’s the sound I made just then Thibp! Thibp! That’s the sound I made again Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Is what I’d gone and said Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! Thibp! And now that’s in your head! Thibp! © Chris Lam Sam 2020

The Zero Zoo 03:59
LYRICS - The Zero Zoo CHORUS Let’s all go to The Zero Zoo! The Zero Zoo! The Zero Zoo! Follow me and let’s go see NONE of every animal! We’re your friendly Zookeepers Welcome and hello! (Hello!) Sadly all our animals Escaped some time ago (Boohoo) That is why we call this place The famous Zero Zoo! There’s none of every animal On display for you! And just in case you’re thinking That we Zookeepers look funny — I am not a crocodile ...
 And I am not a bunny! Heehee! I’m no tiger ... I’m no bear ...
 I’m no zebra ... I’m no deer ...
 And I may look like an elephant But that is quite irrelevant! CHORUS If you’re hoping you will spot A funny little monkey You will see not four, not three Not two, not one, but none — see? Can you spy our lions? They’re never ones to hide That’s because they’re missing And there’s simply none inside! CHORUS This is where we used to keep Our tortoises each day
 And this is where snakes were kept Before they snuck away - hiss! 
 Come and take a photo of our Friendly polar bear! She won’t smile and wave at you Because I’m not in there!
 
 I mean she! She! She! Not me! I...I...I’ve never met her! Shhhh! This is our nocturnal house For creatures of the night Our vanished bats and kiwi birds Are truly out of sight! Please don't feed the animals We feed them twice a day! Thankfully they don’t eat much Because they’ve gone away! So ... CHORUS 
 Oh
 ... Let’s all go to The Zero Zoo! The Zero Zoo! The Zero Zoo! Follow me and let’s go see NONE ... ... but maybe some ... ... OF EVERY ANIMAL! © Chris Lam Sam 2020

Questions 03:43
LYRICS - Questions This is song for children everywhere It’s full of questions with answers They may like to hear, like - Is a hotdog a sandwich? Is coffee a soup? And how is a bunch of grapes not called a group? Questions with answers to find This is song for children everywhere It’s full of questions with answers They may like to hear, like - How long’s a moment? Can butterflies see stars? And how long would driving to space take in cars? Is fog just a cloud that has fallen asleep? And what is the favourite music of sheep? Questions with answers to find Can fish live trees? Does honey make bees? Do chickens have knees? Do chickens have knees? Do chickens have knees? Well, do they? This is song for children everywhere It’s full of questions with answers They may like to hear, like - Are turtles magnetic? Do rocks all have names? Do camouflaged creatures play hide and seek games? Are toasters just roasters? Can bats chat to dogs? And what is the top running speed of hedgehogs? How old are raindrops? Do jellyfish feel brave? Is sea water greeting us with every wave? Questions with answers to find This is song for children everywhere It’s full of questions with answers They may like to hear, like - Who’s the Prime Minister of the moon? And how come the dinosaurs left us so soon? Finally just before I say goodbye The ultimate question is ... ... why? Why, why, why, why ... Just because © Chris Lam Sam 2020
