Countdown Lyrics

Sixty Stories Countdown

Don't go to sleep.
There is a story I would like to tell you
About a girl who went to the zoo one sunny afternoon.
And she saw animals in homes that weren't their own.
So she thought, "I will set them free and we will run away."

So she packed her things and built a rocket ship with room for a few.
Then she said "Hey who would like to come? I am going to the moon."

So they came: an elephant and a couple of baboons.
And they made a list of things that they would need on the moon:

Oxygen, snacks, drinks and a couple things to read.
Then they called their moms and launched at dawn.
That's where the story ends.

So, go to sleep.
