Klondike Polka
by Danylo Fedoryka
Stuck up in the Yukon, looking’ for some gold
No one ever told me that it would be so cold
How I even got here, I don’t even know
And why are those two penguins dancing in the snow
“Well howdy there pardner” said a little man
With a great big flowing beard and a fiddle in his hand
Those penguins there are smarter than Lee Ioacoca
If you wanna stay warm up here you dance the Klondike Polka
Now you need a partner, go and don’t be shy
Grab yourself that Grizzly with a twinkle in his eye
If you want to stay warm never tango with a moose
My old lady always says polka with a goose
Hands are always clapping when you’re with a seal
Dancing with a wolf, he might think that you’re his meal
All this spinnin’, dancin’, clappin’ that will keep you warm
Aren’t you glad that you can dance the Klondike Polka!

Oh The Sun
by Catie Parker
There once was a young girl sitting on a park bench smiling at the sun
The sun smiled back at her and said, "stay your happy self precious one."
Said the girl to the sky "how could I ever cry without your rays."
Well the sun he sighed, oh young girl, have you ever known a cloudy day?"
And she sang Lalalalalalala lalalala, I love this life
Lalalalalalala lalalala, Oh the sun makes me shine bright
All throughout her town, the young girl sang her song of love and glee
"Well this life is so beautiful and I'm just so happy being me"
The townspeople heard her song and some, they smiled while others quietly disagreed
But there was one so mean and bitter that he felt it was his job to make her see
So he called up his friends, they were dark and gray
And they filled up the sky for days and days
And the young girl felt cold for the very first time
She cried "Sun do you still love me? Why don't you still shine?"
Lalalalalalala lalalala, came a muffled voice
"My light is inside of you, you can hide or let it shine. That's your choice!"
And she sang Lalalalalalala lalalala, I love this life
Lalalalalalala lalalala, Oh the sun makes me shine bright
Lalalalalalala la lalalalalala
Lalalalalalala la lalalalalala
And she sang Lalalalalalala lalalala, I love this life
Lalalalalalala lalalala, Oh the sun makes me shine bright
Oh the sun makes me shine bright

Rainy Days
by Danylo Fedoryka, Josephina & Juliana Cuddeback
Rainy days are never sad
as long as i know we can be together
rainy days are never sad
as long as i can spend them with you
Run upstairs and get the pillows, we can build a fort
Grab the colored pencils, we can color in a book
Now let's go play hide and seek, It's your turn to be it
I've got the perfect hiding spot, If only I can fit
Let's look out the window, We can count the drops of rain
Shiny little rainbows, Running down the window pane
Hear the kettle whistle, We can fix a cup of tea
Snuggle on the couch, Read a book just you and me
Oh sure, I love when days are fine
Collecting bugs and flowers in the fields
And rainy days can get me down
But when you're here it's always fun,
Even when there is no sun

Cookies in the Jar
lyrics by Danylo & Alexander Fedoryka
As I was going over the Cotton Candy Mountains
I met with Captain Farrell and his cookies he was countin'
I first produced me sling-shot and then me blue light-saber
Said: "Stand and deliver" for I am a scary pirate
I counted out his candy and it made a pretty penny
I put it in me pockets and brought it home to Mommy
She said and she swore that she never would deceive me
But she took me to the Dentist and he took away my candy
I went up to my bedroom all for to take a slumber
I dreamt of Tootsie Rolls and for sure it was no wonder
But Mommy cleaned my room and she found me stash of candy
And sent for Captain Farrell to be ready for the spanking
'Twas early in the morning as I rose up for travel
Out jumped a band of robbers and likewise Captain Farrell
I first produced my sling-shot for he stole my blue light saber
But I couldn't shoot the pebble so a prisoner I was taken
Now if anyone can save me its me brother in the tree-house
If he could find me candy I would give him half for payment
And when he comes to get me we’ll go get chocolate milk shakes
And I swear he’ll treat me better than that devil of a dentist

Lily of the Valley
by Catie Parker
You are the Lily of the Valley
Too many people will pass and oversee
They'll be too busy trying to find the highest peak
They'll only miss out on your beauty
You are a rose stripped of it's thorns love
And through your gentleness is born love
That happy crooked grin it shines
Brighter than the whitest, picture-perfect smile
I think I'm learning
I think I finally see what true love really means
You gave that to me
I hope you really understand now
So when it's foggy you can send away the clouds
And bearing your light bravely, show the world the blessing that you are
Because you are
I think I'm learning
I think I finally see what true love really means
You gave that to me

Keys to the Kingdom

I've got the keys to the kingdom,
the world can't do me no harm
Go Gabriel get the trumpet,
move on down to the sea
Don't you sound that trumpet,
till you hear from me
Take ol' John on the Island,
place him in a kettle of oil
Then the angels came from heaven down,
told him that the oil wouldn't boil
Take ol' Paul and Silas,
place 'em in jail below
Then the angels came from heaven down
and unlocked that prison house door
When I get in trouble,
I know I done no crime
Wake up central in Glory,
and Jesus come to the phone
I've got the keys in my bosom
I carry it wherever i go
I've got the keys in my bosom
The world can't do me no harm

Hound Dogs
Lyrics by Danylo Fedoryka
You left me standin’ on the porch
Wonderin’ where you've been
I traveled the world around
Now look at the state I'm in
And the hound dawgs was singin’
And the hound dawgs was singin‘
And the hound dawgs was singin’
Aww, singin‘ the blues
I hear whispers on the breeze
Saying that you're really gone
It so hard to believe
and the reason I'm singing this song
Coyotes howlin’ at the moon
Wanderin’ in the night
Singin’ a mournful tune
They’re cryin’ cause my heart ain’t right

Castaway, castaway trust in your star
You know I will find you wherever you are
Though your dreams may be tossed by the tide
Cling to your hopes, never cast them aside
Castaway, castaway though you may be
Lost in your wilderness over the sea
I will discover your castaway shore
You'll be a castaway no more
You'll be a castaway no more
