The second star to the right (Fain / Cahn)

The second star to the right
shines in the night for you
to tell you that the dreams you plan
really can come true

The second star to the right
shines with a light so rare
and if it's Never Land you need
its light will lead you there

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
so we'll know where you are
gleaming in the skies above
lead us to the land we dream of

And when our journey is through
each time we say "good night"
we'll thank the little star that shines
the second from the right

You can fly, you can fly, you can fly (Fain / Cahn)

Think of a wonderful thought
any merry little thought
think of Christmas, think of snow
think of sleigh bells, of you go
like reindeer in the sky
you can fly, you can fly ,you can fly

Think of the happiest things
it's the same as having wings
take the path that moonbeams make
if the moon is still awake
you'll see him wink his eye
you can fly, you can fly, you can fly

Up you go with a heigh and ho
to the stars beyond the blue
there's a Never Land waiting for you
where all your happy dreams come true
every dream that you dream will come true

When there's a smile in your heart
there's no better time to start
think of all the joy you'll find
when you leave the world behind
and bid your cares good-bye
you can fly, you can fly

you can fly, you can fly, you can fly

When there's a smile in your heart
there's no better time to start
think of all the joy you'll find
when you leave the world behind
and bid your cares good-bye
you can fly, you can fly

you can fly, you can fly
you can fly, you can fly
you can fly, you can fly

Finale:
When there's a smile in your heart
there's no better time to start
think of all the joy you'll find
when you leave the world behind
and bid your cares good-bye
you can fly, you can fly, you can fly

A pirate's life (Wallace / Penner)

Ohh, a pirate's life is a wonderful life
a-rovin' over the sea
give me a career as a buccaneer
it's the life of a pirate for me
ohh, the life of a pirate for me

Ohh, a pirate's life is a wonderful life
they never bury yer bones
but when it's all over
a jolly sea rover
drops in on his friend Davy Jones
ohh, his very good friend Davy Jones

(Song of the soon-be-killed pirate)
A pirate's life is a wonderful l-life
you'll find adventure and sport
but live every minute| or all that is in it
the life of a pirate is short
oh, the life ... BANG [dead]

Following the leader (Wallace / Sears / Hibler)

Following the leader, the leader, the leader
we're following the leader wherever he may go
tee dum, tee dee, a teedle ee do tee dum
tee dum, tee de, it's part of the game we play
tee dum, tee dee, the words are easy to say
just a teedle ee dum a tedle ee do tee day

Tee dum, tee dee, a teedle ee do tee dum
we're one for all and all of us out for fun
we march, in line, and follow the other one
with a teedle ee do a teedle ee do tee dum

Following the leader, the leader, the leader
we're following the leader wherever he may go
we're out to fight the Injuns, the Injuns, the Injuns
we're out to fight the Injuns because he told us so

Tee dum, tee dee, a teedle ee do teee day
we march along and these are the words we say
tee dum, tee dee, a teedle dee deedle dee ay
oh, a teedle ee dum, a teedle ee do tee day
oh, a teedle ee dum, a teedle ee do tee day

What made the red man red ? (Fain / Cahn)

Hana mana ganda .... (cont. through the whole song)

Why does he ask you "how" ?
why does he ask you "how" ?
once the Injun didn't know
all the things that he know now
but the Injun he sure learn a lot
and it's all from asking "how"

Hana mana ganda, we translate for you
hana means what mana means
and ganda means that too

When did he first say "ugh" ?
when did he first say "ugh" ?
in the Injun book it say
when the first brave married squaw
he gave out with heap big ugh
when he saw his mother-in-law

What made the red man red ?
what made the red man red ?
let's go back a million years
to the very first Injun prince
he kissed a maid and start to blush
and we all been blushin' since

You've got it from the headman
the real true story of the red man
no matter what's been written or said
now you know why the red man's red

Your mother and mine (Fain / Cahn)

(spoken:) Well, a mother, a real mother
is the most wonderful person in the world

she's the angel voice that bids you good night
kisses your cheed, whisper "sleep tight"

Your mother and mine
your mother and mine

The helping hand that guides you along
whether you're right, whether you're wrong

your mother and mine
your mother and mine

What makes mothers all that they are
might as well ask "what makes a star ?"

Ask your heart to tell you her worth
your heart will say "heaven on earth"
another word for divine
your mother and mine
