Phil: A little boy eight years old
|
In a semi-circle, eyes aglow
|
Our teacher told us stories every day
|
Kenny: Huck Finn on the Mississippi
|
Fire breathin' dragons
|
With my friends with me
|
From our homeroom to the Milky Way
|
We were lost among the pages
|
And in the voice of Mrs.Davis, she said
|
|
Words are your wheels
|
To take you anywhere you feel
|
Phil: Where you can laugh or you can cry
|
And let your imagination fly
|
Let it lead you where it will
|
Sara: Your mind is an automobile
|
And words are your wheels
|
|
Phil There's an old man with all he's done
|
In his 98 laps around the sun
|
Somehow he never learned to read or write
|
B&D: And there's a kind soul who's had the pleasure
|
Of helping him tie the words together
|
It's never too late to change a life
|
Now there's a smile on his face
|
And there's a young heart standing in his place
|
|
Words are your wheels
|
To take you anywhere you feel
|
Where you can laugh or you can cry
|
Let your imagination fly
|
Let it lead you where it will
|
Your mind is an automobile
|
And words are your wheels
|
|
Martina:Don't need a rocketship, no red balloon to take a trip
|
The pages on your fingertips alone
|
Will take you where you want to go
|
Phil: Words are you wheels
|
|
Words are your wheels
|
To take you anywhere you feel
|
Where you can laugh and you can cry
|
Let your imagination fly
|
Let it take you where it will
|
Sara: Your mind is an automobile
|
And words are your wheels
|
|
Phil: Words are you wheels
|
Sara: Words are you wheels
|
Phil: Words are your wheels
|
Sara: Oh,words are your wheels
