Lyrics

🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵

When we do it together, we all do it better!

When we do it ourselves, we do just fine
But when we do it together, it’s yours and mine
Because we’re greater than the sum of our parts
It takes our mind and it takes our hearts

Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work

When we do it together
We all do it better
When we work as a team
We live the dream
We live the dream

When we do it together
We all do it better
When we work as a team
We live the dream
Live the dream

Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work
Teamwork makes the dream work

  • I’m a Little Teapot!

    Your kids already know the words. They’ve been doing the handle-and-spout dance since daycare. So we took “I’m a Little Teapot” and flipped it to a hip hop bop it’s been waiting for. We kept the classic verses and added on our spin about heating up water for mommies and daddies, and how a fresh cup of tea helps us parents! Let’s be real, sometimes a teapot song is for the grown-ups too.

  • You’re a Big Man!

    An experimental jazz track sampling and remixing an improvised acapella recording, incorporating horns and a live jazzy feel to a lighthearted melody about my son growing up. “You’re a Big Man!” started as a simple voice memo ( a proud dad moment caught on tape ) and evolved into a horn-driven, jazz-flavored celebration of watching your little one hit those big milestones.

  • Sorry Mommy (I Made a Mess)

    Every parent knows the scene: you just tidied up, turned around for one second, and your toddler has redecorated the entire room with blocks, trains, and dinosaurs. “Sorry Mommy (I Made a Mess)” captures that moment perfectly, the parenting experience told from the kid’s point of view. My three year old actually said “I’m sorry mommy, I made a mess” and I knew there was a song there!

  • Big ol’ Truck!

    There’s no explaining it — your kid sees a truck and the whole world stops. Doesn’t matter if it’s a dump truck, a fire engine, or just a normal pickup. “Big ol’ Truck!” captures that pure, unfiltered hype that only a kid standing on the sidewalk pointing at heavy machinery can produce. Oh wow oh man! Inspired by a real quote from my son when he was 2.

  • Mac and Cheese!

    “Mac and Cheese!” is an ode to the one meal that never gets turned down! After time and time again trying to make something nice for my kids for dinner, we’ve come to realize if there’s mac and cheese, it’s gonna be a winner.
