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

  • Little Bird!

    There’s something special about watching a little bird hop around in a tree. Happy, wild, free, doing a little wiggle and fluffing its feathers. It just clicks with kids! “Little Bird!” captures that wide-eyed wonder. We wrote this one outside of daycare right after dropoff, it has a special place in our hearts!

  • Pop! Goes the Weasel

    This classic nursery rhyme updated for the modern day! Our remix of “Pop! Goes the Weasel” flips the classic melody your kids already love with a brand new story: the monkey didn’t mean any harm, but the weasel wasn’t having fun, and now they’ve got to talk it out! It’s playground conflict resolution set to a beat, and it lands better than any lecture ever could.

  • Schmutz!

    There’s always something on their face. You don’t know what it is, or how it got there, but it needs to come off before we meet the grandparents! “Schmutz!” is a love letter to that universal parent move — the lick-the-thumb wipe, the sleeve grab, the “hold still for one second” that never actually takes one second. Sometimes it’s crusty, sometimes it’s soft, and it’s always the most embarrassing moment.

  • 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!

  • Time to Take a Nap

    Nap time isn’t just for kids — it’s a survival strategy for the whole house. “Time to Take a Nap” is the original nap anthem, and it keeps it real: naptime makes everything better! And yeah, we’d nap too if we didn’t have cleanup to do.
