I’m off to school today, I’m gonna listen, learn and play. Every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, you see, It’s off to school for me. You can bring a lunch from home, or buy it at school, Don’t forget your bookbag, whatever you do. You can get there in a school bus, or ride in a car, You can walk if the school is not too far. CHORUS You can learn about science, math, and reading too, Music, art, and gym class, there’s so much to do. And when it’s time to go home, when the day is done, Tell your teacher “thank you” for all of the fun. CHORUS

If you’re a boy, or you’re a girl, Then you should know that we’re all equal. There are certain things about us that are different, it’s true, But our rights are the same, for both me and you. Girls can wear pants, boys can too. Boys can wear hats, girls can too. Girls can wear sandals, boys can too. Boys can wear sneakers, girls can too. There are certain things about us that are different, it’s true, But our rights are the same, both me and you. Girls can be teachers, boys can too. Boys can be pilots, girls can too. Girls can be doctors, boys can too. Boys can be nurses, girls can too. There are certain things about us that are different, it’s true, But our rights are the same, both me and you. Girls can go to school, boys can too. Boys can go to work, girls can too. Girls can cast a vote, boys can too. Boys can cook dinner, girls can too. There are certain things about us that are different, it’s true, But our rights are the same, both me and you. If you’re a boy, or you’re a girl, Then you should know that we’re all equal. There are certain things about us that are different, it’s true, But our rights are the same, for both me and you.

I see all kinds of people, everywhere I go. Some of them are new, and some of them I know. I've learned about the kinds of things each person does for me, So let me tell you all about the people that I see. Police officers keep me safe, they usually dress in blue. Firefighters wear red, and they protect me too. When I am in trouble, they are the ones to call. These are the people who help me, they look out for us all. CHORUS Teachers help me learn things, like how to read a book, Math and science, spelling too, and even how to cook. My principal and friends are other people at my school, Where I have fun and work hard, 'cause being smart is cool. CHORUS Doctors are the people who keep my body strong, I see them for my check-up, and when something is wrong. The dentist cleans my teeth, and keeps cavities away, By showing me how to brush and floss them everyday. CHORUS

When it’s time to go to school, This is what you gotta do: Get, get, get on the bus! Once you are inside, You’re gonna take a ride: Get, get, get on the bus! Snap your fingers, tap your feet, While you’re cruisin’ down the street, In that yellow bus. When you get to school, This is what you gotta do: Get, get, get off the bus! To your class is where you’ll go, This you already know: Get, get, get off the bus! Snap your fingers, tap your feet, Your day is gonna be sweet, Once you’re off that yellow bus. When school is through, This is what you gotta do: Get, get, get on the bus! Once you are inside, You’re gonna take a ride: Get, get, get on the bus! Snap your fingers, tap your feet, While you’re cruisin’ down the street, In that yellow bus. When you’re home from school, This is what you gotta do: Get, get, get off the bus! In your house is where you’ll go, This you already know: Get, get, get off the bus! Snap your fingers, tap your feet, Your afternoon will be sweet, Once you’re off that yellow bus.

The world is full of people, Some you'll know and some you won't. I wanna tell you 'bout three Kinds of people you see, Some you can go with, some you don't. A safe side adult is a person that you know. With a safe side adult it's okay to go. Because it's your grandma, grandpa, mom or dad, Or someone that you've been told: Is a safe side adult, a person you know, With whom it's okay to go. There are also people that you kind of know. With those people you shouldn't go, Unless a safe side adult has told you for sure, That a person, specifically, Is someone you can trust and know, With whom it's okay to go. A stranger is a person that you don't know. With a stranger you should never go. Because it's someone that you've never seen before, Or someone that you've been told, Is a stranger, a person you don't know, With whom you should not go. The world is full of people, Some you'll know and some you won't. I told you 'bout three Kinds of people you see, Some you can go with, some you don't.
