Lyrics
The Encyclopedia Salesman: (singing) La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La

Songs, are around whenever you need them (That's right!) Songs, follow you wherever you lead them Songs, they seem to come alive each time you sing 'em Songs, you can play them straight or you can swing 'em

Songs, don't know how we'd get on without them Songs, you can hum them, whistle or shout them Songs can keep you company when you're alone So find a song and you'll be halfway home You can't go wrong So believe in a song

(spoken) Okay, everybody. The Encyclopedia Salesman wants you to sing with him. Come on!

The Encyclopedia Salesman and The Kids: They get you hummin' You start a strummin' Just keep 'em comin' They get you goin' You snap your fingers The music lingers You get some singers To make a showin'

Words and music blending Send you dancing in all the aisles Songs can bring you memories Of good times, big smiles

The band is jumpin' The music's thumpin' It's really somethin' They hit the ceiling A hot piano, a high soprano Do what they can for a happy feeling

Songs bring you up when you're down Songs are the best friends around They're worth singin' about All you need is a song

The Encyclopedia Salesman: La La La La La La La La La La

Okay, now let's put Both parts together

The Kids: The band is jumpin' The music's thumpin' It's really somethin' They hit the ceiling
