Shout It Out

(John McGie/Carl Craig)


One time when I inadvertently played an audio tape back at the wrong speed my daughter, who was six at the time, informed me that the voice on the tape was Jordan the Ant. And, thus, Jordan the Ant was born.
SHOUT IT OUT

Shout it out
Say your mind
Shout it out
Leave it all behind

Floss every day
Put your messes away
Be in bed by 8
Mow the lawn
Sing happy songs
Never never be late

Eat bran and fruit
Try not to pollute
Wash behind your neck
Dress nice and warm
When out in a storm
Never say the word "heck"

CHORUS

Keep water in the tub
When you rub a dub dub
It's the same when you wash in the sink
Sit for every meal
Say "thanks" and "excuse me"
Because . . . well, what do you think?

Save all your money
For days that aren't sunny
Help out when you can
Speak kindly of others
We're all sisters and brothers
We're one big fam . . . ily

CHORUS
