Lyrics
I Like To Know
Monday's gym and I start school
Tuesday we do art
Storytime, then counting to do
See I'm getting very smart.
I like to know
I don't like surprises
I like to know what's been planned
Tell me before so
I don't get scared
I like it when I understand.
Wednesday comes, we sing and clap
I could sing all day
After lunch we take our nap
Then we go outside to play.
I like to know
I don't like surprises
I like to know what's been planned
Tell me before so
I don't get scared
I like it when I understand.
Please remember to
show me what to do...
Thursday is computer time
Friday I see friends
On the weekend, family drops by
Then I do it all again.
I like to know
I don't like surprises
I like to know what's been planned
Tell me before so
I don't get scared
I like it when I understand.
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum
I like it when I understand.
