We're Going to the Library

This song is also available on Marsha and the Positrons award winning album Energetic.

We’re going to the library, adventure awaits inside
Stories will take us round the world; let’s go on a wild ride
Working our way from A to Z; through every age of history
Words on the pages come to life — imagination’s our guide

You can select a mystery (select a mystery)
A series 'bout a magic tree ('bout a magic tree)
Detectives searching for a clue (searching for a clue)
If that appeals to you (that appeals to me -- wow)

Maybe you're fond of fairytales (I love fairytales)
Nonﬁction regarding sharks and whales (You know I love my sharks and whales)
Short stories, fables, poetry (Love to read poetry)
It all sounds good to me (sounds good to me)!

I know that the librarians will always help me out
And if you want to make ‘em happy, please don’t be too loud
Bet you can ﬁnd a cozy nook, to sit on down and read your book Just remember to check it out, so they’ll know you’re not a crook!
(Don’t be one of them book stealin’ crooks…)

You can select a mystery (select a mystery)
A series 'bout a magic tree ('bout a magic tree)
Detectives searching for a clue (searching for a clue)
If that appeals to you (that appeals to me -- wow)

Maybe you're fond of fairytales (I love fairytales)
Nonﬁction regarding sharks and whales (You know I love my sharks and whales)
Short stories, fables, poetry (Love to read poetry)
It all sounds good to me (sounds good to me)!

When you go to the library, you’ll ﬁnd some solitude
Seeing everyone studying, get’s you in a learning mood
Walking down those book corridors, you’ll ﬁnd new topics to explore
So, let’s go to the library, let’s discover new books

Yeah, let’s ﬁnd ourselves some new books
Oh, I’m gonna ﬁnd me some books
And, I’m gonna check out those books!
(Wait — did I forget my library card?
Maybe they can look me up in the computer…
Oh — there it is!)
