about

This song was created during a Monty Harper songwriting residency at Will Rogers Elementary School in Stillwater, Oklahoma, Fall 2013.

lyrics

Wake up homies, don't be lazy,
Go outside, and just go crazy,
Turn off your gameboy, smell the daisies
Come feel the sun shine, It'll be amazing
Just like an Ally Oop

Let's get some sunshine
Let's breathe the trees
Let's play outside
Get dirt on our knees

Grab a blanket, We’re going to the park
Gonna see the people, Gonna hear the dogs bark
Let’s pick some apples, In the picnic zone
Now isn’t this better than sitting at home?

Let's smell the flowers
Let's taste the breeze
Let's get some sunshine
Let's breathe the trees

Let’s get some exercise, go for a swim
Ride our bikes to the pool and dive right in
Throw a Frisbee, climb a tree
Now isn’t this better than watching TV?

Let's get some sunshine
Let's breathe the trees
Let's play outside
Get dirt on our knees
Let's smell the flowers
Let's taste the breeze
Let's get some sunshine
Let's breathe the trees

Don't be a gnome just sitting at home
Come on outside with me!
