lyrics

I like dogs and you like cats
I like shoes and you like hats
I like red and you like blue
You like me and I like you

You tell jokes and get funny looks
You like sports and I like books
I like the night and you like the day
You can be different, that's okay

Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
And that's just how you do

I like salad but you like steak
You like to grill but I like to bake
you like tacos I like burritos
you like cheetos I like doritos

You might wear glasses to help you see
You might be smarter and stronger than me
You might have freckles you might be tall
That's okay because I like it all

(sing along)
Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
And that's just how you do

You are special in your own way
(slow) You should be proud that you can say

Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
Jibber Jabber Joo You Are You
And that's just how you do
(slow) And that's just how you do

Oh, yeah!
