Spoken: Ah, there they are, sunglasses. Wow, this is gonna be great! A whole day in the park with my friends. Let's see, ummm, flashlight, for looking into dark places. Yeah, in it goes. Let's see, a dictionary, yeah, in case I want to look up some words while I'm there. Boy, you know, it was a lot easier going to the park when I was little, my Mom pushed me in a baby carriage.



Sung: Things have changed

Since the days when I crawled on floors

Wearing diapers in my drawers

And my Mom took me out-of-doors

Now I know

If I'm planning a trip somewhere

And I'll be very far from home

I prepare myself with care



Binoculars to look for birdies

And soap for when I get the dirties

My parka goes

In case it snows

My book and shovel, map and whistle too

I can't say yet that this'll do

No, I can't doze

'Cause everything goes



I'm taking my tent today

And my hat today

And my boots today

My canteen today

Something green today

And I'll know today

I'm prepared for any woes

So 'though it's not a great adventure

You'll say that I certainly went sure

I was on my toes

Everything goes



Well, that's everything

Brave as I am I'd hate to rough it

So, I'll take my pack and stuff it

Goodness knows

Everything goes

Yes, I would rather seem a worrier

Than be a thoughtless hurrier

The idea grows

Everything goes



I'm gonna be glad today

And not sad today

And not wish today

That I'd stayed today

In the house today

And I'll know today

I'm prepared for any woes

So 'though it's not a great adventure

You'll say that I certainly went sure

I was on my toes

Everything goes
