| 5 My Me Tree I see trees….many, many trees. But in the Land of Me, the most important tree that I see is my Me tree. For I know that I am supported from the roots to the top of my Me tree. |
4 Outside ME – Inside ME There’s outside ME, the incredible ME, the ME that likes to sing and dance and play. But there’s more to ME than the ME you see. There’s an inside ME, an invisible ME. Yes, an inside ME that you cannot see. There’s patience, honor, loyalty, imagination, creativity. It’s ever so much fun to be an inside outside ME. There’s outside ME, the incredible ME, the ME that likes to sing and dance and play. But there’s more to ME than the ME you see. There’s an inside ME, an invisible ME. Yes, an inside ME that you cannot see. There’s an inside ME, an invisible ME. Yes, an inside ME that you cannot see. |
2 My Genealogy My Mom calls herself ME. My Dad calls himself ME. My Grandmas call themselves ME. My Grandpas call themselves ME. My Great Grandmas call themselves ME. My Great Grandpas call themselves ME. These ME’S are my family. They’re my family tree. ME’S and ME’S and ME’S are my family tree. It’s fun to look in a mirror and see a ME with a family tree. It’s fun to look in the mirror and see a very happy ME at the very, very top of a very, very tall, tall tree. |
| 13 MeWe Trees (rap) I’m a Me, you’re a Me, in a land of MeWe trees. When you know you’re a Me, and I know I’m a Me, we are one and free to be….one with the MeWe tree. We are one and free to be… one with the MeWe tree. |
16 I Am Always With ME I am always with Me, every hour of the day. Energy within is the power of my life. I am always with ME, every hour of the day. My will is the part of ME that guides my thoughts and feelings. I am always with ME, I am never all alone. My heart is the part of ME that knows that I am Love. I am always with ME, I am never all alone. My mind is the part of ME that learns the meaning of life. I am always with ME, every hour of the day. My breath is the part of ME that connects with all that is. Because I’m always with ME, I am always aware of how important invisible ME is to ME. |
7 Life is Glorious Chorus: Nature goes ‘round and ‘round. The earth is a constant flow. Look at what’s easy to see. Life is one glorious show. Verse:: I don’t fly like a bird, crawl like a worm, eat like a cow, buzz like a bee, but they (bird, worm, cow and bee) are all part of ME. The birds, the cows, the bees, the clouds, the grass, the trees are Me. |
| 14 We See Trees We see trees….many, many trees. But in the Land of Me the most important trees that we see are the MeWe trees. For we know that we are the fruit that is hanging from the limbs of our MeWe trees. |
18 Nature Goes ‘Round and ‘Round CHORUS: Nature goes ‘round and ‘round. Like a circle there’s never an end. Nature is profound. Upon it we can depend. Verse 1: Night follows day. Day follows night. Rain follows sun. Sun follows rain. Trees come from seeds. Seeds come from trees. It’s that way every day. Chorus: Verse 2: Fall follows spring. Spring follows fall. Fruit follows blooms. Blooms follow fruit. Birds come from eggs. Eggs come from birds. It’s that way every day. Chorus: Verse 3: Gifts to you. Gifts to ME. Nature provides abundantly. Always we are nature’s flow. This we know. Yes, we know. |
11 Dancing Me’s Yes! I like music but it’s more than that. It’s the drum. It’s the beat of a musical cat that makes me want to laugh and shout. As my feet go dancing all about …We dance… Verse 2: Round and ‘round and ‘round I go. Dancing fast and dancing slow. Looking here and looking there….dancing Me’s everywhere…..We dance….. Verse 3: The music flows and so do we. Dancing, laughing heartily. Joyful Me’s both near and far. That’s how it is folks. Here we are. Verse 4: Wow! Our feet just don’t stand still. We dance, we dance, we dance until……..All Me’s catch the rhythm of the beat. Dancing, dancing till all hearts meet.…..We dance…… |
| 22 Dancing with the Sun As the earth goes ‘round the Sun, the Sun shines for us. We say, “Thank you big bright Sun”. Sun blinks, laughs and says, “Put your hands together and come along. Do the dance of life with ME. Dancing catches the joy of life at play. Dancing is Nature’s way. Just like a toy that’s wound, watch your feet go twirling around. You are ME energy, the energy that pumps your heart and blinks the eyes that let you see. It is ME energy that you direct. You chew your food. You go to sleep. You walk and talk. I smile and shine for you to be ME energy on earth. You are the love and joy and harmony that’s free for everyone”. Repeat. End with OH! what FUN! Twirling around. |
13 My Special Tree Me’s are here around Me, and so are trees. Whether short or tall, doesn’t matter at all. For there is a tree, a special MeTree, just for ME. |

| 23 Tick, Tock, Toot, Toot Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot Am I like a toy train a toy maker made and put on a track to run? NO! Tick – Tock – Tick – Tock – Tick – Tock – Tick. Well, am I like a clock that a clockmaker made and put on a shelf to tick? NO! I am the flow of nature, like a seed that grows from the ground. Watch what happens. Behold! As the roots take hold the roots grow deep into the ground. Then a sapling appears, and the rain comes along, and the Sun shines bright in the sky. So a year goes by and another and another and the tree stands straight and tall. Its leaves provide shade and beauty and the birds make their home in the tree. I choose a tree and call it my MeTree, for it keeps showing ME and eventually, I see my tree is not separate from ME. My tree is one with ME, one with ME, one with ME, really one with ME. Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot, Toot. |
19 Me – We Circle We are a ME – WE circle….a – circling ‘round…. a – circling ‘round. When we hear the beat, we move our feet. We circle ‘round. We circle ‘round. |

| 26 My Family Tree Trees multiply and so do Me’s. All people call themselves ME. My mom and dad had a mom and dad. All were ME’s. And their moms and dads had moms and dads. All were ME’s. My ancestors form my genealogy. That’s just a big word for a family tree. I draw and color my family tree. At the end of each branch I write the word ME, which stands for a member of my family. Each ME is related to ME. My tree is full of moms and dads. All of these people are ME’s. I look at my tree and what do I see? I see ME. ME at the top of my family tree. ME connected to lots of ME’s. I look in the mirror and what do I see? … a happy ME with a family tree. For it makes ME very happy to see that it’s taken many ME’s to be ME. I look in the mirror and what do I see? … a happy ME with a family tree. For it makes ME very happy to see that it’s taken many ME’s to be ME. It’s taken many ME’s to be ME. It’s taken many ME’s to be ME. |
