Who could it be, could it be, could it be knocking, knocking, knocking?

Who could it be, could it be, could it be knocking, knocking, knocking?
Who could it be at the kitchen door?
Who could it be, could it be knocking, knocking, knocking?
Who could it be, could it be, could it be this time?
Who could it be, could it be, could it be knocking, knocking, knocking?
Who could it be, could it be at the kitchen door?
Kitchen door
We've been waiting for this
We've been waiting for
Shimmer shimmer shimmering
Shimmer shimmer shimmering
Who could it be, could it be knocking, knocking, knocking?
Who could it be at the kitchen door?
At the kitchen door
The Muses, of course

Day and Night (from the Faerie Workshop)
Day and night and
Working day and night and day
To build this for you
Faeries, they've been, they've been working hard on this for you
Day and night and day
To build, sweetness, this for you
The faeries, they they've been working hard on this
Day and night and night and day, sweetness
To build this magic for you
Faeries, they've been, they've been working hard on this
Night and day on this
To build this for you, sweetness
The faeries, they've been working very hard on this
Day and night and day
This is the alien muse for you
Faeries, they've been working, working hard on this
Day and night and night and day
To build this for you
Magic piano
From the faerie workshop
Cling clang
Nope, it doesn't stop
Racing around
Around the clock
To build this magic piano
Cling clang
Bling blang
A-blendy-blong
Cartwheel
Into a somersault
Jingle jangle
Plink plonk
De-plinky plonk
Flippy flop
Fluttering
Day and night and
Working day and night to build
This magic piano
Candy pink piano
That the faeries made for you
Candy pink piano
She can fly
And she can float
Day and night and day
Working day and night and day
To build this for you
Faeries, they've been, they've been working hard on this for you
Day and night and day
To build, sweetness, this for you
The faeries, they they've been working hard on this
Day and night and night and day, sweetness
To build this magic for you
Faeries, they've been, they've been working hard on this
Night and day on this
To build this for you, sweetness
The faeries, they've been working very hard on this
Day and night and day
This is the alien muse for you
Faeries, they've been working, working hard on this
Day and night and night and day

Let yourself find how clouds can taste

Soon we can touch the moon

Insect Ballet
On a balmy night
In a dawn-lit forest
Everywhere you'll find
Chirping and singing
As the damselflies and the dragonflies take to the sky
Flying up and down
Flying backwards and forward
At forty-five miles per hour
Go the damselflies and the dragonflies
So it seems
Synchronicity
A company of bugs dancing
As the damselflies and the dragonflies take to the sky
Through a marshy haze
Beetles make
Make their way to a gathering
As the eagles fly and the hawks spy above them
With a jump
Hoppers hop
Crickets chirp
Calling all to the stage
And the damselflies and the dragonflies make their way
Calling, calling
Calling, calling
Calling all dancing bugs to the stage
Here we are
Here we are
Slide
Here we are, here we are
At the Insect Ballet
Here we are, here we are
Slide
Plié
Here we are
At the Insect Ballet
Half a turn
To glide
To throw
Step of the cat
Pas de chat
Here we are, here we are
Slide
Here we are, here we are
At the Insect Ballet
Half a turn
To glide
To throw
Step of the cat
Pas de chat
Here we are, here we are
Slide
Scissor-like
To spring
To change
At the Insect Ballet
Plié
Here we are
At the Insect Ballet
Half a turn
To glide
To throw
Step of the cat
Pas de chat
Here we are, here we are

Anna's Bakery
Anna is baking cakes
At the family market stall
Flour jumps right off the shelf
Pours itself into the bowl
Dash of nutmeg with a pinch of cinnamon
Magic topping
A tangy lemon zest
Sprinkle in poppy seeds
Anna makes cupcakes
At the family market stall
Red velvet is the base
For the best cupcake of all
Cupcake of all
Pink peppermint with marshmallow
I have never known such a perfect pink
Perfect pink
Icing dream

Spike's Lament
Take you back to, take you back to
A time when you were one with the waves
Take you back to when having fun
Beat winning them trophies every day
Take you back to, take you back to
When you could hear the ocean blue
Take you back to when she would say
"Soon a storm will be on her way"
Something's missing
Something is missing
Like the joy in your eyes
Read the signs
You could read the tides
On eastern winds
The surf's gonna rise, rise, rise
Take you back to, take you back to
A time when you were one with the waves
Take you back to when having fun
Beat winning them trophies every day
Take you back to, take you back to
When you could hear the ocean blue
Take you back to when she would say
"A southern breeze will be on her way"
Take you back to when she would say
"A southern breeze will be on her way
A southern breeze will be on her way"
A time when you were one with the waves
Take you back to when having fun
Beat winning them trophies every day
Take you back to, take you back to
When you could hear the ocean blue
Take you back to when she would say
"Soon a storm will be on her way"
Something's missing
Something is missing
Like the joy in your eyes
Read the signs
You could read the tides
On eastern winds
The surf's gonna rise, rise, rise
Take you back to, take you back to
A time when you were one with the waves
Take you back to when having fun
Beat winning them trophies every day
Take you back to, take you back to
When you could hear the ocean blue
Take you back to when she would say
"A southern breeze will be on her way"
Take you back to when she would say
"A southern breeze will be on her way
A southern breeze will be on her way"

Rain Brings Change
Nice umbrella for the piano
Pitter Patter running from the cold

S'Magic Day
So the way things started today
I wasn't really really sure it could turn out this way
And I guess it is fair to say
I can be S'cited
Scared and Excited
But now we've all turned the page
It's a S'Magic

Fantabulous-tastic
It's a S'Magic

Just a S'Magic Day
Anna was baking
Scrumpdileicious
Magic Cupcakes
Blake had his box of
Bugs that were Dancing
An Insect Ballet

Then I thought that
Spike wouldn't find his Muses
Well, I guess not today
And then the rains chased me back home
Now Dad has found his
Numbers are Muses
