lyrics

My Day
Graeme Sacks & Erika Strydom

Verse 1
I get up at six o’clock
Brush my teeth and wash my face
Breakfast is at half past six
Catch the bus, hope I’m not late

Verse 2
School starts at seven sharp
We’re working hard ‘till half past ten
Grab your lunch box lets go play
‘Till we start our class again

Chorus
Sixty, Sixty
Seconds in a minute, minute, minute
Counting, counting,
Seconds in a minute, minute, minute
(X2)

Verse 3
School was fun it’s time to go
Catch the bus at one fifteen
Mom is waiting with some lunch
Wash my hands so they are clean

Verse 4
Homework time at three o’clock
Reading books and doing sums
Five o’clock go out to play
Wait for daddy, here he comes!

Chorus
Sixty, Sixty
Minutes in an hour, hour, hour
Counting, counting
Minutes in an hour, hour, hour
(X2)

Verse 5
Supper time at half past six
We all sit down to eat our food
I help mom with washing up
I still have a lot to do

Verse 6
Bath time is at eight o’clock
Almost time to go to sleep
Dad reads from my favourite book
I close my eyes and count the sheep

Chorus
Sixty, Sixty
Seconds in a minute, minute, minute
Counting, counting,
Seconds in a minute, minute, minute
Sixty, Sixty
Minutes in an hour, hour, hour
Counting, counting
Minutes in an hour, hour, hour
Kids shout: “Twenty four hours in my day!”
