Get Your Kicks (On Route 66)
Well if you ever plan to motor west
Just take my way that's the highway that's the best
Get your kicks on Route 66.
Well it winds from Chicago to L.A.
More than 2000 miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66
Well, goes from St. Louie down to Missouri
Oklahoma city looks oh so pretty
You'll see Amarillo and Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona don't forget Winona
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino
Would you get hip to this kindly tip
And go take that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66!

Under My Bed
There's a monster under my bed.
It plays loud music and dances around late at night.
That damn boogieman.
