Lyrics[]
Can you tell me where you saw Wooly?
Is he behind this bush, this tree, or under this bo-?
Wha-, what?
Wait, stop! I thought we were gonna play tag
Ugh!
I don't want to play this game anymore
I said I don't want to
Woah! Oof!
Ugh! Hmpf!
Huh, yeah, you found me
Guess it's my turn, huh?
No
Huh?
Wh-what are you talking about, Amanda? It's- it's my turn
No! I don't want to play this game anymore!
But, Amanda - did you not hear me!?!
Hi, my name's Amanda
What's your name?
Oh! That sounds familiar!
Have we played this game?
Where one person hides and you've got to go find them!
I'm looking for my friend!
Wait, you think you see him?
In this tree? In this box?
That's a good hiding spot!
Gotta get this done!
So we can have more fun!
Hey look, you found me!
I guess it's my turn, huh?
Or we could play another game! Maybe tag-!
Wait Amanda! I haven't gotten a turn
Can't we just do one more round of Hide and Seek?
I guess, that's only fair
uh... what comes next?
(Two, three, four, five) oh right, you're the best!
(Six, seven, eight, nine) you must play this a lot
(Seven, eight, nine, ten) so ready or not
Here I come?
Oh, no! She could be anywhere!
Do you see Amanda?
Now watch us play our part
Now watch us dance and sing
Don't want to fall apart
Like kids who never seem to scream
We get to play all day
But can we play my way
Got another game!
So can you try it with me?
Amanda, Amanda!
Oh, Amanda, Amanda!
Hi, my name's Amanda
Oh, hi! It's you again!
We're playing Hide and Seek
Seems like it never ends
Isn't it getting boring?
We'd have more fun today
If we tried something else
Put Hide and Seek away-!
I've been thinking how 'bout we play tag
When I say, you're it! and I run in zig-zag
Can we be happy if we make believe (amanda?)
Amanda, Amanda! (That we have a choice what you play with me)
I'm ready to play--Amanda!
What!
I know you're wanting to play tag, but
It's my turn now! It's my turn now!
It's my turn now! It's my turn now!
I want to play something else!
Now watch us play our part
Now watch us dance and sing
Don't let it break your heart
Just play along and never, ah!
We get to play all day
But can we play my way
Got another game!
So can you try it with me?
is she just past this bush?
(Count to ten) or behind this old tree?
(Will you help me find my friend?) I don't think she's down there, please you must trust me!
(Is she here?) I don't want to go in there
(Is she there?) I don't want to go in there
(I can't find her anywhere!) I don't wanna go
Huh?
Looks like you found silly Mister Fox!
Now watch him fall apart
Now watch him gush and bleed
He had a beating heart
That ended with a little scream!
Now we get to play all day!
And we will play my way
Made my own game!
So can you try it with me!
Now watch us rip apart
Now watch us dance agape
Puppets with beating hearts
And strings made of magnetic tape!
We're cursed to play all day!
But never play our way
Is there another game?
And could you try it for me?
What was your favorite hiding spot?
That was my favorite
Wait-Hold on
Is that?
Amanda-what?
It is! it's you!
