Lyrics
Recess, Recess!
My friends and I were walking down the hall
When we heard the principal say, “Hey guys what’s going on?”
Not much, we said, we’re going outside to play
He looked at his watch and said oh yes, it’s recess time
He smiled as he picked up his guitar and put his sneakers on,
And he sang
Recess, recess, it’s the best part of the day
Recess, recess, let’s go out and play, Hooray!
Recess, recess, it’s the best you must admit
The swings, the slide, the monkey bars, got ya, tag, you’re it
Jump forward jump back
Turn your self around
Slide to the left, slide to the right
Jump high off the ground
At recess I can run and play
Or what ever game I choose
No tests no quizzes can’t deny
Recess is cool
On the swings I can fly
Up to the tallest tree
And throw a ball with all my might
As far as I can see Hey!
Recess, recess, it’s the best part of the day
Recess, recess, let’s go out and play, Hooray!
Recess, recess, it’s the best you must admit
The swings, the slide, the monkey bars, got ya, tag, you’re it
Jump forward jump back
Turn your self around
Slide to the left, slide to the right
Jump high off the ground
I can shoot the hoops, do the loop de loop
I can kick and catch, and I can move like a flash
And everybody knows dodge ball is the best
And yes maybe, maybe yes I’m just a little obsessed
And I can kick a soccer ball, why up so high
And what I mean to imply, I think that ball can fly
And I can swing a bat with the greatest of ease
And I can swing so fast, I create a breeze
Now tag is great and there’s hide and seek
And 4 square I’ll admit, yeah, it’s pretty neat
And I can run like the wind that’s a guarantee
While kicking up dirt beneath my feet
Now recess is the place where I like and gettin’ down
I love being with my friends and playing around Hey! Hey!
Recess, recess, it’s the best part of the day
Recess, recess, let’s go out and play, Hooray!
Recess, recess, it’s the best you must admit
The swings, the slide, the monkey bars, got ya, tag, you’re it
Recess, recess, it’s the best part of the day
Recess, recess, let’s go out and play, Hooray!
