It was late one night in the nursery It woke up the whole family Our little baby sister was supposed to be asleep She was playing her Busy Box laying down a beat She had a barber pole roller that she could shake She was hitting that spring for all it could take She tapped the little button with one of her feet And Jack Be Nimble let out a squeak Then she pushed the little dog in a straight line And made a clicking sound in perfect time She squeezed the big knob right on cue The Hey Diddle Diddle cow let out a moo Come on and clap your hands It's the Baby Busy Box Band Nobody can play A squeaker that way And you ring that bell Baby you do it so well You use your feet and hands To play the Baby Busy Box Band Well, it sounded kind of musical, almost a tune It was coming from our little baby sister's room We opened the door, baby didn't mind at all Mom and Dad were dancing in the hall I got my saxophone and sister got a guitar And pretty soon we played it "Eight to the Bar" We opened up the windows 'cause it was hot The neighbors started dancing in the parking lot Come on and clap your hands It's the Baby Busy Box Band Nobody can play A squeaker that way And you ring that bell Baby you do it so well You use your feet and hands To play the Baby Busy Box Band And I'm sure you know how the story goes Baby sister stars in her own video She's just a little kid, she sits in her crib As she begins to rock and play her Busy Box Come on and clap your hands 'Cause it's the Baby Busy Box Band Nobody can play A squeaker that way And you ring that bell Baby you do it so well You use your feet and hands To play the Baby Busy Box Band The Baby Busy Box Band The Baby Busy Box Band To play the Baby Busy Box Band
