    "Lemonade Stand" lyrics

How much lemonade can the animals drink?
At the lemonade stand in the crazy jungle
Pint, cup, tablespoon, teaspoon
You will learn the difference soon
Cuz a monkey drinks more than a mouse
In the jungle.

The Sun came up and the jungle was getting hot
A mouse knew a teaspoon of lemonade would hit the spot
Then a toad hopped by and croaked a tune
"I'm bigger than a mouse; I can drink a tablespoon"
Three teaspoons to make a tablespoon... in the jungle

The mouse and the toad were sitting on a piece of wood
And the little bit of lemonade was tasting very good
Then a toucan flew by and said, "What's up?"
"I need a lot more may I please have a cup"
16 tablespoons to make one cup
3 teaspoons to make a tablespoon... in the jungle

But the day was young and there was more to drink
Wasting lemonade would really, really stink
Then a monkey dropped in from out of sight
"I'm twice as big and I need a pint."
It takes 2 cups to make one pint
16 tablespoons to make one cup
3 teaspoons to make a tablespoon... in the jungle

How much lemonade can the animals drink?
At the lemonade stand in the crazy jungle
Barrel, gallon, quart and pint
They all want a different size
Cause a hippo drinks more than a mouse
...In the jungle.

Well after the monkey had ordered himself one pint
A growl from the bushes gave him quite a fright
A tiger jumped through and said with a snort
"I'm twice as big and I can drink a quart"
Cuz it takes 2 pints to make one quart,
Takes 2 cups to make one pint,
16 tablespoons to make one cup,
3 teaspoons to make a tablespoon... in the jungle

While the monkey hanged in a tree with his pint (which had spilled)
And the tiger enjoyed his quart, which didn't seem right
A hippo came by whose name was Allan
"I'm 4 times as big and can drink a gallon"
Cuz it takes 4 quarts to make one gallon,
Takes 2 pints to make one quart,
Takes 2 cups to make one pint,
16 tablespoons to make one cup,
3 teaspoons to make a tablespoon... in the jungle

A monkey with a pint and a tiger with a quart, what a sight!
And hippo with a gallon and a sound coming from the right
Here comes the elephant, his name is Darrel
"I'm really thirsty, please give me a barrel"
That's 42 gallons to make one barrel,
Takes 4 quarts to make one gallon,
Takes 2 pints to make one quart,
Takes 2 cups to make one pint,
16 tablespoons to make one cup,
3 teaspoons to make a tablespoon... in the jungle, or the city, or the desert or the moon.

Hey, Mr. Elephant, how many teaspoons are there in a barrel?
