UH-OH!
Cho: Uh-Oh! I made a mess. Uh-Oh! It’s true G-C-D-D7-G
Uh-Oh! I made a mess, but that’s what people do! G-C-G-D7-G
Uh-Oh! I spilled my juice, dropped it on the floor!
Uh-Oh! My Grandma says, “That’s what floors are for!”
Cho:
Uh-Oh! I tripped and fell, got an “owie” on my knee
Uh-Oh! I think there’s blood! Hey look! You wanna see?
Cho: Uh-Oh! My leg’s a mess. Uh-Oh! It’s true
Uh-Oh! My leg’s a mess, but that’s what people do
(garbage can clatter)
Uh-Oh! Wow! What was that? Did you hear that crash?
Uh-Oh! It was Daddy’s car, he ran into our trash!
Cho: Uh-Oh! He made a mess. Uh-Oh! It’s true
Uh-Oh! He made a mess, but that’s what people do
Uh-Oh! I lost my shoe, it’s in this pile somewhere
Uh-Oh! Under my shirts and socks and underwear!
Cho: Uh-Oh! My room’s a mess. Uh-Oh! It’s true
Uh-Oh! My room’s a mess, but that’s what people do
Uh-Oh! It’s the TV news, my Dad looks sad tonight
Uh-Oh! Mom gets upset, when she sees grown ups fight!
Cho: Uh-Oh! The world’s a mess. Uh-Oh! It’s true
Uh-Oh! The world’s a mess, but that’s what people do
Mom says “Let’s clean it up!” M’Dad says “Tears will dry”
I say “If there’s a mess, we can fix it if we try!”
Cho: Uh-Oh! I made a mess. Uh-Oh! It’s true,
Uh-Oh! I made a mess, cause I’m human just like you!
Uh-Oh! I made a mess, cause that’s what people do!
Uh-Oh! we made a mess, so let’s see what we can do!
