Crazy...but true

You know how they say that memory is most powerful with music? So you learn to count and say your ABC's and speak in spanish and memorize books in the bible and recite the 50 states and (if you're brilliant) all the presidents - all to some cheesy song? And, you never ever forget it...

Well, this morning I woke up with this bizarre song in my head and could not figure out where I knew it from. Judging from the words - I assumed it must be a Disney movie but could not pinpoint which one it could be!

Thank goodness for Google!! I typed in a few phrases and there it was! A song from Alvin and the Chipmunks. Here it is, in all it's glory:

GOTTA BELIEVE IN PUMPKINS

Sometimes I wonder what's gone wrong
Most folks have lost their spark
Life without a ray of hope
Sure can get mighty dark (like my closet)
And as I started thinking
Why life had turned so blue
I saw a book of fairy tales
And suddenly I knew
You gotta believe in pumpkins
If you wanna go to the ball
Don't stop yourself from having a little
And you can have it all
Faith is just like plantin' seeds
They help your dreams come true
Believe in what's around you
And good things will come to you
Now and then you're gonna feel
Stuck in the caboose
But throw those feelings out the door
And remember mother goose
Life is what you make it
You can fly or you can fall
Create a world of dreams come true
And life will fill your sail
You gotta believe in pumpkins
If you wanna go to the ball
Don't stop yourself from having a little
And you can have it all
Faith is just like plantin' seeds
They help your dreams come true
Believe in what's around you
And good things will come....
Believe in what's around you
And good things will come....
Believe in what's around you
And good things will come to you.
