Lyrics

I Wanna Know How It Works
Copyright © 2006 Amy Skelton Otey & Alexander V. Otey 2006

I wanna know how it works; I wanna know what makes it go tick-tock.
I wanna know how it works; I wanna know what makes it spin and rock.
I wanna know how it flies; I wanna know what makes it go sky high.
I wanna know how moves, I wanna know how it slides and grooves.

What makes the ocean wave, what makes the lion brave?
I wanna know because I want to know, I wanna know about it all.
Know, know, know, know, know, know, know
Know, know, know, know

I wanna know how it works; I wanna know what makes it go around.
I wanna know how it works; I wanna know what makes it make a sound.
I wanna know how it floats; I wanna know what makes the music notes.
I wanna know how it glides, I wanna know how it slips and slides.

What makes the moon come out, what makes volcanoes spout?
I wanna know because I want to know, I wanna know about it all.
Know, know, know, know, know, know, know
Know, know, know, know

I know that 2 plus 2 equals 4, but I wanna, I wanna, I wanna know more!
I know that 4 plus 4 equals 8, but I just, just, just can't wait!
How does a rainbow start, and who, who makes the snow?
When did the dinosaurs come here, and where, where did they go?
What is the meaning of life, and why, why do I grow?

I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know, know, know, know,
Know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know...

I wanna know how it works; I wanna know what makes it go so fast.
I wanna know how it works; I wanna know what makes the day go past.
I wanna know how it climbs; I wanna know how to make good rhymes.
I wanna know how it stops; I wanna know why a rabbit hops.

What makes the whole world turn, what makes the big sun burn?
I wanna know because I want to know, I wanna know about it all.

I wanna know because I want to know, I wanna know because I want to know!
know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know,
Yeah, yeah. I wanna know!

This is a very fun and active song. The hook is wonderful and is definitely something I can see being used for a fun kids' television show.
