Babushka Songs
You’ll Never Find A Mouse
You’ll never find a mouse
In Babushka’s house.
It’s far too clean for a mouse to be seen!
Far too clean for a mouse to be seen!
Bye, bye mouse!
Bye, bye mouse!
You’ll never find a spider
Sitting down beside her.
It’s far too clean for a spider to be seen!
Far too clean for a spider to be seen!
Bye, bye spider!
Bye, bye spider!
You’ll never find a fly
Buzzing, buzzing by.
It’s far too clean for a fly to be seen!
Far too clean for a fly to be seen!
Bye, bye fly!
Bye, bye fly!
You’ll never find (clap, clap)
A speck of dust. (clap, clap)
Babushka cleans (clap, clap)
From dawn ‘til dusk!
You'll Never Find a Mouse
Babushka (Empty Heart)
Babushka.
Babushka.
She hides an empty place in her heart. (repeat)
Sweeping, sweeping, sweeping all day long.
She’s no time to stop and think,
Sweeping all day long.
Dusting, dusting, dusting all day long.
She’s no time to stop and think,
Dusting all day long.
Washing, washing, washing all day long.
She’s no time to stop and think,
Washing all day long.
Busy, busy, busy all day long.
She’s no time to stop and think….
(Spoken) Stop, Babushka!
It’s already clean.
Babushka.
Babushka.
She hides an empty place in her heart.
Babushka (Empty Heart)
Wipe Your Feet
We are kings from afar
Following that bright star,
We’re taking gifts to a child.
May we rest for a while?
May we rest for a while?
Please?
First Babushka, then repeated by all:
Wipe your feet!
Wipe your feet!
Wipe your nasty, dirty feet!
All
Wipe your feet!
Kings: (spoken crossly) huh! She ought to be more polite! We’re kings!
We are the camel train.
Carrying kings is a pain.
We’re taking gifts to a child.
May we rest for a while?
May we rest for a while?
Please?
First Babushka, then repeated by all:
Wipe your hooves!
Wipe your hooves!
Wipe your nasty, dirty hooves!
All
Wipe your hooves!
Wipe Your Feet!
There’s A Stable
There’s a stable full of cobwebs
Shabby and old,
And it’s dirty, very dusty,
Gloomy and cold.
But tonight that tatty stable
Is blazing with light,
‘Cos a baby’s been born tonight.
In the stable there
Are cattle, donkeys and sheep,
And their eyes are so wide open,
They just can’t sleep.
‘Cos tonight that tatty stable Is blazing with light,
‘Cos a baby’s been born tonight.
Yes, a baby’s been born tonight.
There's a Stable
To Bethlehem
Babushka I must go to Bethlehem,
Bethlehem, Bethlehem.
When I get to Bethlehem
I shall find the baby.
She must go to Bethlehem,
Bethlehem, Bethlehem.
When she gets to Bethlehem
She will find the baby,
She will find the baby.
To Bethlehem
Everything You Give

Full of pure love.

Full of pure love.
Everything you give with love
You give to him.
Amazing!
Everything you say with love
You say to him.
Amazing!
Everything you do with love
You do for him, ‘cos he is love.
When he smiles, what a gentle smile,
Full of pure love.
This child, what a gentle child,
Full of pure love.
Everything you give with love
You give to him.
Amazing!
Everything you say with love
You say to him.
Amazing!
Everything you do with love
You do for him, ‘cos he is love.
Yes he is love.
Everything You Give
Babushka (Full Heart)
Babushka.
Babushka.
She filled the empty place in her heart.
Happy, happy, happy all day long.
Now Babushka’s heart is full,
Happy all day long.
Jesus taught her, taught her how to love.
Now Babushka’s heart is full:
(Spoken) Hey, Babushka!
Jesus taught you love.
Babushka.
Babushka.
She filled the empty place in her heart.
Filled the empty place in her heart.
(Shouted) Hoi!
