Party Day (Snowflake Center Version)

Party Day is a song that Laurie and her little girl sang at The Snowflake Center, Snowflake, Alaska. This song starts with Laurie Berkner and Lucy wearing sunglasses. After they wear sunglasses and lays and talk about the special place they are here, Katie and Carolina come up holding up two giant beach balls in the air. When the girls hold their balls in the air, Laurie tells the audience what are they going to do in their song. And then, Katie and Carolina throw the beach balls to crowd and the crowd plays with them all over the place. When they play with them, Rusty shows up and throws more beach balls to crowd as Laurie Berkner and Lucy sing Party Day. At the end of the song, Laurie Berkner and her little girl tell the crowd to put the balls back on the stage as the people play with them. The people starts to throw their beach balls back on the stage as a collection style.

Lyrics
Laurie Berkner: (sigh) Okay. (they drink water, putting on sunglasses and lays)

Laurie Berkner: (exhale) It has so very, very hot outside. Do you know where I am?

Crowd: The beach!

Lucy: Yep. That's right. The beach.

Laurie Berkner: Yep. Playing in sand, swimming in the ocean, eating pineapples, and playing with beach balls. But, we have some beach balls at our concert.

Lucy: Yeah. Beach balls at concert. (Katie and Carolina come up)

Laurie Berkner: See? That's our friend, Katie and that's Carolina.

Carolina: Thank you!

Laurie Berkner: See? There holding up the balls. See? They are going to throw them to the crowd. Don't hold on to the ball, just pass it to your partner. Make sure if they don't bump into us. And at the end, you gotta throw the balls back on our stage as a collection style. Whoooooooo!

Lucy: See? That's how we are going to do.

Carolina: Okay. Here we go!

(Lucy plays little strums on her ukulele, as Laurie, Katie and Carolina throw their balls for the people, as they scream loudly, Rusty shows up and throws more balls for the people)

(Laurie Berkner)

One little ladybug

Called up a banana slug

A cucumber beetle

And an ant

They drove to the beach

Where each one of them

Taught that little ladybug

A dance

They told stories and

Watched the waves

And played for hours

In the sand

Then that little ladybug

Said to the banana slug

The beetle and the ant

“Come and take my hand”

(Lucy & Laurie Berkner)

I like it here with all my friends

(friends friends)

I never want this day to end

(end end)

‘Cause we can dance

And we can play

(play play)

Let’s make today a party day

(day day)

Let’s make today a party day

Let’s make today a party day

‘Cause we can dance

And we can play

Let’s make today a party day

(Laurie Berkner)

One little ladybug

And a banana slug

A cucumber beetle

And an ant

Watched as the sun went down

Over the little town

They had built together

In the sand

Cucumber beetle

Had a purple guitar

And started to

Play them all a tune

That’s when the ladybug

Turned to the

Banana slug

The beetle, and the ant

And this is what she sang:

(Lucy & Laurie Berkner) I like it here with all my friends

(friends friends)

I never want this day to end

(end end)

‘Cause we can dance

And we can play

(play play)

Let’s make today a party day

(day day)

Let’s make today a party day

Let’s make today a party day

‘Cause we can dance

And we can play

Let’s make today a party day

Oh, Let’s make today

A party day

Let’s make today a party day

‘Cause we can dance

And we can play

Let’s make today a party day

Oh, let’s make today

A party day

Mmm, let’s make today

A party day

Let’s make today a party day

(Lucy plays tiny strums on her ukulele and Laurie strums big strums for The Clean-Up Tune)

Laurie Berkner: Okay. Thanks, everybody for having fun!

Lucy: Can you please put those balls back onstage? (Strumming continues)

Carolina: (grabs the little grey beachball and tosses it to Rusty)

Laurie Berkner: Nice job, Carry!

Carolina: (does a thumbs-up and grins)

(The two of the balls come flying towards Katy and Rusty)

Laurie Berkner: Here they comes! Look Out! Whooo! (They kept strumming as the balls bounce on Katy's body)
