My Favorite Things
Maria:
Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens,
Bright copper kettles
And warm woolen mittens,
Brown paper packages tied up with strings,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Cream colored ponies
And crisp apple strudels,
Doorbells and sleighbells
And schnitzel with noodles,
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Girls in white dresses
With blue satin sashes,
Snowflakes that stay on
My nose and eyelashes,
Silver white winters that melt into springs,
These are a few of my favorite things.
When the dog bites,
When the bee stings,
When I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel
So bad.
Maria
(spoken):
Now you try it.
Children:
Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on kittens,
Bright copper kettles
And warm woolen mittens,
Brown paper packages tied up with strings,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Cream colored ponies
And crisp apple strudels,
Doorbells and sleighbells
And schnitzel with noodles,
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Girls in white dresses
With blue satin sashes,
Snowflakes that stay on
My nose and eyelashes,
Silver white winters that melt into springs,
These are a few of my favorite things.
When the dog bites,
When the bee stings,
When I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel
So bad.
