Fly Family
I got a pretty Fly family
Frederick’s my Dad, Fiona’s my mom
And the twins Fillmore and Fonzy
And me?! Well people always call me Franny
Rock and roll princess and the oldest in the family
I got all the passion and I’m sassy but I’m friendly
So come and hang with me so we can
Fly away
In the Palm Springs sky
We might get away
For the 4th of July
And I would love it if you come fly away with us
We could use someone adventurous!
So what do you say?
I know you’re gonna love everyone in my Fly family
I got a lot of friends you should meet
Yea like the twins’ friend, Finny Feldman
And Felix who lives down the street
You’ll see, Frances the Foodle he’s the coolest in the desert
Such a cute pup we’re always playing together
Ya there’s nothing better
So come on an adventure with me (and Felix and Finny) so we can
Fly away
In the Palm Springs sky
We might get away
For the 4th of July
And I would love it if you come fly away with us
We could use someone adventurous!
So what do you say?
I know you’re gonna love everyone in my Fly family
Yea I got a pretty Fly family
And we got so much to do, so much to see
So much to learn, so much to read
Come fly away, yea with me
And my Fly family
Perfect
— Inspired by the Fly Family picture book, “There’s No Such Thing as a Perfect Fly.”
“We like how it’s upbeat and makes you want to dance. The message of the song is good because it inspires you to be yourself…you’re perfect just the way you are!” – Layla and Lucy Halter (9)
This Fly family they’ve all got something wrong about them
Just take Fillmore and his hair
He tried to cut a mullet, but he messed it up so sadly
Bet he wishes it was there, yea
Look at Fonzy he had hurt his wing and bruised it badly
Boy was he upset yea
He thought that it would ruin his audition, but his Daddy
Told him don’t be scared, yea
Nobody’s perfect, perfect, perfect at all
You’re not unworthy worthy, no matter what
Cause everyone’s got a little flaw
No one’s perfect at all, but still you’re worth it, worth it
Cause you’re perfect to me
Perfect to me
One day they received a call about their neighbors’ doggy
Frances the Foodle hurt his leg, yea
They went to see him and instead of him being embarrassed
He said it’s just a sign of strength
Frances teaches us to love all of our imperfections
And be glad you’re alive, yea
The boys they should have listened to their Dad and his life lessons
He gave them great advice, that’s right
Nobody’s perfect, perfect, perfect at all
You’re not unworthy worthy, no matter what
Cause everyone’s got a little flaw
No one’s perfect at all, but still you’re worth it, worth it
Cause you’re perfect to me
Perfect to me
Everybody
Is just like the Fly family
Cause even though, we may not be flawless
We’re works in progress
And that’s ok to Franny
See, she knows no one’s…
Perfect, perfect, perfect at all
You’re not unworthy worthy, no matter what
Cause everyone’s got a little flaw
No one’s perfect at all, but still you’re worth it, worth it
Cause you’re perfect to me
Yea you’re perfect to me
Just like the Fly family
They’re all perfect to me yea yea
Just read it and see…
Golden Rule
— Inspired by the Fly Family chapter book, “The Mystery at Black Rock Beach.”
Frederick says, “Doing what’s right isn’t always popular!”
Nothing comes perfectly
But this Fly family
Will give when it’s needed
Help those mistreated
Love should come easily
So let’s treat each other
Like we’d be treating ourselves
Let’s love one another
Mother Nature’s included as well
Let’s be kind to every life
Animals alike
Remind you of the golden rule
It’s to treat each other
As you would like to be treated too
Sometimes doing what’s right is uncomfortable
Your guide comes from a compass of your own morals
You know what’s right from wrong
You’ve known it all along
It’s deep down inside you
Franny reminds you
How to be your best
Yea, let’s treat each other
Like we’d be treating ourselves
Let’s love one another
Mother Nature’s included as well
Let’s be kind to every life
Animals alike
Remind you of the golden rule
It’s to treat each other
As you would like to be treated too
You don’t have to love perfectly ya
No, You just need to do the right thing
And that’s to treat each other
Like we’d be treating ourselves
Let’s love one another
Mother Nature’s included as well
Let’s be kind to every life
Animals alike
Remind you of the golden rule
It’s to treat each other
As you would like to be treated too
Leap of Faith
— Inspired by the Fly Family picture book, “Franny’s First Dance.”
If you love with courage that’s the best
Too much focus on yourself you’ll lose confidence
In the Fly family
Everyone is equal
Ya, they’re all the same
Franny has her insecurities
But she’s not afraid, afraid
Franny she reminds us we’re the same, equally
So take it easy on yourself
We’re all as one
Around the sun today, so it’s safe
To take your leap of faith and run
Far outside of your comfort
No one’s judging, don’t play it safe
Ask yourself if you’re making someone’s day
No one can say they’re better, we’re all even
No one’s less we’re more the same
Let go of your insecurities
You won’t be afraid, afraid
Franny she reminds us we’re the same, equally
So take it easy on yourself
We’re all as one
Around the sun today, so it’s safe
To take your leap of faith and run
Come see what’s underneath the surface
Love, love enough to change
Just don’t be afraid, afraid
Franny she reminds us we’re the same, equally
So take it easy on yourself
We’re all as one
Around the sun today, so it’s safe
To take your leap of faith and run
