Excuse Me, Songs
Thank You
Sung to "If You're Happy and You
Know It"
When my grandpa gives me something,
I say "thank you",
When my grandma gives me some-
thing,
I say "thank you".
I can see it makes them happy
When I say it so politely
Yes, good manners mean to always
say "thank you"!
If I bump into someone
I say "excuse me".
If I need to interrupt
I say "excuse me".
I can see it makes people happy
When I say it so politely
Yes, good manners mean to always
say "excuse me"!
