Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One shoe on
Two socks lost
Three cartoons
Before we’re off
Four crumbs left
On the breakfast plate
Five more minutes
I’m already late
[Chorus]
We go 1
2
3
4
5
Counting all the ways this day’s alive
Then it’s 6
7
8
9
10
Say it once
Say it once again (hey!)
1

Tiny little steps that start the drive
Then it’s 6
7

10
Here we go
Here we go
My friend
[Verse 2]
Six clouds shaped
Like sailing ships
Seven secrets
On your lips
Eight tall trees
Past the yellow sign
Nine skipped stones
Ten beats of your hand in mine
[Chorus]
We go 1
2
3
4
5
Counting all the ways this day’s alive
Then it’s 6
7

10
Say it once
Say it once again (oh yeah!)

Two socks lost
Three cartoons
Before we’re off
Four crumbs left
On the breakfast plate

Style of Music
Playful indie-pop groove with bright acoustic guitar, hand percussion, and a bouncy bassline. Male vocals up close and conversational; kids’ choir doubles the hook on the chorus. Subtle glockenspiel sprinkles on the top, claps and group shouts lift the last chorus into a joyful, shout-along ending.
