Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (Long Version)
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (Long Version) Lyrics
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Then the traveler in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark;
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye
Till the sun is in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
As your bright and tiny spark
Lights the traveler in the dark,
Through I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (Long Version) Alternative Lyrics
A special version for the boys to sing along to:
Twinkle Twinkle Chocolate Bar
My Daddy Drives a Racing Car
He drives fast
He drives slow
Where he goes I do not know
Twinkle Twinkle Chocolate Bar
My Daddy Drives a Racing Car
Daddy Brought A Motor Car Version
Add this verse after the first verse
Twinkle twinkle little star daddy brought a motor car
Push the button pull the choke
Off we go in a cloud of smoke
Twinkle twinkle little star
Daddy brought a motor car
Original Song where the Child desires candy
Ah! Vous dirai-je, Maman,
Ce qui cause mon tournment?
Papa veut que je raisonne,
Comme une grande personne;
Moi, je dis que les bonbons
Valent mieux que la raison.
Translation into English
Ah! Let me tell you, Mother,
What's the cause of my torment?
Papa wants me to reason
Like a grown-up.
Me, I say that candy has
Greater value than reason.
Another great version
Softly shining silver moon,
Peeking at me in my room,
When you're in the sky at night,
The world around me glows so brightly,
Softly shining silver moon,
If you go, please come back soon.

Rubber baby bumper cars, driving wildly through the stars. Causing them to take to flight, and go soaring through the night Make a wish as it goes by, little star up in the sky. -My version to amuse my daughter.
