Song #1

Oh, yeah

Ohh, yeah

Ohhh, yeah

Angry Kool Aid is “bringing down the house”

We’ve got him and a little bit of juice

Ohhhh, yeah

We’ve got a new flavor entertaining

We’ve got a new flavor in our mouths

We’ve got a new flavor on our taste buds

Ohhhhhh, yeah

We’ve got a new excitement building

We’ve got a new thrill building

We’ve got a new thing building

Because

Ohhhhhhhh, yeah

We’ve got Kool Aid in the house…

Song #2:  Move on up by Curtis Mayfield

Stand up, stand up ladies!

Stand up, stand up men!

Stand up, stand up children!

Stand up, I say, stand up!

Do not let them push you down

Do not let them push you away

Do not let them push you- not ever, not today

Stand up, stand up ladies!

Stand up, stand up men!

Stand up, stand up children!

Stand up, I say, stand up!

Pound your feet

Take to the streets

Remember your dreams?

They were crushed.

They were crushed when you needed them the most!

Stand up, stand up ladies!

Stand up, stand up men!

Stand up, stand up children!

Stand up, I say, stand up!

Listen to your hearts

Listen to your elders

Listen to you

But listen not to those that bring you down

But those that bring you up

Song #3:  What’s Going on by Marvin Gaye

Try connecting, and not dividing

Try not punishing, try emancipating

Try opening up your heart, and not closing it under lock and key

Try not hating, try loving

Try listening to MLK, and not ignoring

Try not imitating Malcolm X’s first struggle, try his second

Try living the good life, try not living it through pieces and snow

Song #4:  Stand by Sly and the Family Stone

Going anywhere

Oh baby, yeah, we can make it anywhere

Stand up!

Stand up!

If you’re pushed into a corner

Stand up!

Stand up!

If you’re beaten by police

Stand up!

Stand up!

If we get mugged on vacation

Stand up!

Stand up!

If you are angry with me

Stand up!

Stand up!

If you’re afraid to shout, don’t be baby

Stand up! 

Stand up!

If your mother-in-law starts gettin’ angry with you

Stand up! 

Stand up!

There’s no reason why you can’t

Stand up!

Stand up!

Baby, we can do whatever we want, the amount of strength in any setting- just

Stand up!

Stand up!

Stand up!

Stand up!
