Little songwriter

Connor has a tendancy to get fixated on a certain toy and play with it excessively for a few weeks at a time before he gets fixated on something else. The current "toy du jour" are a few instruments -- drums, guitar, and keyboard. He has recently written a few songs that are a result of his instrument fascination.

Song 1 -- Usually performed on guitar and sung into the boom mic stand he made out of Tinkertoys or on his snare drum.
I need somebody to date, date, date (drum, drum, drum)
I need somebody to date, date, date (drum, drum, drum)
I need somebody
I need somebody
I need sombody to date, date, date, date, date.

Song 2 -- Performed on his Konga drum while marching.
Dino (beat, beat) Dino-saur
Dino (beat, beat) Dino-saur
Here comes the terrible lizard
Here comes the terrible lizard

There are a few others, but these are the most developed musical pieces to date. Not quite a Mozart yet, but he still has a few years!!
