School’s out
Time to play
Here with friends
Not it!

Hide and seek with my friends in the playground
I’ve only got ’til the count of ten to disappear
Behind the slide or in the bushes
Both no good ’cause someone’s already there
I can’t panic ’cause once I find a spot
I’ll have to keep my body perfectly still
I can’t decide where I’m going to hide
8, 9, 10… oh no, game over

Hide and seek, freeze tag, and red rover
We play it all, so come on over
It’s summertime, and we’re ready to play
Wake up early and play all day

So now I’m it, and the game is freeze tag
That’s cool – my expertise is in freezin’
Zig zag, and when you’re tagged, stay put
Can’t move at all – not even a foot
Think fast – do I go left or right now?
Move fast – I’m catchin’ up to you
Be fast – but I’m a little bit faster
I could run all afternoon

Hide and seek, freeze tag, and red rover
We play it all, so come on over
It’s summertime, and we’re ready to play
Wake up early and play all day

Let’s play a game of red rover
Feel free to send anybody over
‘Cause I’m a wall, and I’ll stop ’em all
I’m like a backstop playin’ against baseballs
They call me out, and it’s my turn to go now
Red rover, run as fast as I can
I hit hard, but it’s not enough
I get up, join the chain, and get ready to try again

Hide and seek, freeze tag, and red rover
We play it all, so come on over
It’s summertime, and we’re ready to play
Wake up early and play all day

Gotta run
I’ve got speed
And to catch you is all I need
Now you’re it

Hide and seek, freeze tag, and red rover
We play it all, so come on over
It’s summertime, and we’re ready to play
Wake up early and play all day
