Intro
Poppy calls, "Parade this way!"
Four bedtime stops will end the day.
Verse 1
Stop one: toys go in the basket.
Poppy puts each toy right past it.
Stop two: wash two puppy paws.
Splash them clean without a pause.
Chorus
March, march, pajama parade.
Each small bedtime job is made.
One, two, three, then number four.
Soft bed waits beyond the door.
Verse 2
Stop three: brush each puppy tooth.
Round and round to make them smooth.
Stop four: striped pajamas on.
Almost all the jobs are done.
Chorus
March, march, pajama parade.
Each small bedtime job is made.
One, two, three, then number four.
Soft bed waits beyond the door.
Bridge
Toys are neat and paws are clean.
Bright white teeth now softly gleam.
Striped pajamas, cozy feet,
Lead the parade to Poppy's sheet.
Final Chorus
March, march, parade is done.
Bedtime jobs were playful fun.
One, two, three, and number four,
Poppy rests and marches no more.

Good night, Poppy, sleepy head.
