HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOOEY I came to your birthday party I had a big piece of cake That's when the music started And my little feet started to shake I'm swingin' to the ra-ha ka-lou-ee Doin' the cha-cha ka-hoo-ee The cats are jumpin' their jewelry And the kids are all callin' for Mooey MOO-EE, MOO-EE, MOO-EE (Party!) Now I'm doin' the ra-ha ka-lou-ee Swingin' to the musical beat I'm dancin' to the cha-cha-ka hoo-ee Just tryin' to follow my feet Came to the party with Camila Cabello Dua Lipa, Arun, and Gaga galore Soon the stompin' crowd was cheerin' and callin' "Mooey, Mooey, gotta give us some more" MOO-EE, MOO-EE, MOO-EE (Party!) I'm doin' the ra-ha ka-lou-ee Swingin' to the musical beat I'm dancin' to the cha-cha-ka hoo-ee Just tryin' to follow my feet MOO-EE, MOO-EE, MOO-EE (Party!)

COCKADOODLE DOO DOO It's a cockamamie cockadoodle day, no way Gotta stop this cocka-doo-doo, stop it today Well, I woke up this morning and I opened my door What a surprise, need I say more? It's a cockadoodle doo doo, plain to see I'm tired of these doo doos following me Just bring a little bag & a scooper too Will just take a minute It's the least you can do Pick up that treasure, your little dog left Would really appreciate it, you bet So pretty please, won't you think twice When you're walkin' your dog and he leaves somethin' not nice These daily doo doos send me for a loop Outside my door, right next to the stoop Just bring a little bag & a scooper too Will just take a minute It's the least you can do Pick up that treasure, your little dog left Would really appreciate it, you bet Sun shinin' in my window it's a beautiful day Blue skies a-callin' time to bale the hay Gonna open my door, hope for the best Oh no! There's a doo doo in a neat little mess Just bring a little bag & a scooper too Will just take a minute It's the least you can do Pick up that treasure, your little dog left Would really appreciate it, you bet It's a cockamamie cockadoodle day, no way Gotta stop this cocka-doo-doo, stop it today Pick up that treasure, your little dog left Would really appreciate it, you bet (2x) Dedicated to Joseph for inspiring us to record this song.

I JUST WANNA HOLD A PIGLET Well I just want to hold a piglet like I did when I was small Wiggly, squirmin' and squealin' held him tight so he wouldn't fall Such a sweet piggy face with a little pink piggy snout He's got a real cute curly tail that twirls when he's runnin' about Every morning, we're up with the sun Planting & plowing, more chores to be done Milking the cows, the old-fashioned way Checking our chickens for eggs in the hay Well I just want to hold a piglet like I did when I was small Wiggly, squirmin' and squealin' held him tight so he wouldn't fall Such a sweet piggy face with a little pink piggy snout He's got a real cute curly tail that twirls when he's runnin' about Up in the hayloft, take time to play More & more kittens chasin' mice every day Brother just called 'bout his lambs four new born We're all goin' over to see 'em first thing in the morn' Piglet, my piglet where are you now? Don't wanna think too much about it somehow Not everyone sees you the way that I do Piglet, my piglet, so special to me then Piglet, my piglet, a mem'ry to me now But I still love you, I still love you, I still love you Pastures and fields, beautiful green What I'd give to fly skyward on that old tire swing Now I'm swingin' - up to the clouds Out over the valley, free from the clouds Cherishin' my memories from my home town Well I just want to hold a piglet like I did when I was small Back on the farm, that once upon a time where I had it all Such a sweet piggy face with a little pink piggy snout He's got a real cute curly tail that twirls when he's runnin' about Twirls when he's runnin' about, oh yeah (2x) I still love you, I still love you, I still love you Dedicated to the Marvin family of Preston, Iowa Lyrics & music by Cynthia Haring © 2015, 2019 Deers Ear Music (BMI).

THE RAINBOW CONNECTION For Kermit, who is the inspiration behind this song Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what's on the other side Rainbows are visions but only illusions and rainbows have nothing to hide So we've been told and some choose to believe it I know they're wrong, wait and see Someday we'll find it the rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers, and me Who said that every wish would be heard and answered When wished on a morning star Somebody thought of that and someone believed it Look what it's done so far What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing And what do you think we might see Someday we'll find it the rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers, and me All of us under its spell We know that it's probably magic Have you been half asleep and have you heard the voices? I've heard them calling my name Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors? The voice might be one and the same I've heard it too many times to ignore it It's something that I'm supposed to be Someday we'll find it the rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers, and me Lyrics & music by Paul Williams and Kenny Ascher © 1978 Walt Disney Music Company (Fuzzy Muppets Songs)

HEAL THE WORLD/WE ARE THE WORLD There's a place in your heart And I know that it is love And this place is much Brighter than tomorrow And if you really try You'll find there's no need to cry In this place you'll feel There's no hurt or sorrow There are ways to get there If you care enough for the living Make a little space, make a better place Chorus Heal the world, make it a better place For you & for me & the entire human race There are people dying If you care enough for the living Make a better place for you and for me If you want to know why There's a love that cannot lie Love is strong, it only cares For joyful giving If we try, we shall see In this bliss we cannot feel Fear or dread, we stop existing And start living Then it feels that always Love's enough for us growing Make a better world, make a better world Chorus We are all a part of God's great big family And the truth, you know, love is all we need We are the world, we are the children We are the ones who make a brighter day So, lets start giving There's a choice we're making We're saving our own lives It's true we'll make a better day Just you and me (repeat) We'll make a better day You and me "Heal the World" by Michael Jackson & Marty Paich © 1989, Mijac Music at Sony/ATV Songs LLC "We Are the World" by Michael Jackson & Lionel Richie © 1985, Mijac Music at Sony/ATV Songs LLC, Brenda Richie Publishing & Brockman Music Adaptation by Cynthia Haring & Katia Valdeos for "School of Fish" album © 2019

A few years ago, I sent a birthday card to my meditation teacher that talked about my plans for a "School of Fish" children's music album. The card, created by a child getting treatment at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, had some beautiful, colorful fish on it. My teacher commented that we should all work together like the fish, in groups. This became an inspiration for me in working with others.

I remembered her words and began to focus on the power of teamwork as we started pre-production on this album - writing songs, planning arrangements, selecting musicians and collaborators, and finally preparing children & teens to rehearse and go into the studio to record. Throughout the making of this album, our music production and art team, our engineering team, our World Nation singers, parents and friends - all worked together like a "school of fish" encouraging and supporting each other.

Katia and I are extremely grateful to many people for their tireless support of our "School of Fish" children's album. Truly, we learned that by being united, like a "school of fish" we can achieve so much more.

Thank you to Leonid Afremov for creating a new "School of Fish" painting for our album; art director Michael Crabb for excellence in manifesting our vision; music & entertainment consultants Tracey Milionis & William Kelly Milionis at Mighty Achilles LLC; and Jami Stancampiano for wonderful "School of Fish" photos of our children & piglet Cheeto. Finally, we thank Roshni Mohapatra (in memoriam) for being the original brainstormer for design on "School of Fish" in its infancy when we were in Singapore in 2016.

Special thanks to Lonnie Park for production assistance on this album and to Ruben Salas, Raniero Palm, Luis Bermudez & Eybar Serrano for production assistance on music for "Mooey" and "School of Fish" song.

We proudly support Beat Nb, co-founded by Ezra's parents Kyle & Robyn Matthews, which exists to beat neuroblastoma & other cancer in children. They are affecting real change through driving clinical trials in 45+ children's hospitals.

A portion of CD proceeds will be donated to Beat Childhood Cancer, the Caryl Haring Memorial Scholarship Fund, Wildlife Rescue, and other charities through the Haring Valdeos Foundation for the Arts, Earth, Education & Social Justice.
