One, two, tie your shoes
For some kids, this was easy,
But not for Danny.

Sit still and listen quietly,
For some kids, this was easy,
But not for Danny.

Stack the blocks
Cut the circle
Make new friends
Speak up
Say hello
For some kids, these were easy,
But not for Danny.

Imagine a whole new world,
For some kids, this was hard
But not for Danny.
