because it keeps your teeth healthy and clean.
When I brush my teeth
I like singing a favorite song.
Sometimes when I'm brushing I hum
and I make the silliest sounds.

♪ Though I'd like to look down at the Earth from above ♪
♪ I would miss all the places and people I love ♪
♪ So although I might like it for one afternoon ♪
♪ I don't want to live on the moon ♪
♪ I'd like to travel under the sea ♪
♪ I could meet all the fish everywhere ♪
♪ Yes, I'd travel under the sea ♪
