Scarf Song: “The More We Get Together”
The more we get together, together, together;
The more we get together, the happier we’ll be.
Because your friends are my friends, and my friends are your friends,
The more we get together, the happier we’ll be.

The more we help each other, each other, each other;
The more we help each other, the happier we’ll be.
Because helping is kindness, and kindness is helping,
The more we help each other, the happier we’ll be.

The more we share together, together, together;
The more we share together, the happier we’ll be.
Because sharing is caring, and caring is sharing;
The more we share together, the happier we’ll be.

The more we show kindness, show kindness, show kindness;
The more we show kindness, the happier we’ll be.
Because kindness is sharing, and helping, and caring;
The more we show kindness, the happier we’ll be.
