Musical numbers
Oh isn't it fun to live in the moon?
Whatever can we do
I sweep the sky
My basket brave and I
Derry derry down Oh!
Galloping, galloping up in the sky
The sandman
Tippetty tippetty toe
Goblins bold are we
If you will be a meddlesome Matty
The deed is done
Bong! goes the gong
One song before we part
Lullaby
