Lyrics:
Waiting for the elevator
Might come sooner – might come later
When it does
I’ll step inside and go for a ride
Press the button
1 (1!)
Going to the 1st floor
1 (1!)
Going to the 1st floor
Up up up
And when it opens up the door …
There’s a dog (woof woof!)
Saying “Wag your tail with me”
Now we’re wagging while we’re
Waiting for the elevator (woof woof!)
Might come sooner – might come later (woof woof!)
When it does
We’ll step inside and go for a ride
Press the button
2 (2!)
Going to the 2nd floor
2 (2!)
Going to the 2nd floor
Up up up
And when it opens up the door
There’s a cat (meow meow!)
Saying “Come and jump with me”
Now we’re jumping while we’re …
Waiting for the elevator (woof woof, meow meow)
Might come sooner – might come later (woof woof, meow meow)
When it does
We’ll step inside and go for a ride
Press the button
3 (3!)
Going to the 3rd floor
3 (3!)
Going to the 3rd floor
Up up up
And when it opens up the door
There’s a cow (moo moo!)
Saying “Come and rock with me”
Now we’re rocking while we’re
Waiting for the elevator (woof woof, meow meow, moo moo!)
Might come sooner – might come later (woof woof, meow meow, moo moo!)
When it does
We’ll step inside and go for a ride
Press the button
4 (4!)
Going to the 4th floor
4 (4!)
Going to the 4th floor
Up up up
And when it opens up the door …
There’s an elephant (bbbppppp!)
Saying “Stomp your feet with me”
Now we’re stomping while we’re …
Waiting for the elevator (woof woof, meow meow, moo moo, bbbppp!)
Might come sooner – might come later (woof woof, meow meow, moo moo, bbbppp!)
When it does
We’ll step inside and go for a ride

Press the button
5 (5!)
Going to the 5th floor
5 (5!)
Going to the 5th floor
Up up up
And when it opens up the door …
There’s an alligator (snap snap!)
Waiting for me
Now we’re
ALL inside the elevator (woof woof, meow meow, moo moo, bbbppp! snap snap)
That includes the alligator (woof woof, meow meow, moo moo, bbbppp! snap snap)
Everyone is side by side
So let’s take a ride

Press the button
L (L!)
Going to the lobby floor
L (L!)
Going to the lobby floor
Down down down
And when it opens up the door
Everybody out!
‘Cause we’re
NOT waiting for the elevator anymore!
Snap snap!

Snap snap!
