Welcome all, we're glad that you're here, It's been a great year at the School of Reindeer
We've been learning all that we need.  Our teachers will help us so we can succeed.

We've learned our A, B, C's.  And 1, 2, 3's.  The capital of New York is Albany.
It's a well-rounded education, you see.  And learning is the key.

Training's hard, but it's very clear, our hard work pays off at the School of Reindeer
We've learned so much we can now try.  The next thing we need is to learn how to fly.

We've learned our A, B, C's.  And 1, 2, 3's.  The capital of New York is Albany.
It's a well-rounded education, you see.  And learning is the key.

We've had science,  "E=MC2",    Mathematics  "The square root of 64 is 8."
There's music.  "the key of D has 2 sharps"  And more!  "A Whole lot more!"

It's a well-rounded education, you see.  And learning is the key
​And now our sights are set on the sky!  We get to learn how to fly!  Fly!  Fly!  Fly!

Going high above the clouds,
higher than the birds.
Way up in the atmosphere
where sonic booms are heard.
Up there in the reindeer zone.
We’ll take the skyway to the reindeer zone.
Now it’s time to make our mark,
stepping to the plate.
Showing what we’re really made of,
we know we’ll be great.
Up there in the reindeer zone.
We’ll take the skyway to the reindeer zone.
This is what we’ve waited for,
time to show our stuff.
We are magic reindeer
and we never get enough.
Up there in the reindeer zone.
We’ll take the skyway to the reindeer zone.
Up there in the reindeer zone.
We’ll take the skyway to the reindeer zone.
Reindeer zone. Reindeer zone.
Reindeer zone. The zone.

We worked very hard. We tried to make the grade.
Yet we cannot fly. We thought we had it made.
We got our rest, we got our sleep but when we tried to jump and leap,
we landed in a lumpy heap.
Oh, why, why, why? (spoken solo: Why?)
Why, why, why can’t all reindeer fly? (solo sfx: raspberry)
Somebody tell me, why can’t all reindeer fly? (spoken solo: Ouch.)
No, it isn’t fair. And no, it isn’t right.
Can’t you see our point? Oh, can’t you see our plight?
We knew that we were on our own and launched into the reindeer zone.
At least we didn’t break a bone.
But why, why, why? (spoken solo: Why?)
Why, why, why can’t all reindeer fly? (solo sfx: raspberry)
Somebody tell me, why can’t all reindeer fly? (spoken solo: Why?)
Why, why, why can’t all reindeer fly? (solo sfx: tarzan yell)
Somebody tell me, why can’t all reindeer fly?
all, spoken: Why??
