From the band's own website:
"The Movers – Rich, Scott, Dave and Smitty -- began in New Orleans in 2003 and now are fast-rising stars on the national kids music scene thanks to their combination of radio-friendly songs, kid-friendly themes and dynamic live shows. In concert, the Movers teach high-energy dances, play games with the audience and make music on their one-of-a-kind trashcan drumset. Kids and parents help perform new kids classics like “Shakable You,” “The Medicine Song,” “What’s in the Fridge?” and "I Want My Mommy (Time for Bed).""
and:
"In 2007, Disney Channel green-lighted a Movers television series for Playhouse Disney featuring Rich, Scott, Dave and Smitty as blue-collar brainstormers working hard to solve “idea emergencies” in their Idea Warehouse, a clearinghouse of infinite inspirations. Through songs, stories and skits, the Movers move kids to exercise their bodies and brains."

Imagination Movers Lyrics

Look who's coming
Here comes my friend
They call him Mr. Knit Knots
He's got a job, so here we go
Ready or not
I'm ready
I need some inspiration
Check and see what I've got
What you got, what you got
Time to take another look
In my idea box
Everybody stand back
What's in your idea box?
Open your idea box
Look in your idea box
You've got to share your idea box
Share, share it
With the whole world
Look over there
It's Imagination Mover Scott
I said the wobble-de-goggles
Is what he's got
They wobble-de-wobble-de-wobble-de-wobble
You've got to give a big wave
Give a big wave
That's me, hey
To Mover Dave
You know that under his hat
He keeps the things he likes to save
Look at that, look at that
Here comes my friend
And Smitty is his name
Well, all right, well, all right
He drives the Mover Mobile
And adventure is his game
Back it up, Smitty, back it up
Hey everybody
I'm Imagination Mover Rich
Rich, Rich, yow
I like to draw on the screen
With my magic drumsticks
Numbers and letters
Everything that fits
I said now, what's in your idea box?
What's in your idea box?
Open your idea box

The lyrics to Imagination Movers' song Idea Box encourage creativity and collaboration. The singer is excited to have friends like Mr. Knit Knots, Mover Scott, Mover Dave, and Smitty who all bring something unique to the table. The song emphasizes the importance of looking within oneself ("What you got, what you got") and sharing with others ("Share it, share it with the world/With the whole world"). The line "I like to draw on the screen/With my magic drumsticks" suggests that the song is about more than just literal ideas; it's also about artistic expression and finding unique ways to share one's thoughts.
