R-U-G-R-A-T-S

Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, let's go there
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes
Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, you know where
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes

Sittin' here thinkin' 'bout yesterday
About what we did and how we used to play
Just the thought of you brings a smile upon my face
That's how it makes me feel to see you everyday
Whoa, yeah-yeah
Where we go, nobody knows
And what we do, is between me and you
So c'mon and take my hand, to that special place
Where smiles come to life, and dreams come true, ooh

Take me there, I wanna go there (I wanna go there)
Take me there, let's go there
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes
Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, you know where
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes

Let's make a wish
Close your eyes and count to five
'Cause you know that everything will be alright
See the magic in your eyes
You're strong enough, you know
To bring your dreams to life, oh
Oh, where we go, nobody knows
And what we do, is between me and you (you-you, you-you)
So c'mon and take my hand, to that special place
Don't want this dream to ever go away, oh yeah

Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, let's go there (all the way)
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (I wanna go, I gotta go, take me there)
Take me there, I wanna go there
Take me there, you know where
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes

Now Angelica's the one with all the exposure
Dil is the one they drop in the stroller
Tommy got the whole world on his shoulders
And Dil cries to sleep
'Til his eyes get bleak
And I couldn't of brang Chuckie, Chuckie to petro
Chuckie get scared, Chuckie says, "Let's go"
If I was a Rugrat, it would've been so real
Me and my twin would've been just like Phil and Lil

And with one wish, Blink grant you one trip
When we go in this adventure, who you wanna come with?
See, you're my little brother that I'll come get
Run with, but it's gotta be done quick
So, Chuckie is scared and Tommy is sad
And Phil and Lil misses their mommy and dad
So pick a time and date
And find a place
And I guarantee that we will all get home safe (just take me there)

Take me there, I wanna go there (me there)
Take me there, let's go there (to that special place)
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (I wanna go, I gotta go, let's go)
Take me there, I wanna go there (let's go, I wanna go there)
Take me there, you know where (I wanna go there, can we go there?)
Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (can we go there?)
(Can you take, take, take, take, take me?)

Take me there, I wanna go there (I wanna go, I need to go)
(I wanna go there)
Take me there, let's go there (I wanna go, I wanna go now)
Take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go)
Take me there, I wanna go there (oh-oh, yeah)
Take me there, you know where (oh-oh, yeah, take me there)




Just take me to that great place with wonders and wishes (take me there)
(You can take me there) (let's go)
