Eight Sandwiches – Up To Number 8 Lyrics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Numbers 1 to 10 Gus would love to teach,
while he's having fun playing at the beach.
Hey you must be feeling really great!
We're already up to number eight!

Gus has made eight sandwiches for lunch today.
"What's on your sandwiches Gus?"
Lettuce and pate.
Munch, munch, chew and crunch,
I love eating sandwiches for lunch.
