The calendars have flipped, the kids are back in school and 2022 is finally a go! And a year as wonderful as 2022 is going to be deserves a suitably wonderful theme song, don’t you think?

Luckily our pals from TRiPOD have provided just such a tune!

You can find the band on Facebook and the lyrics are below in case you want to sing along. Thanks so much, TRiPOD!

Puppets Up and Away
Recorded and performed by TRiPOD

Hello hello hello

And welcome to our show

Rags and wood and bits of string

I can been made from most anything

A sock and woolen thread

Two button eyes on the side of your hand

There’ll be some smiles. You bet there will

To mark. Get ready. Set. Come fill your

Cup. PUPPETS UP AND AWAY.

Hello hello hello

And welcome to our show

Painted sails and painted wings

I come alive in most anything

We offer now the chance

To have a laugh and join in the song and dance

There’ll be some smiles. You bet there will

Ol’ Nick invites you to come fill your

Cup. PUPPETS UP AND AWAY.
