Intro - Playful synth riff with claps building in] [Spoken - Both] Seatbelts clicked? Snack bags packed? Okay, let’s roll! [Verse 1 - Female: Amala] Lunchbox bouncing on the passenger seat Purple backpack by my feet Hair in braids, got glitter clips Strawberry gloss on my lips Mama waves from the driveway Sun peeks over the highway Turn the music up just right Morning’s starting out bright [Verse 2 - Female: Amirah] I hop in with my favorite book Amala gives that “let’s go” look Gold star chart inside my bag Show-and-tell, don’t wanna brag Windows down, breeze in our hair We practice letters in the air Counting trees as we pass by Laughing loud, we don’t act shy [Pre-Chorus - Both] Red light, green light, tap the dash Snack time plans in a flash Best friends in the front row seats Rolling on Montessori Street [Chorus - Both] We’re the carpool queens, yeah that’s us Backseat singing, making a fuss Amala, Amirah, side by side Morning rhythm, turn it up high ABC’s and 1-2-3’s Sharing snacks and harmonies From the driveway to the school routine We run the road — carpool queens! [Post-Chorus - Clap Break] Hey! Hey! Carpool queens! Hey! Hey! Carpool queens! [Verse 3 - Female: Amala] Finger paint dreams in our minds Circle time, we love the signs Tiny chairs and wooden beads Learning shapes and planting seeds But first that ride, that little show Our private concert before we go Rearview mirror superstar Every morning’s who we are [Verse 4 - Female: Amirah] Flashcards ready, counting blocks Velcro shoes and polka-dot socks We make up dances in our seats Drum the rhythm with our feet If we’re early, that’s okay More time to laugh on the way Best part isn’t even school It’s rolling up like we’re so cool [Pre-Chorus - Both] Red light, green light, tap the dash Snack time plans in a flash Best friends in the front row seats Rolling on Montessori Street [Chorus - Both] We’re the carpool queens, yeah that’s us Backseat singing, making a fuss Amala, Amirah, side by side Morning rhythm, turn it up high ABC’s and 1-2-3’s Sharing snacks and harmonies From the driveway to the school routine We run the road — carpool queens! [Bridge - Breakdown with soft beat] [Amala] Promise we’ll wave through the window glass [Amirah] Race to the cubbies, see who’s fast [Both - Harmony building] But every morning starts the same Two best friends in the carpool lane [Build - Beat rising with claps] [Chorus - Both] We’re the carpool queens, yeah that’s us Backseat singing, making a fuss Amala, Amirah, side by side Morning rhythm, turn it up high ABC’s and 1-2-3’s Sharing snacks and harmonies From the driveway to the school routine We run the road — carpool queens! [Outro - Fade Out with Ad-libs] [Ad-libs - Both] See you at the monkey bars! Don’t forget your snack! Carpool queens!
