Not sure of the actual titles but...

...I think a couple of Joe Raposo's songs are:

* Trying (and trying again)
* He had a part in the High,Middle and Low song (its on youtube)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7V6AbyxL2xk
* Being a pig
* Look at this (its also on youtube)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KewxoN5A1Jw
* In one of his many songs about animals he sang about a Marmoset http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmoset

I'm sure there are much more though. He was a very good musical composer- he's very much missed.

A few more

Thre's also an early one where he double-tracked his vocals, so he can harmonize with yourself, tentatively titled "Eating"

To the best of my memory:

Eating makes a fine warm coat
And wings quite good for flying
Eating makes your bones grow straight
Without your even trying

Eating is important in a very special way
You must eat very carefully, so you'll get bigger every day

This is sung over footage of various animals in the zoo at feeding time. At the end, a turtle lets out a loud "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Gas, maybe?

Another one shows extreme close-ups of various objects (tires, hands, tomatoes)

Here's a little something all of us can see each day
Now let's all take a look at it closer in every way
You'll see many things that you'd never believe were there
So come and look a little closer if you dare.

Although there's so many tiny little parts that your eyes can't see
You couldn't ever hope to guess what it's gonna turn out to be
Is it round or flat, or skinny, square or short or tall?
Close up it doesn't look like what it is in any way at all.

Did you guess what it is? (Camera cut to show the actual item) That's right!

After Joe died, Bob redid the song, and had kids joining at the end
"It's a (fill in the blank!)". As good as bob is, he can't hold a candle to the original.

I think that might cover all the songs he sang on, but there's a whole boatload of instrumental scores for all the animal clips. But that's a whole 'nother kettle of fish.

Was it he who also did "Busy People" over the montage of people working ("Busy people; they work all day. People work and people play...")?

Don't forget the beautiful "Flying" song. One of my favorite Joe ballads.

No that was somebody else singing.
