Lyrics

I'm Full of Surprises

Diesel: I'm full of surprises
Paxton: (spoken) "Are you singing, Diesel?"
Diesel: They ought to say of me
I bring some razzle dazzle to the yard
I'm full of surprises
As you can plainly see
I don't find being surprising all that hard
Paxton: (spoken) "I can't really see anything under here!"
Diesel:
I'm full of surprises
They ought to say of me
I bring some razzle dazzle to the yard
I'm full of surprises
As you can plainly see
I don't find being surprising all that hard
Some would probably say
I'm only up to my old tricks
But I'd say I'm a problem solver
Looking for a nice quick fix
I'm full of surprises
They ought to say of me
I bring some razzle dazzle to the rail
I'm full of surprises
As you can plainly see
I'm trusting my surprises to prevail
I hope this time being surprising doesn't fail!
They used to call me devious
Dart: (spoken) "Excuse me!"
Diesel: Because I had a bit of previous
Paxton: (spoken) "Is that someone I know?"
Diesel: But please, you must believious
I'm not that bad...
(giggles, honks)
Well maybe just a tad.

He's Full of Surprises

He's full of surprises
Just like he'll always be
He brings some razzle dazzle to the yard
He's full of surprises
As you can plainly see
He don't find being surprising all that hard
Some would probably say
He's only up to his old tricks
But he'd say he's a problem solver
Looking for a nice quick fix
He's full of surprises
Just like he'll always be
He brings some razzle dazzle to the rail
He's full of surprises
As you can plainly see
He's trusting his surprises to prevail
He hopes this time being surprising doesn't fail
They used to call him devious
Because he had a bit of previous
But please, you must believious
He’s not that bad
Well, maybe just a tad!
