      Almost the same. I studied biology in college but failed to get my diploma. Funnily there are notions I remember from this cartoon that I didn't learn in school until high school, some even until college.. Pretty advanced for a kid's show.

    Everything is singing
    Living a piece of the melody
    Smaller, bigger, biggest
    Being a part of the whole
    Holding hands we are a chorus
    As we follow what’s before us
    It’s harmony that binds us
    Snappy song, happy song
    That’s life

    Feel the rhythm growing
    Day by day as we go
    Look inside your body’s humming
    With a million drums that are drumming
    Fill your lungs; get ready
    Celebrating the joy
    That’s life
