Til You Try Out Something New

"Til You Try Out Something New" is a song from the Johnny and the Sprites episode, "A Sprites Snow Day". It is about the sprites trying to find a help to help Johnny's friend, Gwen travel through the winter snow so that she can be one of Santa's helpers. Their ideas don't work at first, but they find that by continuing to brainstorm that they can combine elements from all of their ideas into something that will work. The song is performed by Leslie Carrara as Ginger, Tim Lagasse as Basil, and Carmen Osbahr as Lily, with spoken parts from John Tartaglia as Johnny, Natalie Venetia Belcon as Gwen, and Heather Asch as Root. The song's title and lyrics reference a phrase that Gwen often states on the series was said by her aunt, that "You never know what you can do until you try out something new."
==Lyrics==
Ginger:
First we'll take this stick
And stick it into the ground
Then we'll take this rope and wrap it up all around
Then we'll pull it back
And shoot her into the sky
Then she'll flap her wings
And we can watch her fly
Basil:
That won't work
Ginger:
Yes, it will
Basil:
No, it won't
Ginger:
Yes, it will
Basil:
You're forgetting some important things
Ginger:
Like what?
Basil:
Like humans don't have wings
Ginger:
Oh, that's true.
Lily:
But you never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Ginger:
Hey, Lily's right.
Ginger and Lily:
You never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Lily:
A little problem comes up
So you develop a plan
Ginger:
And someone says that you can't
When you're sure that you can
Ginger, Lily, and Basil:
You never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Johnny:
Hey, you guys. Hey. Here's some hot chocolate to keep you warm. And a blanket, too.
Ginger:
Hot chocolate?!
Ginger and Lily:
Thank you, Johnny!
Gwen:
Johnny, what's going on out there?
Johnny:
Uh, nothing. You wanna play checkers?
Gwen:
Sure.
Lily:
Uh! You know... that blanket is giving me a great idea. Ha!
We'll take this blanket and twine
And tie it closed with a twig
We'll fill it with hot air
From my hot chocolate mug
The blanket starts to fill up
Cross your fingers 'cause soon
She'll be flying home in her hot chocolate air balloon
Basil:
That won't work
Lily:
Yes, it will
Basil:
No, it won't
Lily:
Yes, it will
Basil:
I'm afraid that won't work out at all
Lily:
And why not?
Basil:
Because she's too big
And that balloon's too small
Lily:
Oh, good point.
Ginger:
But you never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Basil:
Yeah. That's right.
Ginger and Basil:
You never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Basil:
A little problem comes up
You give it all that you've got
Ginger:
And people say that you're wrong
But you're certain you're not
Ginger and Basil:
You never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Lily:
Adios, fuzzie!
Basil:
Wait. Remember when Gwen said she need something so she could walk on the snow?
Ginger:
Yeah.
Basil:
I have an idea.
Ginger:
Hmm? Wai--
Johnny:
Hmm. Ooh, ha ha. Uh, good move.
Gwen:
Go me. Go me. Go me.
Johnny:
Hey, what's up? What's up?
Basil:
Johnny, do you still have those rackets we played with last summer?
Johnny:
Uh, yeah.
Basil:
Can we have them?
Johnny:
Sure. Yeah. Okay.
Gwen:
Your move, Johnny.
Johnny:
Yeah, coming. One second.
Basil:
We'll take these rackets here
And then we'll use Lily's twine
To tie them to Gwen's feet
Lily:
Snowshoes!
Ginger:
That'll work fine!
Basil:
So she won't fall
We'll give her Ginger's stick
Ginger:
And Seymour's snacks, that should do the trick
Lily:
That'll work
Ginger:
It should work
Lily:
It'll work
Basil:
It would work
Ginger:
You used my stick
Lily:
And you used my twine
Basil:
That's right
Your ideas all helped out mine
Ginger, Basil, and Lily:
Ya'ay!
You never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Basil:
That's what it's all about.
Ginger, Lily, and Basil:
You never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Ginger:
And we all helped out.
Ginger, Lily, and Basil:
You never know what you can do
Until you try out something new
Root:
You never know.
Ginger, Lily, and Basil:
You never know what you can do
Basil:
What you can do
Lily:
What you can do
Ginger:
What you can do
Ginger, Lily, and Basil:
Till you try out something new.
