Listen Little Children is the first song from the VeggieTales episode Pistachio: The Little Boy That Woodn't. It is sung by Gelato in the original and everyone in the reprise.

Original[]
Gelato (Larry): Look at little Lilliana as her mother shows her
How to gather breakfast from a chicken or make milkshakes from a cow.
Even Steven's Juggling papa taught him when to take a bow. (Crowd: Wow!)
Nothing's missing-cuz they listened when their parents taught them how.
A mother and father know the ways to live life right.
So listen little children and your days will turn out bright.
Now you.
Ducks: Quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quaaaack...
Gelato: Wonderful! Now, harmonize!
Ducks: (harmonizing) Quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quaaaack...
Gelato: Beautiful! Now, Pig Latin!
Ducks: AckQuay, AckQuay, AckQuay, AckQuay, AckQuay, AckQuay, AckQuay, Aaaaack.
Gelato: Perfect! Now, Barbershop!
Ducks: Quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack quack Quaaa-aack.
Cricket (Khalil): Quaaaa-aack! Woo!
Gelato: So take these little lessons that I offer me to you.
They go through your ears and in your heart to teach you what is true.
A father loves his little ones he'll teach them what is right
And if you listen closely your days will turn out bright
Listen little ducklings and your light will turn out right.

Everyone: A mother and father know the ways to live life right.
