We Spot Economics!
From Lesson 15 - Spotting Economics:
From Africa to Ice Cream
(Tune: If You're Happy and You Know It)

1. I spot economics in a factory! (shout) Yippee!
   It's a capital resource, as you can see.
   Economics is around.
   It is easy to be found.
   Economics is around me, yes-sir-ee!
   
   
2. I spot economics in a grocery store! Yippee!
   The consumers buy the goods, as you can see.
   Economics is around.
   It is easy to be found.
   Economics is around me, yes-sir-ee!
   
   
3. I spot economics when we trade our toys! Yippee!
   It is bartering we do, as you can see.
   Economics is around.
   It is easy to be found.
   Economics is around me, yes-sir-ee!
   
   
4. I spot economics when there's not enought! Yippee!
   It is scarcity we have, as you can see.
   Economics is around.
   It is easy to be found.
   Economics is around me, yes-sir-ee!
   
   
5. I spot economics in _________! Yippee!
   It is _______________, as you can see.
   Economics is around.
   It is easy to be found.
   Economics is around me, yes-sir-ee!
   
   Optional Chorus:
   I spot economics everywhere I look! Yippee!
   Left and right and up and down, it's there to see.
   Economics is around.
   It is easy to be found.
   Economics is around me, yes-sir-ee!
