Can We Fix It?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Can We Fix It?" is the name of the theme song from the children's television programme Bob the Builder, produced by Hot Animation. The title is derived from the main character's catchphrase, a query towards the rest of the cast when presented with a challenge. The chorus of the song features this phrase prominently, as well as the standard response: "Yes, we can!"
