I can't guarantee this is accurate, but this is what I remember of it:

"Picture Pages, Picture Pages, time again for Picture Pages,
Time to get your crayons and your pencils.
You can play with Picture Pages, (learn some things...?) with Picture Pages.
Time to watch Bill Cosby do a Picture Page with you."

I'm unsure about that third line.

opening theme:
PicturePages, PicturePages, time to get your PicturePages,
Time to get your crayons and your pencils.
PicturePages, PicturePages, open up your PicturePages,
Time to watch Bill Cosby do a PicturePage with you.

closing theme:
PicturePages, PicturePages, lots of fun with PicturePages,
Lots of fun with crayons and with pencils.
You can play with PicturePages, fill your day with PicturePages,
Till Bill Cosby does another PicturePage with you.

As I recall, CK was the original host of PP, before BC; I believe the lyrics were similar.

In a later version, still hosted by BC (circa 1981, when the show was half an hour, and known--at least briefly--as "Wake Up"), the third line was:
With a set of PicturePages, that you get from PicturePages,
...but I don't remember the rest.
