Tadpole Blues
Yesterday I had a body and a tail
A body and a tail, body and a tail
Yesterday I had a body and a tail
Today I've got two legs as well
What is happening to me
Whatever can it be
I'm not very happy and that's because
I liked the way I was
Well blow me down, it's happenin' again
Happenin' again, happenin' again
Blow me down, it's happenin' again
There's two legs growing at the front as well
What is happening to me
Whatever can it be
I'm not very happy and that's because
I liked the way I was
Uh oh, what's going on, my tail is getting shor-orter
Tail is getting shor-orter, tail is getting shor-orter
What's going on, my tail is getting shor-orter
It's going, going, gone - oh no
What is happening to me
Whatever can it be
I'm not very happy and that's because
I liked the way I was
Well now I'm a frog and I've more or less got used to it
More or less got used to it, more or less got used to it
But sometimes a tadpole swims up to have a quiet chat
And I know what he's going to say
What is happening to me
Whatever can it be
I'm not very happy and that's because
I liked the way I was
Now listen - it's really rather nice to be a frog
And live at the bottom of a bog
So don't be concerned or worry about a thing
Come on and sing-sing-sing
Lah-lah-la-la-la-la-la, Lah-lah-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-lah, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-lah-lah-lah
Lah-lah-la-la-la-la-la, Lah-lah-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-lah, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-lah-lah-lah

Ribit ribit great singing room 19
ReplyDeleteI was just telling my Mum all about our singing today and then she opened Twitter and saw this and said "wow, excellent singing!" - Keeara
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Did you enjoy your first couple of music sessions Keeara? Did you have a music teacher in Invercargill?
DeleteWhat have you enjoyed the most in the 2 music sessions you have been to?
Yes I did enjoy them. No we didn't have an actual music teacher in Invercargill, but we did have Jump Jam every Friday where we danced and sung songs which I really loved! Today I enjoyed singing the Tadpole song the most and in the other session my favourite was when we sang There's a Rumble in the Jungle using instruments and actions.
DeleteLOVE IT...well done Room 19. Thanks for putting the words up so I could sing along at home :)
ReplyDeleteI showed my Mum and my sister and they thought it was awesome. I told my Dad to check out this blog because he is overseas right now. I told my Mum that we sang Count on Me by Bruno Mars because she likes it too. Ashley S
ReplyDeleteThat's really cool letting your Dad, who is overseas, know about our Blog. We'll have to make sure we put something up at least once a week won't we!
DeleteLovely singing room 19! What a catchy tune. Mrs Mowat.
ReplyDeleteI showed my mum and brothes and they thought it was nice.
