Songlets
I'm a little meerkat, I'm only very small
 * Word play

But I'm really rather playful, I can curl up in a ball

I can hurry here and there, scurry up a tree

Look after my meerkat friends and they look after me.

I'm a little meerkat, I'm only very small

But I'm really rather playful, I can curl up in a ball

I can hurry here and there, scurry up a tree

Look after my meerkat friends and they look after me.

I'm a lion, see my mane
 * Body move #01

I can prowl around and swish my tail

I can show my teeth and roll my head

But I'd rather roar instead.

I'm a lion, see my mane

I can prowl around and swish my tail

I can show my teeth and roll my head

But I'd rather roar instead.

The sky is grey, it's raining
 * Making music

The thunder is rumbling

The storm is on the way

Clap goes the thunder

Shake hands together

And dance the rain this way.

The sky is grey, it's raining

The thunder is rumbling

A storm is on the way

Clap goes the thunder

Shake hands together

And dance the rain this way.

The sky is grey, it's raining

The thunder is rumbling

The storm is on its way

Clap goes the thunder

Shake hands together

And dance the rain this way.

An elephant's trunk is like a nose
 * Body move #02

And it reaches all the way down to his toes

It smells things right across the land

And it picks things up just like a hand.

I'm a cool, cool cat with a smooth, smooth walk
 * Shapes in space

I can swing my tail, I'm a cat that can talk

A sleek black fur from head to toe

And when I purr it's smooth and slow.

It's a cool, cool cat with a smooth, smooth walk

It can swing its tail, it's a cat that can talk

A leopard with spots from head to toe

And when it purrs it's smooth and slow.

I wanna swing through the jungle
 * Body move #03

I wanna leap from vine to vine

I wanna reach out and grab one

And have a swinging time.

I wanna swing through the jungle

I wanna leap from vine to vine

I wanna reach out and grab one

And have a swinging time.

I jump, jump, jump
 * Sharing stories

In the swamp, swamp, swamp

Then I hop, hop, hop

Till I stop, stop, stop.

We jump, jump, jump

Off the stomp, stomp, stomp

Then we hop, hop, hop

Till we stop, stop, stop.

I jump, jump, jump

In the swamp, swamp, swamp

Then I hop, hop, hop

Till I stop, stop, stop.

We jump, jump, jump

In the swamp, swamp, swamp

Then we hop, hop, hop

Till we stop, stop, stop.
