Shapes in space

It's always exciting, it's always new
It's up to the minute so please stay tuned
Good morning, good morning
Here's the Hi-5 news.

It's always exciting, it's always new
It's up to the minute so please stay tuned
Good morning, good morning
Here's the Hi-5 news
Kellie and Chats read and read
Little book, big book, great books they said
Tim was playing his ukulele
Like a guitar but smaller, you see
Kathleen lost things, all of them round
But a triangle clock was all she found
Charli tried out a fancy move
And I'm here to tell you it's a groove
Thank you for listening, have a nice day
News Reporter Nathan signs off today.

Body move #01

It's a rainy day today
I'm gonna dance the gloom away
Puddles, puddles on the ground
Gonna hop, jump, splash all around
Umbrella up to stop the rain
Gonna dance till I see the sun again
It's a rainy day today
Gonna dance the gloom away.

Word play

Time to finish playing now, time is almost up
But up until that time, I'll keep on playing, I won't stop
Making castles in the sand, I love to stay in play
But when it's time to stop, we'll say 'We'll play another day'.

Body move #02

What's the time? Tick tock, tick tock
That's the question we ask the clock
Hands move around till they reach the top
Let's start again, it's one o'clock.

What's the time? Tick tock, tick tock
That's the question we ask the clock
Hands move around till they reach the top
Let's start again, it's one o'clock.

Making music

What I'm looking for is a new music sound
A new type of instrument that no one's ever found
It may be something that goes thong or something with a beat
My music workshop, making music is so sweet.

What I'm playing now is a new type of sound
A new type of instrument that no one's ever found
I made something that goes thong, it's something with a beat
In my music workshop, thong-a-phoning is so sweet.

What we're playing now is a new music sound
A new type of instrument that no one's ever found
We made something that goes thunk, it's something with a beat
In my music workshop, thong-a-phoning is so sweet.

Body move #03

Did you hear that sound?
It's my flip-flops flapping
It's my flip-flops slapping
Flapping and a-slapping on my feet.

Did you hear that sound?
It's my flip-flops clapping
It's my flip-flops slapping
Clapping and a-slapping on my hands.

Did you hear that sound?
It's my flip-flops flapping
It's my flip-flops slapping
Flapping and a-slapping on my feet
Flapping and a-slapping on my feet.

Body move #04

My engine goes shutter, rattle and splutter
Cogs turn round and round
Pistons push up, pistons push down
Belt wheel spinning round and round and round.

No need to hike when we can take a bike
We found our missing thing that will make our bike zing.
