LEARNING ENGLISH THROUGH SONGS WITH JULES

LYRICS: London rap song

Big Ben is not a person
Big Ben is not a clock
Big Ben is not a tower
It’s a bell: ding dong
A Science museum, to learn about space
Astronauts, rockets, awesome place
At the British Museum you can see
Egyptian mummies; it’s free!
Big Ben…
700 species in London Zoo
Reptiles*, Amphibians, Invertebrates too *[1st time only]
Penguins waddle, crocodiles snap
No you can’t stroke a crocodile on your lap!
Big Ben…
Round and round goes The London Eye
It’s 130 meters high
Buckingham Palace is where The Queen sleeps
And The Prime Minister at Downing Street.
(SUNG) If you’re tired, and need to eat
get fish n chips and a cup of tea.

Big Ben…

(Repeat “My dad…”)

LYRICS: She’s the coolest

She sings in a band, she makes up all the songs
She makes a big effort, she always does her best
She’s the coolest, she’s got style, she’s got style (x2)
She does her homework, she does it on the bus
She does well in exams, but she still makes time for fun
She’s the coolest, she’s got style, she’s got style (x2)
She always does her make-up , she always does her hair
She makes people smile, but she doesn’t make fun of people
She’s the coolest, she’s got style, she’s got style (x2)

LYRICS: Milkshakes

Let’s make a milkshake a chocolate milkshake (x2)
Pour in the milk, pour it in
Scoop out the ice cream, scoop it out
Cut up the banana, cut it up
Put in the cocoa, put it in
Let’s make a milkshake a strawberry milkshake (x2)
Pour in the milk, pour it in
Scoop out the ice cream, scoop it out
Cut up the banana, cut it up
Put in the strawberries, put them in
Let’s make a milkshake a vanilla milkshake (x2)
Pour in the milk, pour it in
Scoop out the ice cream, scoop it out
Cut up the banana, cut it up
Put in the vanilla, put some in
We’ve made a milkshake (x4)

LYRICS:  Oh no!  What happened?

Oh no! What happened?  Oh no! What happened? Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! What happened? Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! What happened?
Mum and Dad said to me, we’re going on holiday, so we flew far away, we got there and I said:
What happened to the pool?
What happened to the water park?
What happened to the go karts?
What happened to the motorbikes? (Repeat..”What happened…section)
Mum and Dad said to me, we’re going on holiday, so we flew far away, we got there and I said:
What happened to the park?
What happened to the hot air balloon ride?
What happened to the fishing?
What happened to riding mountain bikes?
Oh no! What happened?  Oh no! What happened?…
Mum and Dad said to me, we’re going on holiday, so we flew far away, we got there and I said:
I’m not going on a walk!
I’m not going to bed!
I’m not going to read!
I’m not going to an art gallery!
Oh no! What happened?  Oh no! What happened?…

Shake it out to the left, Shake it out to the right

Slide back, shuffle forward, shuffle forward, slide back

Slide back, shuffle forward, shuffle forward, slide back
Crouch down, get back up, turn around, chill out
