Welcome to the School Bell Bop!

Open, Shut Them

Ready for Big School

The Drumming Song

Lyrics

 

Welcome to the School Bell Bop
We are here to learn a lot
Sing and dance and play the drum
Make some music, have some fun
At the School Bell Bop – bop, bop, boppity bop

Thanks for coming to the School Bell Bop
We’ve been here and learnt a lot
Sung and danced and played the drum
Made some music, had some fun
At the School Bell Bop – bop, bop, boppity bop

Open shut them, open, shut them

Give a little clap
Open shut them, open, shut them
Lay them in our lap

Creep them, creep them, creep them, creep them
Right up to your chin
Open wide your little mouth
But do not pop them in

Shake them, shake them, shake them, shake them
Shake them just like this
Roll them, roll them, roll them, roll them
Blow a little kiss

Falling, falling, falling, falling
almost to the ground
Quickly raise them up again
and roll them round and round

I’m getting ready for big school

I’m gonna make friends and it’s gonna be cool

CHORUS:
I’m ready, ready for big school
I can do anything, and I’m ready for big school

I’ll learn to write, I’ll learn to read
I’ll do my best and I will succeed

CHORUS

Some things will be hard, some things will be sweet
I’ll take my hat and some food to eat

CHORUS

Gettin’ ready for big school (x4)
I can do anything, and I’m ready for big school

I’m bigger now, preschool is done
I’ve packed my bag, got my school shoes on

CHORUS
