Apricot Chicken

Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

Lyrics

Dinner time is comin' clock's a-tickin'
I think I'd like to have some apricot chicken
The best bit of advice, is serve it up with rice
Try that tonight, and see if I am right
Dinner time is comin' clock’s a-tickin'
I think I'd like to have some apricot chicken

I play my ukulele strumming and a pickin'
But when it comes to dinner, it's apricot chicken
I like it not too hot, always have a lot
Together with some rice, it's really very nice
I play my ukulele strumming and a pickin'
But when it comes to dinner, it's apricot chicken

Everybody does it, they do the finger lickin'
When they've eaten lots of apricot chicken
It's the best thing, it makes you want to sing
This silly little song so why not sing along
Everybody does it, they do the finger lickin'
When they've eaten lots of apricot chicken

Clock's a-tickin', apricot chicken
Finger lickin’, apricot chicken

I had a pear and another pear
That makes two, a pair of pears
One pear, two pears - the perfect pair
One pear each if we share the pair

A Brussel Sprout

Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

Lyrics

There is no doubt that a brussel sprout
Has no muscle but plenty of brussel
And lots of vitamin C, very good for me
But it's just so sad they taste really bad
So when served with turkey I'm amazed when people say
It's the perfect dish on Christmas Day

Lyrics

CHORUS
Squawk went the parrot – squawk, squawk
Gulp went the frog – gulp, gulp
Meiow went the pussy – meiow, meiow
Hiss went the snake – hiss, hiss
Cluck went the chicken – cluck, cluck

Whistle went the birdie – whistle, whistle
Quack went the duck – quack, quack.

Would you like an elephant to sleep with you in bed – no!

Honey

Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

Lyrics

CHORUS
Just give me honey, sticky and yummy
Just give me honey today
It’s just so runny, good for the tummy
Just give me honey today – okay
Just give me honey today.

I like to eat it lying in bed
I like to eat it stand on my head
I like to eat it one slice then two
It’s just the best thing, my favourite thing to do – so

CHORUS

Carrots and broccoli, pumpkin and peas
Ham and tomato, lettuce and cheese
I know they help to work and to play
But when I’ve eaten them then you’ll hear me say – oh

CHORUS

Eileen likes icecream with apple pie
Charlie likes cheesecake and so do I
Maddy has marmalade once every day
But if you ask me you know what I’ll say – please

CHORUS

I Just Love Bananas

Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

Lyrics

I just love bananas bananas bananas
I just love bananas every day
But don’t leave the skin hanging around
Or pretty soon you’ll be lying on the ground
I just love bananas every day

I just love an apple an apple an apple
I just love an apple every day
Crispy and red, crunchy and green
And only yesterday I had 17 – or was it 23?
I just love an apple every day

I just love an orange an orange an orange
I just love an orange every day
Lots of yummy juice luverly taste
But leaves you with a pretty icky sticky face
I just love an orange every day

Ba na na na na na na, banana banana
Ba na na na na na na every day
Ba na na na na na, ba na na na na na
Ba na na na na na, ba na na na na na
Ba na na na na na na every day

Lyrics

Teachers: these lyrics are available in our Teachers Hub as a printable pdf 👉

Unlike a yoyo craze unlike a marble phase
I love it every day Spaghetti Bolognaise
Unlike a hopscotch craze unlike a knucklebone phase
I love it every day Spaghetti Bolognaise
I love it every day Spaghetti Bolognaise

Chicken and coleslaw three times a week
Salad and pizza good for a treat
But as I have the pick of the menu
I choose the same thing every day ‘cos

CHORUS

Hot apple crumble I like to eat
Cherries and ice cream they’re hard to beat
But when it comes to something that’s special
Something that’s chewy, something scrumptious

CHORUS (repeated)
