"SLIDE" by DANI GRIFFIN

LYRICS
Slide to the left
Slide to the right
Step to the left and
Step to the right
You just slide to the left
Slide to the right
Hop to the left and
Hop to the right and then
Hop forward and
Get ready! Go!

Jump up
Put your feet down
And then shake yourself
And then turn around
Jump up
Put your feet down
And then shake yourself
And then turn
Slowly now
Slow it down.

" I RIDE MY BIKE" by DANI GRIFFIN

LYRICS
Turn right at the traffic light
Go straight on
Turn left at the pet shop
Go straight on

Next to the bridge
Behind the school
Under the sun
Here’s the swimming pool!

I ride my bike to the swimming pool!
I ride my bike to the swimming pool!
I ride my bike to the pool!

"TRAVEL WITH US" by DANI GRIFFIN

LYRICS

I’m on a plane
It’s a holiday
I’m visiting friends
In the USA

I’m on a boat
Sailing on the sea
I’m going to Pisa
In Italy

We go by boat, train or bus.
Come on, travel with us!
We go by helicopter, taxi,
moped or lorry.
Come on, travel with us!

"A FRIEND" by DANI GRIFFIN

LYRICS
What a day!
I had a so-so day,
I’m feeling kind of sad.
Everything I do comes out wrong.

It’s okay
Because I have my friends.
I always count on them.
My friends will pick me up again.

Someone who will always cheer you up,
Give so much,
That’s a friend.
Someone you are always glad to see,
I call that a friend.

A friend!

"LONDON TOWN" by DANI GRIFFIN

LYRICS
The Thames is shorter than The Seine.
London Bridge is longer than a plane.
The London Eye is taller than Big Ben
And London is bigger than Berlin.

She’s travelling around London town
On the Tube,
On a bus.
She’s travelling around London town
On the Tube,
On a bus.

A black taxi is faster than a man.
A red bus is slower than a van.
This lake is smaller than the sea.
That tower is taller than a tree.

"AFRICA" by DANI GRIFFIN

LYRICS
I’m riding on a camel,
Sleeping on a dune.

I’m walking in the jungle
In the afternoon.

And everywhere people stare.
Why at me?
Who is strange?

Me or them?

Then we smile, and
now we’re friends.

Hassan in Morocco
Nicole in the Congo
I meet a lot of kids.

Africa
We look for a leopard
We dance in the desert
We climb a pyramid
Africa

I’m from Chicago
And you’re from Spain
She’s from Morocco
We’re all the same

You don’t like somebody
Because of where the’re from
You like someone because they’re nice
And because they’re fun.

"NOBODY´S LISTENING" by DANI GRIFFIN

Lyrics:
(CHORUS)
You who talk with your hands
Don't you understand?
Nobody is listening
Right is stronger than might
No reason to fight
Nobody is listening to you, no!
Noone's listening to you, no, no!

Two kids, they talk.
"Get lost! Shut up!"
They hurt with words
But that's not enough.
They use their hands
To show who's tough.
They hit, they cry.
They hurt, and why?
When you start to fight
Please stop and ask why.

(CHORUS)

Big Joe thinks he's cool
Because he wins every fight.
He thinks being strong
Is better than being right.
He thinks scaring people
Is better than being liked.
The biggest and the strongest
So often win the day.
It doesn't mean they're right,
Just that they got their way.

(CHORUS)

Violence on the TV
Is fantasy, fantasy.
Violence in reality
Means people cry or bleed.
The need to hurt is a sickness
It's a plague, it's a big mess.
Don't buy it, don't try it.
Black eyes are not prizes.
So hey! Use some words,
Not your hands.
Take a stand!

(CHORUS)

WHY...? BECAUSE...
