Peek-A-Boo Crab
G C
Hiding in your shell all day
D G
I wait for you to come out to play
G C
I follow you around the beach
D G
I’m surprised how far you reach
CHORUS:
G
Peek-a-boo crab
C
Peek-a-boo crab
D
Peek-a-boo crab
G
Peek-a-boo crab
I wonder what you have to eat
On the seafloor for a treat
And do you ever get to sleep
Or do you march to your own beat
CHORUS
Come on won’t you sing with me
Maybe the crab will come out to see
What all this ruckus is about
Come on lemme hear you shout
CHORUS
Beat the drum shake the shac-shac
Tap very lightly on de crab back
He’ll wake up and you’ll see
He’ll come play with you and me
CHORUS
CHORUS
Be Myself
C G F
I saw a dolphin swim by
C G F
And I tried to go say hi
C G F
He swam away from me
C G F
It was like he didn’t see
C G F
Sometimes I feel different
C G F
Everyone around me seems the same
C G F
Sometimes its hard for me
C G F
To know just how I should be
CHORUS
F G C Am
But my mama says that I should be myself
F G C
And I shouldn’t be anyone else
I never asked to be a shark
It’s like I’m in the dark
It is difficult at times
A dolphin would have been fine
CHORUS
So I took my mom’s advice
And said hi once or twice
I made a few new friends
Now the playing never ends
CHORUS
CHORUS
By The Sea
A F#m D E A F#m D E
I’ve been out to sea for way too long
A F#m D E A F#m D E
That’s how I’ve come to sing this song
A F#m D E A F#m D E
The open air is very good
A F#m D E A F#m D E
But you didn’t show like you said you would
CHORUS
D E A F#m
Out by the ocean down by the sea
D E A
Singing a song for my baby
Floating around in this old boat
It’s so beat up but it still floats
Waiting around for the sun to shine
But it’s too late now and it’s time to dine
CHORUS
The sun is shining on the water now
It sparkles and it glows somehow
The breeze has kicked up some white caps
And I’m thinking it’s time to take a nap
CHORUS
CHORUS
Singing a song for my baby (X2)
Fun Fun Fun!
A D
I got my mom and daddy
A
To take good care of me
E
I get to run and jump
A
And skip and play all day
D
And at the end of the day
A
I lay down to pray
E
They tuck me in
A
I close my eyes and say
CHORUS
A E A
Its fun fun fun to be a little one
A E A
Its fun fun fun to be a little one
A D
Sometimes I am not nice
A
I don’t want to share
E
I hurt others’ feelings
A
Along the way
D
Then my mom and dad tell me
A
Always be nice you’ll see
E A
It’ll come back to you one day
CHORUS
I got food on the table
And help if I’m not able
To feed myself and show me the way
If I’m ever afraid
I hear my daddy say
I’ll protect you each and every day
Looking for a Lime
C G
I saw a starfish he had 5 arms
D G
An octopus he had 3 more
C G
A parrot fish he had a beak
D
But some say I was poor
C
But I am rich for today
D G
I have the sun and a beach to play
C G
I have my family who loves me
D G
I wish everyone could be rich like me
CHORUS
G C G D
Swimming around the ocean having a good time
G C G D
Swimming around the ocean looking for a lime
Mini Rap
Swimming around the ocean all day
Looking for a place to play
Me swimming all day and swimming all night
Swimming like a flying fish bout to take flight
Swimming swimming swimming all around
Swimming like a dolphin upside-down
CHORUS
I saw an anenomie on the reef
Protect a fish from its enemy
A barracuda swam right by
That fish was not shy
The coral polyps open and close
Filtering seawater there it goes
The beauty around amazes me
I wish everyone could see like me
CHORUS
CHORUS
Looking for a lime
Looking for a lime
Sea Turtle Blues
Blues riff in A (ADAEA)
A
I woke up on the beach one file day
D
I hatched out of my egg
A
And I began to play
E
My mama went and left me
A
And didn’t show me the way
Well I got my brothers and sisters
Hundreds of them
And we’re all in the same boat
But at least we can swim
But that sand is a long way out
And there are birds awaiting
Once we reach the water
It’s like I’m in a marine zoo
I said once we reach the water
It’s like I’m in a marine zoo
I got the sea turtle blues
And I don’t know what to do
I got a long way to swim
Don’t know where to begin
Maybe I’ll hitch a ride
In a current like plankton
I got the sea turtle blues
And I don’t know what to do|
I got the sea turtle blues
And I don’t know what to do
