Once there were a little boy called Ellis
He lived on the street
One day he was scouted by Leeds United
First game scored 6 goals
At 15 made his Leeds debut for the first team
At 20 picked for England under 21 squad
Before you know it he was paid £150 million a second

In winter all the leaves go
In winter some snow comes
In winter it is cold
and in winter it is fun to play in the snow.

Teachers are here to help
Teachers are here to teach
Teachers are here to help
Teachers are kindness givers
Teachers are powerful
Teachers are our heroes
Teachers change the world one child at a time
Thank you teachers for helping everyone grow

A Fire Phoenix
was covering a volcano.
As big as a country
As big as the sea and as dangerous as a monster
breathing fire and eating bones.

Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me open my present.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me catch a pheasant.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me go to the moon.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me blow up the balloon.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me eat my cake.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me stay up late.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me kick the ball.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me stand up tall
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me look at Peter.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me drink a litre.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me have a party.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me get a smarty.
Let me do it, let me do it
Let me do a roll.
Let me do it, let me do it,
Let me shoot a goal.

On my way to the bus I saw Christmas.
It was a calm Christmas.
It was a cool, calm Christmas.
It was a cold, cool, calm Christmas.
It was a caring, cold, cool, calm Christmas.
It was a charming, caring, cold, cool, calm Christmas.
It was a cheerful, charming, caring, cold, cool, calm Christmas.
And it wanted to get me in the Christmas spirit.

Pretty Penny‘s hair is as stiff as metal
Elastic as a rubber band
Neat as a beautiful Princess
Nearly a thousand medals
Younger than an eighteen year old girl

I have lots of friends – like a dolphin.
I’m as cute as a porcupine.
My hair is like a brown bear.
My teeth are as wobbly as a jellyfish.
My playing is as creative as imagination.
I’m as smart as a scientist.
My skin is as shiny as the sun .
My jokes are as funny as a clown.
I’m really talkative like a parrot.

A birthday version of Michael Rosen’s poem.

I went to the shop
to get me a cake.
Oh dear!
They gave me a snake.
Oh dear!
Look what I got?
Do I want that?
No I do not!

I went to the shop
to get me a game.
Oh dear!
They gave me a name.
Oh dear!
Look what I got!
Do I want that?
No I do not!

I went to the shop
to get me a gift.
Oh dear!
They gave me a lift.
Oh dear!
Look what I got!
Do I want that?
No I do not!

I went to the shop
to get me a party.
Oh dear!
They gave me a Smartie.
Oh dear!
Look what I got!
Do I want that?
