Some
of my favourites:
I don't know but I've been told,
All Girl Guides are good as gold.
I am one, and I say it's true,
Guiding's great for me and you.
Chorus:
Sound off: 1, 2,
Sound off: 3, 4.
Bring it on down: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3 ,4
Sparks wear clothes the colour of pink,
They are Guiding's first strong link.
They are cute and they are sweet
Sparkie girls are fun to meet.
Brownies have an orange tie
They're second level, me oh my.
They wear a uniform that's brown.
Their big smiles can erase a frown.
Girl Guide level is the next,
Blue is the colour that we expect.
They say that camping is big fun,
And they earn badges one by one.
Pathfinders care a lot,
Their service projects hit the spot.
Green ties are the emblem that they
wear,
The Girl Guide promise they're proud
to swear.
Senior Branches are red, navy, gold,
They are Girl Guides on the go.
With many and widening chances to soar,
Some Girl Guides go overseas and more.
Leaders wear no ties at all
They come all sizes, big and small.
They share their time and talents too.
They make Girl Guiding great for you.
I said boom!
I said boom chicka-boom!
I said booma-chicka-rocka-chicka-rocka-chicka-boom!
Uh huh!
Oh yeah!
One more time...
Some Extra Verses:
Underwater - sing with fingers dribbling
against your lips
Loud - as loud as you can!
Slowly - as slow and drawn out as possible
Opera - sing in an opera voice
Down at the station, early in the morning
See the little puffer bellies standing in a
row
Up comes a man and he turns a little handle
Puff, puff, choo, choo, away they go
Coffee (x
4)
Cheese and biscuits (x4)
Prunes and custard (x 4)
Beef and carrots (x4)
Soup!
Leader - Let
me see your funky chicken!
All - WHAT'S
THAT YOU SAY?
Leader - Let me see your funky chicken!
All - WHAT'S
THAT YOU SAY? I said....
Chorus:
(everyone)
Ooo, ah-ah-ah ooo, ah-ah-ah ooo, ah-ah-ah
ooo,
One more time, now!
Ooo, ah-ah-ah ooo, ah-ah-ah ooo, ah-ah-ah
ooo,
Back in line, now! (Stomp feet eight
times)
Other
Verses:
Funky Chicken - dance
around in a circle with arms crooked
up as chicken wings
Mae West - flare
an invisible skirt
Dracula - one
arm up in front of face as if a cape was draped over
it, peek out
from behind arm, then repeat with other arm
Crocodile - make
a set of jaws with your arms and chomp
Elephant - one
arm up to your face as a trunk
Platypus - squeeze
your lips between your fingers and make
raspberry sounds
Porcupine
- shake fingers out in front of your body stiffly, as if you
were feeling
the back of a porcupine!
Bananas of the World Unite
(Arms
from hanging straight down go out to the side and up to a point above the head to form a banana)
Peel banana, peel peel banana,
Peel banana, peel peel banana
(Peel
yourself)
Slice banana, slice, slice banana,
Slice banana, slice, slice banana
(Slice)
Mash bananas,
mash, mash bananas,
Mash bananas,
mash, mash bananas.
(Mash
in the palm of your hand)
Eat banana, eat,
eat banana,
Eat banana, eat,
eat banana,
(Feed
yourself)
Go Bananas, go go bananas,
Go Bananas, go go bananas.
(Go
bananas)
(Leader sings a line, everyone repeats. During each verse, everyone slaps their hands
on their knees in a rhythm as if they were marching.)
Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not scared!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Tall, tall grass ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Gotta go through it!
(Everyone does actions as if parting
long grass)
Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not scared!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Icky, sticky, mud ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Gotta go through it!
(Actions as if you were trying to walk
through mud)
Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not scared!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Deep, wide, river ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Guess we gotta swim it!
Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not scared!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Tall, tall trees ahead!
Can't go over them!
Can't go under them!
Can't go around them!
Guess we gotta climb them!
(Actions as if climbing up one side
of a tree and down the other)
Goin' on a lion hunt!
I'm not scared!
Look at all the beautiful flowers.
Oh-oh!
Deep, dark cave ahead!
Can't go over it!
Can't go under it!
Can't go around it!
Gotta go through it!
(Next verse is done very, very quietly,
as if you were scared of the cave)
Goin' on a lion hunt
I'm not scared
Look at all the beautiful flowers
Oh-oh
Big, fuzzy nose ahead
Two green eyes ahead
Long, long whiskers ahead
Long, sharp teeth ahead
It's a LION!
RUN!!
(Slapping on knees goes very fast,
as if you were running... go through all the obstacles in reverse order and as fast as you can, with more slapping of hands
on knees in-between each obstacle.)
Up the trees! Down the trees! Run!!!
Swim the river! Run!!
Through the mud! Run!!
Through the grass! Run!!
HOME!
Split
the participants into 2 halves. Start off quietly and get progressively louder, ending as loud as you can!

Oh, no no no more mosquitoes.

spray.
SSSSSSsssssssssss!
Chorus:
Rise and shine and give God the glory, glory
Rise and shine and give
God the glory, glory
Rise and shine and (clap)
give God the glory, glory
Children of the Lord.
The Lord told Noah,
"There's going to be a floody, floody."
The Lord told Noah,
"There's going to be a floody, floody."
Get those children out
of the muddy, muddy,
Children of the Lord.
The Lord told Noah to
build an arky, arky,
The Lord told Noah to
build an arky, arky,
Out of twigs and hickory
barky, barky
Children of the Lord.
The animals they came
by twosies, twosies, twosies,
The animals they came
by twosies, twosies, twosies,
El-e-phants and kangaroosies
roosies
Children of the Lord.
It rained and poured
for 40 daysies, daysies
It rained and poured
for 40 daysies, daysies
Nearly drove those animals
crazy, crazy
Children of the Lord.
Now Noah sent dove to
take a peeky, peeky
Noah sent dove to take
a peeky, peeky
He came back with a
twig in his beaky, beaky
Children of the Lord
The animals came off,
came off in threesies, threesies
The animals came off
in threesies, threesies, threesies
Must have been the birds
and beesies, beesies
Children of the Lord.
This is the end, the
end of my story, story
This is the end, the
end of my story, story
So rise and shine and
give God the glory, glory
Children of the Lord.
(A repeating song: leader sings one
line, everyone sings back. Repeat the verse a number of times, each time getting louder and louder. Last verse should be very
quiet. After last verse, everyone yells "Tongo!" together.)
