Five Ocean Friends: Count-Up Song

Five Ocean Friends: Count-Up Song by Flannel Board Fun

Lyrics:

Sing to tune of “Five Little Ducks”

Verse 1 – Fish

No ocean friends swimming all around

No ocean friends that we have found

Along comes a fish with a flip and a dive

When four more friends come, then we’ll have five.

We’ve got one (count them), we need four more to make five.

Verse 2 – Octopus

One ocean friend swimming all around

One ocean friend that we have found

Along comes an octopus with a squiggle and a dive

When three more friends come, then we’ll have five.

We’ve got two (count them), we need three more to make five.

Verse 3 – Tuna

Two ocean friends swimming all around

Two ocean friends that we have found

Along comes a tuna with a flash and a dive

When two more friends come, then we’ll have five

We’ve got three (count them), we need two more to make five.

Verse 4 – Shark

Three ocean friends swimming all around

Three ocean friends that we have found

Along comes a shark with a snap and a dive

When one more friend comes, then we’ll have five.

We’ve got four (count them), we just need one more to make five.

Verse 5 – Whale

Four ocean friends swimming all around

Four ocean friends that we have found

Along comes a whale with a spout and a dive

Now all our friends are here so we have five.

(Count them!)
