LEARN ENGLISH SINGING SONGS!

learn English Singing Songs: SINGING AND READING


Music, Lyrics, Poetry, and Prose are all intertwined with ease when taught, and inspired using motivational music. 
     My class uses music, lyrics, and singing daily to teach reading and auditory processing (listening) skills. Singing and Learning songs, builds fluency, articulation, voice, memory, expression, word attack, cadence, rhyme, rhythm, tone, pitch, vocabulary, decoding, phonics, and FUN! Students are motivated, empowered, freed from traditional reading lessons, and intrinsically motivated when learning to sing a song. Learning to read is a very unforgiving process for many kids, learning a song gives them a great accomplishment in a very short time. Songs enrich and bring to life a students world in a way that is powerful! My students sing up to 8 times per day during the first few months of school. All you have to do is give students the lyrics and start the song, all else is built into the process. NO FANCY LESSON NEEDED JUST GREAT MUSIC AND LYRICS!

Feist Sesame Street 1234 Lyrics

Feist Sesame Street 1234 Lyrics

 One, two, three, four

monsters walking 'cross the floor

I love counting, counting to the number four

 Oh your counting, counting with me

to one less than five, and one more than three

Oh, Oh, Oh, we're counting to four

Oh, Oh, Oh, let's count some more

One, two, three, four

penguins that went by the door

I love counting, counting to the number four

I see four here, I see four there

favorite number, nothing can compare

Oh, Oh, Oh we're counting to four

Oh, Oh, Oh let's count some more

One, two, three, four

chickens just back from the shore

I love counting, counting to the number four

Oh, Oh, Oh we're counting to four

Oh, Oh, Oh lets count some more

One, two, three, four

chickens just back from the shore

One, two, three, four

penguins that went by the door

One, two, three, four

monsters walking 'cross the floor

bahg bahg bahg bahg (repeat 2x)

Ohhh counting to four

Ohhh (repeat 2x)

counting to four (repeat 3x)
Fireflies lyrics
Fireflies lyrics

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep


'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep

'Cause everything is never as it seems


'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance


A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread


I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep

'Cause everything is never as it seems


Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)

Why do I tire of counting sheep
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep


To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell


But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar


I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep

'Cause everything is never as it seems


I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep

'Cause everything is never as it seems


I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep

Because my dreams are bursting at the seams


Katy Perry - Hot N Cold (Sesame Street Version) Lyric

Katy Perry - Hot N Cold (Sesame Street Version) Lyrics
Katy Perry
 Hi Elmo!
Elmo: Hi Ms. Katy
Katy Perry
: Are you ready to play "dress up"?
Elmo: "Dress up"?
Katy Perry
: You say that you wanna play "dress up", don't you?!
Elmo: Hmm
KP: C'mon Elmo, don't you wanna play?
Katy Perry
You wanna play so I wore dressed up clothes
Then you runaway, leave me here in this pose
How am I suppose to play with you?

You're up then you're down
You're running around
You're faster then you're slow
You stop then you go

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
I'm starting to ????

You
You don't really wanna play, no
You just really wanna go

We used to be
Just like twins, so in sync
Used to love, how we played
Now you just runaway
Didn't know, that you are gonna change

You're up then you're down
You're running around
You're faster then you're slow
You stop then you go

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
I'm starting to ?

Someone ?
Gonna chasing me all over
How to catch him, I wonder
He is to quick for me

You
You don't really wanna play, no
You just really wanna go

You're up then you're down
You're running around
You're faster then you're slow
You stop then you go


To The Sky Owl City

To The Sky Owl City 

Dada, dada, dadadadadadada
Dada, dada, dadadadadadada

Shipwreck in the sea of faces,
There's a dreamy world up there,
Dear friends in higher places,
Carry me away from here,
Travel light let the sun eclipse you,
'Cause your flight is about to leave,
And there's more to this brave adventure,
Than you'd ever believe,

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
'cause after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky... you take to the sky

Dada, dada, dadadadadadada
Dada, dada, dadadadadadada

On the hills of lore and wonder,
There's a stormy world up there,
You can't whisper above the thunder,
But you can fly anywhere,
Purple burst of paper birds this,

Picture paints a thousand words,
So take a breath of mist and mystery,
And don't look back!

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
'cause after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky... (you take to the sky)

There's a realm above the trees,
Where the lost are finally found,
Touch your feathers to the breeze,
And leave the ground,

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
'cause after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky... you take to the sky...(you take to the sky)

Dada, dada, dadadadadadada
Dada, dada, dadadadadadada

You take to the sky

FEIST"1234"
FEIST"1234"

One, two, three, four
Tell me that you love me more
Sleepless long nights
That is what my youth was for

Old teenage hopes are alive at your door
Left you with nothing but they want some more

Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, You know who you are

Sweetheart bitterheart now I can't tell you apart
Cosy and cold, put the horse before the cart

Those teenage hopes who have tears in their eyes
Too scared to own up to one little lie

Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, you know who you are

One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten
Money can't buy you back the love that you had then
One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten
Money can't buy you back the love that you had then

Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, you know who you are
Oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, you know who you are
Oh, who you are

For the teenage boys
They're breaking your heart
For the teenage boys
They're breaking your heart

(Oooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehh)

You're a good soldier
Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up
And dust yourself off
And back in the saddle

You're on the front line
Everyone's watching
You know it's serious

This isn't over

The pressure is on
You feel it
But you've got it all
Believe it

Katy Perry  Firework Lyrics

Katy Perry  Firework Lyrics

Do you ever feel
Like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again

Do you ever feel
Feel so paper-thin

Like a house of cards





Do you ever feel

Already buried deep
Six feet under
Screams but no one seems to hear a thing



Do you know that there's

Still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta



Ignite the light

And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July



'Cause baby, you're a firework

Come on show them what you're worth
Make them go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky



Baby, you're a firework

Come on let your colors burst
Make them go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave before they know



You don't have to feel

Like a waste of space
You're original
Cannot be replaced



If you only knew

What the future holds
After a hurricane
Comes a rainbow



Maybe the reason why

All the doors are closed
So you could open one
That leads you to the perfect...



Like a lightning bolt

Your heart will glow
And when it's time you know
You just gotta



Ignite the light

And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July



'Cause baby, you're a firework

Come on show them what you're worth
Make them go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky



Baby, you're a firework

Come on let your colors burst
Make them go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave before they know



Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through



'Cause baby, you're a firework

Come on show them what you're worth
Make them go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky



Baby, you're a firework

Come on let your colors burst
Make them go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave before they know



Boom, boom, boom

Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
JUST STAND UP
JUST STAND UP


Everything is gonna be alright


The heart is stronger than you think,

It’s like it can go through anything.
And even when you think
it can’t it finds a way to still push on, though


Sometimes you want to run away,

Ain’t got the patience for the pain
And if you don’t believe it look into,
your heart the beat goes on
I’m tellin’ you that,
Things get better, Through whatever
If you fall, dust it off, don’t let up
Don’t you know you can go be your own miracle
You need to know


If the mind keeps thinking you’ve had enough,

But the heart keeps telling you don’t give up


Who are we to be..questioning, wondering what is what

Don’t give up 
THROUGH IT ALL 
JUST STAND UP!


It’s like we all have better days

Problems getting all up in your face
Just because you go through it
Don’t mean it got to take control, no
You ain’t gotta find no hiding place
Because the heart can beat the hate
Don’t wanna let your mind keep playin’ you
And sayin’ you can’t go on
I’m tellin’ you that


Things get better

Through whatever
If you fall
Dust if off, don’t let up
Don’t you know you
Can go
Be your own
Miracle
You need to know


If the mind keeps thinking you’ve had enough,

But the heart keeps telling you don’t give up


Who are we to be..questioning, wondering what is what

Don’t give up
THROUGH IT ALL
JUST STAND UP!
THROUGH IT ALL
JUST STAND UP!
You don’t gotta be a prisoner in your mind
If you fall, dust it off
You can live your life
Yeah
Let your heart be your guide
Yeah yeah yeah
And you will know that you’re good if you trust in the good


Everything will be alright, yeah

Light up the dark, if you follow your heart
And it will get better
Through whatever


If the mind keeps thinking you’ve had enough,

But the heart keeps telling you don’t give up


Who are we to be..questioning, wondering what is what

Don’t give up
THROUGH IT ALL
JUST STAND UP!


If the mind keeps thinking you’ve had enough,

But the heart keeps telling you don’t give up


Who are we to be..questioning, wondering what is what

Don’t give up
THROUGH IT ALL
JUST STAND UP!


You got it in you, find it within

You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
Find it within you, find it within
THROUGH IT ALL, JUST STAND UP!!!

Secrets - One Republic 



Secrets - One Republic 


 
I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life is kinda boring
Need something that I can confess

'Til all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw me wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will like those years
Sick of all the insincere
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time!
Don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

My God
Amazing that we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Driving shiny big black cars

And everyday I see the news, all the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises, just write it into an album
Singing it straight to gold
I don't really like my flow, no, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will like those years
Sick of all the insincere
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time!
Don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

Oh, got no reason, got not shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'mma tell you everything

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that will like those years
Sick of all the insincere
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time!
Don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that will like those years
Sick of all the insincere
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

This time!
Don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

All my secrets away
All my secrets away
Sky Sailing Brielle:
Sky Sailing Brielle:There's a handwritten note pressed in the door of her screened in porch 
And I am sailing away recalling that day miles from shore 
She was still wearing white and robins egg blue, Her grandmother's dress 
When I left early this year, how I wound up here is anyone's guess 
When the new sides grow old and I start to feel cold I'll sail home again 

Goodbye Brielle 
Only seasons can tell 
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well 
I'll see you around our dear ocean town 
The frozen days we set ablaze 
Sent me drifting away 
Like a butterfly, I floated by and now you're alone 
I wish I knew  when I'll be back again 
So until then I wish you well 
My dear Brielle 

Strolling over the sand, cobblestone paths that wind through the trees 
Breathing the sweet ocean air makes a blue bird aware that she could be free 
When the new sides grow old and I start to feel cold I'll sail home again 

Goodbye Brielle 
Only seasons can tell 
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well 
I'll see you around our dear ocean town 
The frozen days we set ablaze 
Sent me drifting away 
Like a butterfly, you floated by and now your alone 
I wish I knew when I'll be back again 
So until then I wish you well 
So until then I wish you well 
I love you my darling farewell 
My dear Brielle


Lyrics to Apologize :
I'm holding on your rope, 
Got me ten feet off the ground
I'm hearin what you say but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me 
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say...


It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late



I'd take another chance, take a fall 
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat 
But it's nothin new
I loved you with a fire red-
Now it's turning blue, and you say...
"Sorry" like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid...



It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late



Bridge (guitar/piano)



It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
It's too late to apologize, yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah-
I'm holdin on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground
