Lyrics

MY CHANCE TO DANCE
(The Seed’s Song)

Spoken: Shh! It’s wintertime.
Seeds are sleeping.
Can you curl up in a little ball?
Can you snore?
Snore, snore, snore, snore

I’m a little seed, sleeping in the ground
Winter winds are blowing all around
But I’m safe and warm here, curled up tight
And I dream that someday, I just might
Get my chance, get my chance to dance!

And here’s how I’ll do it. Will you stand up and join me? Here we go.

CHORUS:
I’ll poke my head up high
Point my leaves at the sun
I’ll twirl ’round and ’round
And have so much fun!
I’ll bend down low
When the warm winds blow
I’ll dance and dance
And grow and grow –
It’s my chance
It’s my chance to dance!

Alright! Back down, everybody!

Spoken: Listen! It’s springtime.
Seeds are waking up.
Can you stretch and yawn?
What’s going on?

I’m a little plant, growing in the ground
Springtime rain is falling all around
I can hold my head up! Look at me!
I’ve got soil in my eyes, but I can see
I’m gonna get my chance, get my chance to dance!

To dance! Here we go!

CHORUS:

Spoken: Look! It’s summer!
The plants are laughing!
What are they saying?

I’m a healthy plant, swaying here, in place
Summer sunshine shining on my face!
I am growing strong as I can be
Won’t you come into the field and dance with me?
You see, now’s my chance, now’s my chance to dance!

Let’s dance!

CHORUS:


Spoken: Hey! It’s autumn. Harvest time!
The plants are singing.
What are they saying?

I’m a happy plant and I’m proud I grew
Into something that’s very good for you!
Now I’ve got a secret inside of me
I’ve been growing seeds. Just look and see!
Soon they’ll get their chance, get their chance to dance!
Let’s all dance together!

CHORUS:

They’ll poke their heads up high
Point their leaves at the sun
They’ll twirl ’round and ’round
And have so much fun!
They’ll bend down low
When the warm winds blow
They’ll dance and dance
And grow and grow –
It’s their chance
It’s their chance – hey!
It’s your chance
It’s your chance
You gotta take the chance
Take the chance to dance!
