From Tom, Will P. and Will B. (Year 5)

Well I wish I was a goldfish,
swimming round and round.
But when the neighbour’s cat came by,
I’d end up on the ground.

End up on the ground, my love,
end up on the ground.
But when the neighbour’s cat came by
I’d end up on the ground.

From Campbell & Ivor (Year 5)

Well I wish I was a telescope,
with a big and pointless eye.
And every time the sun came up,
I would say goodbye.

I would say goodbye, my love,
I would say goodbye.
And every time the sun came up,
I would say goodbye.

From Tom & Zach (Year 6)

Well I wish I was a chicken,
with lots and lots of seeds.
My owners feed me every day
to fill up all my needs.

Fill up all my needs, my love,
fill up all my needs.
My owners feed me every day
to fill up all my needs.

From Jamie & Hamish (Year 6)

Well I wish I was a tortoise,
with a shell upon my back.
And every time that I fell down,
I’d get a nasty crack.

Get a nasty crack, my love,
get a nasty crack.
And every time that I fell down,
I’d get a nasty crack.
