1F have been writing and performing their own rhyming couplet for the song ‘Down by the Bay’. Below are some the children wanted to share with you. Enjoy! 😊

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say,

‘Did you ever see a ghost

Looking at a post’

Down by the bay!

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say,

‘Did you ever see a crocodile

walking a mile’

Down by the bay!

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say,

‘Did you ever see a gorilla

On a papilla’

Down by the bay!

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say,

‘Did you ever see a baboon

Popping a balloon’

Down by the bay!

Down by the bay

Where the watermelons grow

Back to my home I dare not go

For if I do

My mother will say,

‘Did you ever see a computer

Wearing a verruca’

Down by the bay!
