A great song to get children to think about the issues of endangered animals. Simple enough for them to sing along, especially on the chorus. Upbeat and lively.

'A lovely song which the kids will enjoy! Very useful to go with my animals topic and thinking about our role in the world. Cheers'. Teacher on TES.

Great for:
Early Years Foundation Stage / Knowledge and Understanding of the World / Animals
KS1 / Citizenship / Animals and us / Wildlife
KS1 / Science / Living Things / Living things and their environment

LYRICS AND CHORDS

[intro] D A/C# Bm Gm Em A D A

D A
If the jungle was your playground and the forest was your home
G Bm A
And the meadows and the mountains were where you loved to roam,
D A G
If you woke up in the morning and all of this were gone, How would you feel?

[repeat above chords]
If your friends were all around you and your neighbours were there too
Every member of your family was living close to you
If you woke up in the morning all alone and in a zoo, How would you feel?
