Product Description

There's a strange creature lurking down at the waterhole!
Some say it has no arms or legs, just a long tail and a big head. Others say it has long legs, a stumpy tail and big bulgy eyes. Sounds scary! Are you brave enough to find out for yourself?

A fun song for children between 5 and 9 years. They will learn about the polliwog (here's a clue; it's usually called a tadpole, ssh!). Along the way there's a subtle message about facing fears and finding things out for yourself.

For 2-parts (easy) or unison.

The Polliwog
words and music by Glyn Lehmann

CHORUS
Have you ever seen a polliwog
Hiding in the water underneath a log
Lurking in the shadows
Growing every day
I hope I never see a polliwog!
No I never want to see a polliwog!

Verse 1
Someone said they saw a polliwog
Down at the waterhole chasing a dog
It had no arms and it had no legs
A long swishy tail and a great big head

CHORUS

Verse 2
Someone said they saw a polliwog
Down at the waterhole chasing a dog
It had two arms and two short legs
A short stumpy tail and a great big head

CHORUS

Verse 3
Someone said they saw a polliwog
Down at the waterhole chasing a dog
It had a round body and two long legs
And big bulgy eyes on the top of its head

Coda A
I began to wonder about the polliwog
Why was it changing, could it chase a dog?
Although I was frightened
I must be brave
I really want to see a polliwog
Yes I really want to see a polliwog!

Coda B
Down at the waterhole with my dog
I went looking for the polliwog
Waiting by the water sitting on a log
Up jumped a little green frog

(spoken) And it chased my dog! Woof!
