01 Sounds a Little Fishy to Me
Fish are jumping in the ocean
They are causing such commotion
Grab a paddle and grab a pail
We’ll set our sights on the biggest whale
Jump aboard but don’t rock the boat
Let’s sail the deep blue sea
It sounds a little fishy to meAll the baby fishes are grooving
And the octopus is moving
Grab your flippers and goggles too
The sea is waiting for me and you
Jump aboard but don’t rock the boat
We’ll sail the deep blue sea
It sounds a little fishy to meGrab a paddle and grab a pail
We’ll set our sights on the biggest whale!
Jump aboard but don’t rock the boat

It sounds a little fishy to me

04 Shark Practice
He’s scary as can be.
I’m glad he’s in the sea,
and not here next to me.
Oh me, oh may,
please swim right by!Fish leave when he’s around.
They all swim underground
trying not to make a sound.
Oh me, oh my please swim by!Oh me, oh my, oh me, oh my, I’m scared.

05 We Are Sharks
Mako: (rap solo)
A shark may have three thousand teeth;
Some on top, some underneath.
When we chew, we just might leave a mark.
That's what it is ... to be a shark!Sharks:
We're sharks, leavin' our marks?
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!
Not outlaws, just usin' our jaws.
We're sharks, leavin' our marks?Blue: Tell it, Hammerhead!
Hammerhead: (rap solo)
Got no bones, only cartilage.
But some'll have bodies as big as a fridge!
We only swim forward, we never back up,
And when there's plankton,
We're there to snack up!Sharks:
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!
Not outlaws, just usin' our jaws.
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!Blue: My turn!
Mako: Ok, Blue!
Blue: (rap solo)
You might see me comin' with my dorsal fin.
If you get in my way, I usually win.
Even a whale is afraid o' me.
We're sharks, not chickens of the sea?Sharks:
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!
Not outlaws, just usin' our jaws,
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!
We're sharks, leavin' our marks!
We're sharks, leavin' our marks! YO?

07 Colors of the Sea
Take a look around you, purple, red and white,
Ev'rything so perfect, ev'rything so right.
In each passing tide beams a radiant hue,
Sparkling rays of sunlight, yellow, green and blue.The colors of the sea run together so nat'rally.
The colors of the sea show the beauty in you,
And the beauty in me.Look into the ocean, near the sandy shore.
Like a magic rainbow, diff'rences give us more.
Painted by the sun, see the water glow.
Never hide from sunlight, let your colors show.The colors of the sea run together so naf rally.
The colors of the sea show the beauty in you,
And the beauty in me.No two friends are ever the same.
Each is special, it's true.
You have something that makes you shine
There inside of you that comes through.The colors of the sea run together so nat'rally.
The colors of the sea show the beauty in you,
And the beauty in me.
Show the beauty in you, and the beauty in me.
08 Here Come the Lobsters
Here come the lobsters!
Here they come, here they come, here they come!
Here come the lobsters! (repeat)Watch them crawling along, they are moving to our song.
Lobsters are invertebrates that live in the sea.
They don’t have back bones like you or me.
They have 10 legs and two are claws, crushing and picking is what there for.Watch them crawling along, they are moving to our song.
Lobsters have a great sense of taste and smell,
and that’s a really good thing cuz they don’t see too well.
If they lose a leg it’s a well-known fact, that lobsters simply grow one back!Here come the lobsters!
Here they come, here they come, here they come!
Here come the lobsters! (repeat)Watch them crawling along,
they’re moving to our song.
When lobster molt they lose their shell it’s true,
they grow a new one good as new!
They come in different colors it’s great to see,
but when you cook them in a pot,
they turn red as can be.There they go, there they go,
there they go, there go the lobsters (repeat)Watch them crawling away.
Bye, bye lobsters,
come back another day.
Bye, bye lobsters.
Lobsters, bye bye.

EYE OF THE TIGER (0:00)
Risin' up, back on the streets
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance now I'm back on my feet. Just a man and his will to survive.So many times it happens too fast
You change your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them aliveIt's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight.
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival.
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
and he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger…..Face to face, out in the heat
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stack the odds 'til we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive… (Chorus)WAKE ME UP BEFORE YOU GO GO (2:16)
Jitterbug, Jitterbug, Jitterbug….
You put the boom-boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts.
Jitterbug, into my brain
Goes a bang-bang-bang 'til my feet do the same
But something's bugging you something ain't right
My best friend told me what you did last night
Left me sleepin' in my bed,
I was dreaming, but I should have been with you instead.Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high.
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah)You take the grey skies out of my way
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day.
Turned a bright spark into a flame
My beats per minute never been the same.
'Cause you're my lady, I'm your fool
It makes me crazy when you act so cruel
Come on, baby, let's not fight
We'll go dancing, everything will be all rightWE BUILT THIS CITY (4:33)
Say you don't know me or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place.
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight,
Too many runaways eating up the night,
Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio.
Don't you remember?We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
We built this city
We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city
We built this city on rock and roll…FAME (5:55)
Baby, look at me and tell me what you see
You ain't seen the best of me yet
Give me time, I'll make you forget the rest
I've got more in me, and you can set it free
I can catch the moon in my hand
Don't you know who I am?
Remember my name(Fame) I'm gonna live forever
I'm gonna learn how to fly (High)
I feel it coming together
People will see me and cry
(Fame) I'm gonna make it to heaven
Light up the sky like a flame
(Fame) I'm gonna live forever
Baby, remember my name
(Remember, remember, remember, remember)
(Remember, remember, remember, remember)CELEBRATION (7:46)

Been working so hard, I'm punching my card
Eight hours for what, Oh, tell me what I got
I've got this feeling, that times are holding me down
I'll hit the ceiling, or else I'll tear up this town.Now I gotta cut loose, footloose
Kick off the Sunday shoes
Please, Louise, pull me off of my knees
Jack, get Mack, come on before we crack
Lose your blues, everybody cut footlooseYou're playing so cool, obeying every rule
Deep way down in your heart
You're burning yearning for, somebody to tell you
That life ain't passing you by.
I'm trying to tell you, it will if you don't even try,
You'll get by if you'd onlyCut loose, footloose
Kick off the Sunday shoes
Oo-wee Marie, shake it, shake it for me
Woah, Milo, come on, come on let's go
Lose your blues, everybody cut footloose
Oh oh, cut footloose (4x)You got to turn me around
And put your feet on the ground
Gotta take the hold of allWE ARE THE WORLD (16:26)
There comes a time when we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one.
There are people dying and it's time to lend a hand
To life the greatest gift of allWe can't go on pretending day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We all are a part of God's great big family
And the truth, you know, love is all we need.We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day so let's start giving,
There's a choice we're making we're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day just you and me.Well send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free as God has shown us by
Turning stone to bread and so we all must lend a helping hand..Chorus
When you're down and out and there seems no hope at all
But if you just believe there's no way we can fall. Well...well...well
Let's realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as oneChorus
MANIAC (19:58)
Just a still town girl on a Saturday night, lookin' for the fight of her life
In the real-time world no one sees her at all, they all say she's crazy
Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart, changing woman into life.
She has danced into the danger zone,
When a dancer becomes a dance, it can cut you like a knife,
If the gift becomes the fire on a wire between will and what will be.She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before.
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
And she's dancing like she's never danced before.On the ice-build iron sanity is a place most never see.
It's a hard warm place of mystery, touch it, but can't hold it.
You work all your life for that moment in time, it could come or pass you by.
It's a push of the world, but there's always a chance if the hunger stays the night.
There's a cold connective heat, struggling, stretching for defeat
Never stopping with her head against the windChorus
THRILLER (23:20)
It’s close to midnight and something evil’s lurkin’ in the dark.
Under the moonlight, you see a sight that almost stops your heart.
You try to scream, but terror takes the sound before you make it.
You start to freeze, as horror looks you right between the eyes.
You’re paralyzed!‘Cause this is thriller, thriller night
And no one’s gonna save you from the beast about to strike.
You know it's thriller, thriller night.
You’re fighting for your life inside a killer. Thriller!
Thriller, thriller night,
Ain’t no second chance against the beast with forty eyes.You know it's thriller, thriller night.
You’re fighting for your life inside a killer.
Thriller night! Thriller, thriller night whoo! -

The Defining Moment
DTES Concert Chorus

Since 1999, the DTES Concert Chorus has been an inspiring part of our community. Directed by Mrs. Baez, the chorus meets before school and gives students the chance to develop advanced musicianship in a supportive, creative environment.
Members learn to sing in harmony, follow a conductor, work as an ensemble, and build confidence as performers. Throughout the year, the Concert Chorus represents our school at community events, sharing music with local audiences. Students in grades 4 and 5 may apply by completing the chorus application and committing to twice-weekly before-school rehearsals.
