Slippery fish, slippery fish, splashing in the water. Slippery fish, slippery fish, GULP GULP GULP!
OH NO! he was eaten by an octopus!
OH NO! he was eaten by a tuna fish!
OH NO! he was eaten by a Great White Shark!
Oh NO! he was eaten by a humongous whale!
BURP! Pardon me! (For the slippery fish and the tuna fish, you can cup your hands and make them move through the water. The octopus is a hand with wiggling fingers. The great white shark is an open hand on top of the head. The whale is both hands spread wide. The finger play ends with putting your hand to your mouth to suppress a loud Burp)

Song: Slippery Fish

Octopus, octopus, wiggling in the water. Octopus, octopus, GULP GULP GULP!

Tuna fish, tuna fish, gliding through the water. Tuna fish, tuna fish, GULP GULP GULP!

Great White Shark, Great White Shark, lurking in the water Great White Shark, Great White Shark, GULP GULP GULP!

Humongous whale, Humongous whale, spouting in the water Humongous whale, humongous whale, GULP GULP GULP!
