Ancient Egypt – John Oates 2011
In Ancient Egypt,
long ago, the pyramids were built using
blocks of stone.
A tomb for pharaoh and his queen, the pyramids of Egypt a
wonder to be seen.
Pyramids! Pyramids! Pyramids a wonder to be seen.
Pyramids! Pyramids! Pyramids a wonder to be seen.
The largest pyramids can be found in Giza near Cairo and
west of the Nile.
In honour of Khufu they were built. His house of eternity
his Pyramid.

Pick yourself up. Brush yourself down.
Let’s get things done stop messing around.
1) Little worries can make you sad.
Think of all the good things and not just the bad.
Problems come and problems go.
Get up move on or spend your days feelin’ low.
2) Falling out and breaking friends.
Such a waste of time we all know how it ends.
Take the time to talk things through.
Listen and learn you’ll hear the other side too.
