The Water Cycle Song Lyrics
Somewhere, out there,
The sun shining in the puddle
Thats something what we call,
The Water Cycle.
Water from the little puddle turns to gas,
EVAPORATION
The gas forms into puffy clouds,
CONDENSATION
The clouds get heavy and the rain pours down,
PRECIPITATION
And more puddles on the ground
Oh the water cycle round and round
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down
Water in the sky, in the ocean, in the ground
Its all in a cycle going round and round.
Some clouds look like a horses tail, thats cirrus (cirrus!)
Some clouds look like cauliflower, thats cumulus (cumulus!)
Some clouds look like a blanket of grey, thats stratus (stratus!)
They are high clouds, low clouds, and in between clouds
Fog on the ground is also rarely seen clouds
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Oh the water cycle round and round
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down
Water in a river, in a glass, in a cloud,
Its all in a cycle going round and round.
When warm air meets cold air trouble brews
That could mean a storm and thats bad news,
A hurricane can form when that happens near warm water
Look out if that storm reaches land.
Get out of the way, grab your sons and daughters.
Crash!
Bash!
Boom!
And Kabam
Oh no! We forgot uncle...
Dan
Im ok, Im alright, I was just hiding in the garbage can.
He was hiding in the garbage can
Oh the water cycle round and round
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down
Water in a person, in a well deep down,
Its all in a cycle going round and round.

WATER CYCLE RAP LYRICS
I represent the movement of water
That’s my purpose
Weather on above or below the earth’s surface
In the continuous cycle my work’s never done
Cuz I’m driven by the energy from the sun
I travel through the sea through the air through the ground
You could say that water really gets around
When in fact
Most water is just chilling in the oceans
Only a small fraction is really in motion –at any given time yo
But that’s the way it goes – when we are studying the voyages of H 2 O
In the cycle water changes states at various places
The three states being ice liquid and water vapor
But the cycle strays from the norm
Cuz through the process
Water still keeps the same structural form
While other cycles involve chemical change
Water may change states but its structure stays the same
(Chorus) x 2
I rise to the sky from the sea below
Then down to the ground as rain and snow
I keep it moving moving
Cuz I’m the water cycle
Moving moving
Cuz I’m the water cycle
So when water transforms from liquid to gas
And rises up into the atmosphere that’s evaporation
A process made easy by energy from the Sun
Also known as Solar Radiation
And when there’s water vapor in the sky it reforms
Into liquid water drops
That’s condensation
And when this water falls back down to earth as rain snow hail sleet
That’s precipitation
Plants have their own type of evaporation
Through their stomata, which is called transpiration
So collectively the term used for transpiration plus our other evaporation is
Evapotranspiration
Two more terms to add to your collection
The movement of water through the air is evection
And speaking of keeping it moving understand that
Run off is water flowing across the lands
(Chorus) I rise to the sky from the sea below
Then down to the ground as rain and snow
I keep it moving moving
Cuz I’m the water cycle
Moving moving
Cuz I’m the water cycle
