Verse 1 – Bug
Heels to your bum, make yourself small,
Curl up tight like a bug, that’s all!
Knees together, round your back,
This is the perfect swimming track!
Chorus:
Bug, Frog, Jumping Jack,
Fish, dancing Ballerina!
Verse 2 – Frog
Now open your legs, turn your toes out,
Like a frog who’s ready to jump about.
Wide and strong, but calm and slow,
It’s not a race — just let it flow!
Chorus:
Bug, Frog, Jumping Jack,
Fish, dancing Ballerina!
Verse 3 – Hopperman
Here comes the kick — give it a go!
Push the water with one strong throw.
Just like Jumping Jack jumps so high,
Kick with a pop and then you glide!
Chorus:
Bug, Frog, Jumping Jack,
Fish, dancing Ballerina!
Verse 4 – Fish
Now pull your feet back into line,
Tight and neat — you’re doing fine!
Like a fish with a pointed tail,
Glide through the water, smooth and pale.
Chorus:
Bug, Frog, Jumping Jack,
Fish, dancing Ballerina!
Verse 5 – Ballerina
Keep your feet closed, point your toes,
Like a ballerina who beautifully flows.
Hold the line and glide so clean,
You’re the smoothest the pool has seen!
Chorus:
Bug, Frog, Jumping Jack,
Fish, dancing Ballerina!
