V5

[Intro] [Fast, pulsing electronic beat: Boom-tiss-boom-tiss] [Sound of a howling wind followed by a "crack" of thunder] [Energetic speaking voice]: "What's it doing out there? Let's check the sky!" High in the air, way above the town, The water and the wind are dancing around! It changes in a minute, it changes in a flash, From a golden sun to a thunder-crash! [Verse 1 - The Sunny & The Cloudy] The SUN is a battery, charging up the day, Telling all the monsters it’s time to come and play! But then come the CLOUDS, like a big gray sheet, Casting a shadow on the houses and the street! (Are they fluffy? Are they dark? Let's go check the local park!) [Verse 2 - The Wet & The Windy] [Sound of rain pattering on a roof] The RAIN comes down in a pitter-patter beat, Giving all the flowers a watery treat! But if it gets cold and the clouds start to blow... The rain turns into a flurry of SNOW! And don't forget the WIND, the invisible hand, Pushing the kites all across the land! (Whoosh! Feel the breeze! Shaking all the leaves!) [Chorus] The Sky is a Mood! (The Weather Report!) It’s a giant, wild, and wonderful sport! Check the THERMOMETER, check the sky, Is it gonna stay wet or is it gonna be dry? Dress for the weather, prepare for the day, The sky has a story that it’s gonna play! [Verse 3 - Severe Weather & Safety] [Music gets a bit more intense—faster tempo] Sometimes the sky gets a little bit loud, With a THUNDERBOLT jumping from a heavy cloud! A TORNADO spins or a HURRICANE roars, That’s the time to stay inside behind the doors! Respect the power of the air and the light, To keep yourself safe and keep yourself right! [Bridge] [The beat drops out—just a soft synth pad] Is it Hot? (Sweat, sweat!) Is it Cold? (Shiver, shiver!) Is it Wet? (Splash, splash!) Is it Dry? (Dusty, dusty!) The weather is a circle, a cycle, a change, Never exactly the same... isn't that strange? [Chorus] The Sky is a Mood! (The Weather Report!) The sky has a story that it’s gonna play! [Outro] [The beat speeds up for a final "raver" finish] Grab your boots. Grab your hat. Whatever the sky does... We're ready for that! [Sound of a final "Zap!" and a bird chirping] [End]
