Spring 1: Volcanoes

What's it like when volcanoes blow?

This is something you ought to know

Pressure builds without interruption 

Then explodes in a volcanic eruption

 

When volcanoes erupt, here's what they do:

The pressure makes ash and lava spew

Boulders can get thrown through the air

Move back – don't stand and stare!

 

It's letting off pressure

It's not going to wait

Is going to get to that balanced state

Where forces are equal - equilibrium

Then the pressure starts building up again..

 

What's it like..

 

Remember this from your science classes 

A volcanoes forces are magma and gases 

The underground pressure gets too high 

And the volcano blows up in the sky

 

What's it like…

A long, long time ago, there was a volcano Living all alone in the middle of the sea He sat high above his bay watching all the couples play And wishing that he had someone too And from his lava came this song of hope that he sang Out loud every day for years and years

 

I have a dream I hope will come true That you're here with me and I'm here with you I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above-a Will send me someone to lava

 

Years of singing all alone turned his lava into stone Until he was on the brink of extinction But little did he know that living in the sea below Another volcano was listening to his song Every day she heard his tune, her lava grew and grew Because she believed his song was meant for her Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea As he sang his song of hope for the last time

 

I have a dream I hope will come true That you're here with me and I'm here with you I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above-a Will send me someone to lava

 

Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano Looking all around but she could not see him He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone But with no lava, his song was all gone He filled the sea with his tears and watched his dreams disappear As she remembered what his song meant to her

 

I have a dream I hope will come true That you're here with me and I'm here with you I wish that the earth, sea, and the sky up above-a Will send me someone to lava

 

Oh, they were so happy to finally meet above the sea All together now, their lava grew and grew No longer are they all alone with aloha as their new home And when you visit them, this is what they sing

 

I have a dream I hope will come true That you'll grow old with me, and I'll grow old with you We thank the earth, sea, and the sky we thank too

I lava you I lava you I lava you
