LYRICS
What’s that sound?
It’s really loud
It sounds like this!
I wont be scared
I will not cry
It’s a fire drill!
I got this!

It’s a fire drill
It’s how we stay safe
It’s a little loud right now
But that's okay!

It’s okay to cover my ears
As long as I don’t cry
Line up quiet and we wait
Our teacher leads the line

It’s a fire drill
It’s how we stay safe
It’s a little loud right now
But that's okay!

We’re super dooper quiet
As we walk in the hall
I am such a brave student!
I’m standing nice and tall!

It’s a fire drill
It’s how we stay safe
It’s a little loud right now
But that's okay!

Wait outside, sound shuts off
The drill is almost done
Back in class and I think
Fire drills aren’t scary ... they’re fun!

It’s a fire drill
It’s how we stay safe
It’s all over, we’re done now
Enjoy your day!
