England - Attention! Attention!


The children in Year 4 have written and recorded Mayflower's Schoolovision entry this year. We are a Rights Respecting School, and our song is about the importance of us all understanding the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
If you want to sing along with us - here are the lyrics:

**CHORUS**

Attention! Attention! (Children's rights!)
There's a children's convention (We got rights!)
United Nations compiled (Give us rights!)
It's for the rights of a child (We got rights!)

1. We deserve good information, Every child from every nation
Internet, radio and TV (Give information! Give information!)
Other sources that won't harm us, Give us light and not much darkness
So we can live happily

2. If I am a refugee, The government should rescue me
And take me to a safe place (Take me to a safe place! Take me to a safe place!)
Please be bright, give me the light, Give me protection day and night
And put a smile on my face

**CHORUS**

3. We have the right to a choice, Big or small have a voice
Grown up "Listen to US!" (Listen to us! Listen to us!)
Listen to us seriously, Boys and girls, you and me
Not everyone does

**CHORUS**

4. We have the right to good food, If it's boiled, baked or stewed
We need water to drink (Give us a drink, yeh! Give us a drink, yeh!)
Keep our teeth clean and white, Keep us healthy and bright
Information! We think

5. Governments should spread the word, So each person can be heard
And they should know children's rights (Gimme the rights!  Gimme the rights!)
Children, adults, they should listen, This convention it should glisten
And we should all see the light

**CHORUS**

6. We have the right to a school, So we can learn to be cool
And the school should be free! (School is free! School is free!)
Encouraging the highest grades, So new Professors can be made
So you'll be just like me!

**CHORUS** x2

  4. A very important issue! Children shoul not suffer, they must be protected. We, adults should be punished for violation of kids' rights, especially those who start wars.
    Good luck from Ukraine!
