This cute, catchy song is about various types of rocks. A sample of the lyrics include, "There are many shapes and sizes of rocks, everything from pebbles to great, big blocks. Slate is used on roofs and sheets and granite is used under stepping fee...t. You can grind and weather them away until you get soil and clay. Flint can be used if you need a knife and chalk can be used if you need to write. Impermeable rocks won't let water through and permeable ones certainly do. Marble is hard and used on floors. Limestone is soft and full of pores....." (01:53)
