We Can Be Butterflies song from CBeebies Musical

Caterpillar takes to the stage to perform a song at the Summer Fruits Festival with Pineapple and Raspberry!

Caterpillar is shy at first, but during this song he learns the importance attempting new things with the help of his friends. Uncertainty can be challenging, but Caterpillar's journey into Butterfly can show your child that new experiences can be rewarding and unexpectedly awesome! Whether your little one is a shy Caterpillar, confident Lolly or quiet Pinecone, you can help them recognise their own confidence in new situations. 

CBeebies Musical: The Great Ice Cream Hunt is an hour-long summer treat bursting with music, laughter, and your favourite CBeebies stars. And of course, plenty of ice cream! 🍦😋 🍨

When all the ice creams go missing, Lolly the cow and Pinecone the hedgehog team up for a musical road trip to save the Empress of Storyland’s Summer Send-Off.

Featuring a star-studded CBeebies cast including Justin Fletcher, Maddie Moate, Alex Phelps, James Mackenzie, Dodge, Evie Pickerill, Puja Panchkoty, Jennie Dale, Rebecca Keatley, Rhys Stephenson, George Webster, Joanna Adeyinka-Burford, Gemma Hunt and Andy Day.

🎶 Lyrics 🎶

 What am I going to do? I don't really know.

Now I'm in front of you, let's see how it goes.

'Cause now I'm going to shake it out, so confidently.

I'm looking at a friendly crowd.

You're looking at me, so you see!

If you're shy of what the future brings,

'Cause the time has come to spread your wings.

You and I can do a thousand things,

And recognise we can be butterflies!

[spoken] Lolly! Pinecone! Come and join me! This is actually amazing!

If you're shy of what the future brings,

'Cause the time has come to spread your wings.

You and I can do a thousand things,

And recognise we can be butterflies!

If you're shy of what the future brings,

'Cause the time has come to spread your wings.

You and I can do a thousand things,

And recognise we can be butterflies!

Butterflies!

We can be butterflies!

[repeat x7]
