Campfire Singalong (Melon Ballers and Poliwags Cabins)

With apologies to Don McLean - American Pie
[video]https://youtu.be/iX_TFkut1PM[/video]







Along about 2 weeks ago

We can still remember Camp begins

And oh it made us smile!

we knew Cabin One had a chance

We’d make those others lose their pants

And maybe they'd be sad for just a while



Yes, Camp Belltree did deliver

And with delight we all did shiver

As Five cabins were set up

Every colour, members set

I can’t remember if I cried

As our points would seem to slide

But something touched me deep inside

When Melon Ballers hit their stride!



So bye bye Miss Melon Baller pie

We used a baller that was smaller, but the smaller didn’t fly

So them big ol melons started swelling as they spins

Singing’ this’ll be the cabin that wins

This’ll be the cabin that wins!



(ORIGINAL LYRICS:
A long, long time ago
I can still remember how that music
Used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
Something touched me deep inside
The day the music died

So, bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
And them good ol' boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin', "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"
So, bye-bye, Miss American Pie

the extended version would have stanzas for every area

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

some things are inside of this bottle
can you count up every one of them?
how close will you be able to get?
totals dizzying, brains working full throttle

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

did you spot that creature passing by?
I've never seen something quite like them
I'll research them for future campers
are they dangerous or would they like some pie?

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

singing songs under the starry skies
a fire blazing all through the night
and lyrics detailing our spirit
with a melody oh how the time just flies

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

what strange markings all our teams have found
some sort of nintendo character
at least that's what mistreil says it is
but can you see it? is your guess truly sound?

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

butterflies cicadas and beetles
there are oh so many bugs out here
perhaps we should doodle them all up
try not to get stung and watch out for weevils

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

we should detail all the things we did
send it to someone, perhaps a friend
6x4 would be a good card size
don't forget the stamp or else it'll be rid

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

summer homework, what the hell is this?
I thought this trip was just for some games
what? you say there are prizes involved
fine, I'll do this too, or else I'd be remiss

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

don't forget to grab a souvenir
a patch a plush or a jellyfish
many different varieties
be careful picking, they might not reappear

camping fun, camping fun
there are so many things to do
under the sun

camping fun, camping fun
every team will keep on playing
til one has won

and the winners shall be all announced
will you take home a rainbow jelly?
perhaps a really really long oar?
to only one team, a shiny pearl pronounced
 

Did a wholesome campfire song cover of a song from Adventure Time. Got my ukulele from me mum’s place and recorded this train wreck 😂🤧
Song choice - Oh Fionna by Rebecca Sugar

Camp Bell Tree - Adventure Time “Oh Fionna” by Rebecca Sugar

🎶 You’ll feel, this whole trips surreal

When you’re exploring

You won’t feel so alone

And not even boring


Just sit on a log with your friends

Right by the fire


Cause the way we sing tonight

In the woods, by the waves,

In the moonlight



Ooh, ooh, Camp Bell Tree

We’ve games, and fun, no fear

Ooh, ooh, Camp Bell Tree

Summers been a blast, hope that we’ll see you next year



Summers been a blast, hope that we’ll see you next year 🎶
wait omg this is amazing, ur voice!!!!!!!!!! ur so talented how
 
I did kind of a rival camp, cheer my cabin on song.
(If you read along with the music - read fast!)


Intro:
Yes!
We're at camp!
And our cabin is the Melon Ballers, number one above all others!
Soon!
We will win!
We're at camp!
We're the best!
We will win! Beat the rest! Number one!We're the best! We're at caaammmmp!!!!

Main:
We're the Melon Ballers and we're at camp!
We're in cabin one, and it is the champ!
Drawing lots of pictures with hands that cramp.
Earning poiiiiints, cuz we need that stamp!

Counting ants, which is tough, guessing off the cuff!
Is it wrong, is it right, did we guess enough?
Cabin one, we're the best, yes we're dynamite!
And b100ming guesssssed it exactly right!

But the birds, find the birds, can we figure out the crazy clues to find the birds.
So we try, and we cry, and we all go nuts! We just can't find those awful birds.

1 is done! 3 is done! Will we ever solve the clue to find bird number two?!
O. M. G. It's been solved! Moruken the genius found bird number two!

Brief instrumental.

Feeling good, check our points, wait! Are we behind?
But we got lots of points, how are we behind?
Double down, lend a hand, help each other out!
2nd plaaace! Melon Ballers shout!

Here we come, Ballers roll! To the Woodlands, go!
Moving fast, through our tasks, and our points still grow!
Can we roll, to first place, passing all the rest?
Yes we can!!!! We're the best!!!
Yes we can!!! We're the best!!!

Melon Ballers! Rolling forward!
Soon! To be the best!
Cuz we're at camp! And we're the best!!!!
It's caaammmp!!!!!

Instrumental finale

This is so fun to sing. And I could imagine us on the stage actually singing this.
 
Here's the song! (I made it.)
The grouping is easy to follow by the numbers, but if clarity is needed just ask please. 🐚

And as we sit in the warm sun,
we think of ways we will have fun!

Could you just come, with me?
It's getting dark, the sea.

Let's light a fire!
See the town spire?

(It shines) so brightly in the sky!
(As if) a gem that we could buy!

But we should rest up, (by the fire).
Toasted marshmallows, (I desire).

I lay so tired, I'll sleep.
All noise from me, no cheep.

Dreams of the sea, (for sure).
seashells and fishes, (so pure).

Another perfect day.
I wish we could just stay!
 
so, believe it or not, i only heard this song for the first time a few weeks ago, and it's low-key been living in my head rent free ever since. much like the the original, my lyrics also just repeat themselves twice, but they did take me at least an hour to write ajdkfkgkgl so-


[ Verse 1 ]
Got assigned to my cabin, turns out it's number 5,
Time to go and get points because I wanna win.
We started out in the sea, and gave ourselves a cool name,
And we're taking the lead, yeah we're taking the lead!

Now the forest is here, our critterpedia's gone,
There are bugs everywhere, but we're still number one.
Made my aesthetic blue, gotta show my team pride,
Sorry dear Evergreens, I'm afraid that you're-

[ Pre-Chorus ]
-done for, so are the rest
Of you, watch us goooooo.
'Cause we're on a roll -- unstoppableeeee.
Let's go for first place!

[ Chorus ]
Camp Bell Tree, collectibles calling me,
Three weeks of activities, clownfish, dinosaurs and bees.
Now there's just the mountains left, but we'll conquer that as well.
Nothing will stand in our waaaay, 'cause we're the Poliwags.

[ Instrumental Bridge ]

[ Verse 2 ]

Got assigned to my cabin, turns out it's number 5,

Now the forest is here, our critterpedia's gone,
There are bugs everywhere, but we're still number one.

[ Outro ]
We've got thiiiiiiis.
We've got thiiiiiiis.
We've got thiiiiiiis.
We've got thiiiiiiis.
 
Mine is a parody of the first verse of “I’m still here” from “Jem and the Holograms”
Original Song:

Parody:
Forests of trees, oceans, mountains high
Here at the camp’s where adventure lies

Feeling like you’re gonna touch the sky
Camp is calling is the reason why

New sights, sounds, and feelings in the air
No reasons at all for you to be scared

Crowds of people coming, don’t be shy
Frendships you make are gonna make you fly

Birds that sing in the morning
oh oh oh
Through the skies where they’re soaring
Oh oh oh
Ocean waves are roaring

Nothing to fear

We’re singing songs in the fire
We’re climbing higher and higher
Camp is here
So let’s be near

Now we can walk through the fire
No longer walking on wires
Laughs and cheer
The sounds you’ll hear
 
I've hated this with my entire being.
But here's a parody of Camp Camp's theme:

















My Parody:
Yooooooo~
There's a cabin I know
That't not too far away.
Locating all those waterfalls,
And hey, who's that? It's a mystery!
Now, it may sound like the woods
But cabin mates, don't worry
The Poliwags is the cabin for me and you!

We'll swim through seas and use bubblebeam!
Catch fish, bugs, balloons and fireflies
There's so many activities
Camping so happily~!
Welcome to Camp TBT!

A fourm so full of:
Drawing,
Gardening,
Flag Designing,
Oarfishing,
Counting ants & cracklers
Whirlpooling,
Admiring collectibles,
Post card making,
Recipe learning,
And Wisps,
Don't forget the graffiti,
And fossil hunting,
The singing,
Taking selfies
And your Poliwag is evolving~
Cabin Poliwags!!
 
Here is my song in the tune of Honeybee by The Head and the Heart <:

[Verse 1]
Camp Bell Tree
We're going camping here on TBT
Over the summer, making memories
Doing activities
Looking for that missing piece

Camp Bell Tree
We're going camping here on TBT
With all our cabins going through the trees,
the mountains and the sea
Seeing all there is to see

[Pre-Chorus]
And in the camp
Counting inside bottles, starin' at scribbles
Wondering
If we're ever gonna guess it right

[Chorus]
And at the end of these three weeks
We'll have made some memories with all our friends
This is the first, the first Camp TBT

[Verse 2]
Camp Bell Tree
We're going camping here on TBT
We named our teams, we have The Melon Ballers
Crystal Ballers, Evergreen
The Poliwags and Buzzy Bees

Camp Bell Tree
We're going camping here on TBT
All those collectibles to buy and win
Plushies and jellyfish
But what about that oarfish

[Pre-Chorus]
And in the camp
Counting inside bottles, starin' at scribbles
Wondering
If we're ever gonna guess it right

[Chorus]
And at the end of these three weeks
We'll have made some memories with all our friends
This is the first, the first Camp TBT

[Bridge]
Who's gonna win?
Who's gonna win?
We all have a chance
Let's pull through the end (Little by little we earn all our tokens)
Who's gonna win? (we'll be alright)
Who's gonna win? (We're repping our teams with our flags and our screams)
We all have a chance (we can do this thing)
Let's pull through the end (For a shot at that ocean pearl)

[Chorus]
And at the end of these three weeks
We'll have made some memories with all our friends

And at the end of these three weeks
We'll have made some memories with all our friends
This is the first, the first Camp TBT

And at the end of these three weeks
We'll have made some memories with everyone
This is the first, the first Camp TBT

to the tune of the first verse and chorus of chloe moriondos take your time:

I'm going fishing for an oarfish, or an oyster shell plush
I wanna win that ocean pearl, who do i have to crush?
You can't beat the poliwags, we're gonna draw all the bugs,
the fish and we'll win!
the fish and we'll win!

I wanna camp, oh, oh, oh
What will it take to pitch this tent?
Let me camp, oh-oh, oh
We won't lose this
camp oh-oh oh-oh
Just swimming with that oarfish
I'll take a swim, you grab the oarfish
I'll take a swim, you grab the oarfish
 
I’ve decided to parody one of my favorite songs. My apologies if you’re not a country music fan. ;)

Original Song and Melody: This Bar - Morgan Wallen


This Camp
I found myself at this camp
Making postcards and making new friends
Lying on the grass n’ gazing at the stars
Roasting marshmallows by the campfire in the dark
I found myself at this

Couldn't wait to go mountain climbin’
Forest hiking or deep sea diving
One week in, screaming “Poliwags, Go!”
We’re the best, and now you know
We’ll be up all night talkin’ for hours
But swimming is our only way to shower
Stand in our way, and you’ll feel that Poliwag Power!
I found myself at this camp

Making postcards and making new friends
Lying on the grass n’ gazing at the stars
Roasting marshmallows by the campfire in the dark
I found myself at this camp
 

Every night in my room
I want you, I need you
This is how I'll earn you, come on

Do not show resistance
and appear here before me
You can fit my line up, come on

Here, there, to campers everywhere
I believe you can make this come true
For me, I ask you to vote
We can share in this future
and this future will live on and on!

You have shined so brightly
in colors of rainbow
illuminating the ocean below

Hope is when this comes true
Finally, I'll hold you
In my lineup, you'll always live on

Here, there, to campers everywhere
I believe you can make this come true
For me, I ask you to vote
We can share in this future
and this future will live on and on!

You're here, there's nothing to fear
and I thank fellow campers for keeping us strong
You'll shine forever this way
You are here in my lineup
Rainbow Jellyfish will shine on and on!!



P.S.
I'm not actually this obsessive, but after the first few words I wrote I just rolled with obsessive lyrics because it made sense haha.
There are tons of wonderful entries and many that are deserving. I wish the best of luck to everyone!
 
I decided to do my song to ariana grande's thank u, next as a tribute to cabin one, the melon ballers🍈

[Verse 1]
Might have been evergreen
But I'm not a tree
Could have been more buzzy
Guess I'm not a bee
There's also crystal ballers
It's close but no thank you
I really like pokemon but
I'd still choose cabin one

[Pre-Chorus]
One got the skills
One got the knowledge
And one got the look
We're all so amazing
We've guessed and we've drawn
But that's not all we did
We chose the best pink
we're now melon ballin'
And now we can say

[Chorus]
Ca-bin one (one)
Ca-bin one (one)
Ca-bin one
Melon ballers really are the best
Ca-bin one (one)
Ca-bin one (one)
Ca-bin one (one)
Melon ballers ---

(I guess skip to post-chorus)
[Post-Chorus]
Cabin one~
Cabin one~
Cabin one~
Melon~ (yee)
Cabin one~
Cabin one~
Cabin one~
Ballers~ (yee)
 
I really hate this, but I'm struggling with this and really tried my best to come up with something, so here goes nothing.


Camp time! Camp time!
Camp time! Camp time!

It's time for
Camp Bell Tree
to start

Our summer fun is here
Five cabins competing
Trying to win
those precious pearls

Diving in the ocean
Climbing up the mountain
Foraging in the woods
Looking for statues

We're working together
Alongside our besties
In order to beat
the other cabins

We will not stop
Until the very end
When we are crowned
Camp winners

Three weeks
Three areas
Lots of things to do
Time flies
Soon enough
The end will be here

For every event
We give it our all
Until we're crowned
The best of the camp
 

LYRICS
I call this one, the Poliwags song song
Let's all meet up at Cabin 5 and sing our Poliwags song
Our P-O-L-I-W-A-G-S-S-O-N-G song

And if you think we can't evolve any faster then you're wrong

But it'll help if you just bring points along
Pol, Pol, Poool...
P-O-L-I-W-A-G-S-S-O-N-G song
P-O-L-I-W-A-G-S-S-O-N-G song

And if you think we can't evolve any faster then you're wrong
But it'll help if you just bring points along

P-O-L-I-W-A-G-S-S-O-N-G song
Ocean!
Done! P-O-L-I-W-A-G-S
Woodlands!
Almost!

It'll help, it'll help...
if you just bring points along!

Aww, yeah!
 
Ok, I tried my best. I can’t rhyme so sorry if some things don’t make sense but it made sense to me when I sing it in my head lol I would have kept going until the end, but writers block and couldn’t think of anything else.


Title: I’m a Poliwag

Lyrics:
My cabin mates are the Poliwags
Everyone wish to be part of us
Come join us as the Poliwags
In this cabin 5 filled with stars

I'm a Poliwag, You're a Poliwag
Poliwags here, Poliwags there
I'm a Poliwag,You're a Poliwag
Cabin tokens here,Cabin tokens there
Everybody cheers, Everybody reacts
In this cabin 5 filled with glee

Don't miss out on the collectibles
The clownfish, the bee, and the dinos are rare
Don't forget to post and submit what is due
Or miss out on those points and tokens, oh dear

I'm a Poliwag, You're a Poliwag
Poliwags (x4)

In this cabin, number five
Everyone hails to the Poliwags
In this event, everyone loves
Everyone is waiting for their token prize
Whether it's in the sea, the woods, or up the mountains
Nothing scares the Poliwags, yeah!

This is cabin five
We're competitive but friendly
We welcome all, yeah!
We're just awesome
Every day and every week
We take a chance to win it all
Ain't that great of cabin five

Everybody cheers, everybody reacts
In this cabin filled with Poli-wags

La la la la la la la, la, la, la la la.........
 
I used the lakes - Taylor Swift :)
I tried my best

Is it embarrassing how my first bottle guess was 400 off
I’m not cut out for counting the ants
Let’s hope I’m closer with the fish

Take me to the mountains, where all the birds could not be found
I couldn’t find them, but luckily, another melon did
Those snowy peaks look like the perfect place to camp
I’m setting off, but not without my gear

I do not see how the first masterpiece
Was Étoile I still see Wario
I’ve improve since then I got both Spike and Brittany
And I’ve never played pikmin

Take me to the woods, where I was told to write this song
My lyrics don’t rhyme, I’m sorry, I’m tried my best
Those spooky trees look like the perfect place to walk
I’m setting off, please don’t be any cryptids

I want the melon ballers to win
I want our cabin to win that shiny pearl collectible
Cause we are the best cabin
And we deserve the win
I can’t decide which collectibles to buy
Plushies or jellyfish
I still need to craft a postcard
I’ve been procrastinating I need to start

Take me to the ocean, where my camp has yet to go
Don’t sit near me on a boat, stay away, I’m seasick
Those wooden docks look like the perfect place to fish
I’m setting off, let's catch an oarfish
Yes, an oarfish
