Mr. Parr - Volcanoes Song lyrics

Did you ever see a weak spot on Earth?
Where molten magma comes
And reaches the surface

After lava cools, it forms solid rock
Adding to the land can form islands

Around the Ring of Fire is a volcanic belt
Divergent, Convergent
Subduction at the ocean's edge

Do you know about Hot Spot Volcanoes
'Cause there's a spark beneath

It just has to ignite the light
A blowtorch fire for a long time
Like Hawaiian Islands

Volcanoes are like Fireworks
Gasses bubble to the surface
Magma goes up-up-up
And might shoot across the sky y y

Magma squeezes up the pipe
Out a side vent, or atop the vent
The crater fills up-up-up
Then the lava flows down-own-own

Shield volcanoes are flat mountains
Slowly lava flows, and it will harden
Then the Cinder Cone produces ash and bombs
Cinders pile up making steep
Cone shaped hill mountains

Sometimes lava flows and the do explode
They alternate the layers
Composite Volcanoes

Like a lightning bolt, the ground will blow
And when it's time you'll know

Active volcanoes are live, alive
Extinct has died sleeping at night
Is the one that's Dormant

Volcanoes are like Fireworks
Gasses bubble to the surface
Magma goes up-up-up
And might shoot across the sky y y

Magma squeezes up the pipe
Out a side vent, or atop the vent
The crater fills up-up-up
Then the lava flows down-own-own

Boom, Boom, Boom
Pyroclastic flow, explosive doom
Unless it's quiet aa lava is slow
Pahoehoe lava's fast and then billows

Volcanoes are like Fireworks
Gasses bubble to the surface
Magma goes up-up-up
And might shoot across the sky y y

Magma squeezes up the pipe
Out a side vent, or atop the vent
The crater fills up-up-up
Then the lava flows down-own-own

Volcanoes are like Fireworks
Gasses bubble to the surface
Magma goes up-up-up
And might shoot across the sky y y
