You Can Roll An Orange Lyrics

You can roll an orange but you can’t roll a red
You can’t roll a red, you can’t roll a red
You can roll an orange but you can’t roll a red
A red just cannot be rolled!

You Can Roll An Orange Song Activities

Music

There are nine orange themed songs to introduce each colour. Singing funny songs helps to awaken a child's humour!

Each of the nine orange themed songs has a different tempo (the speed of the beat).

Give each child a sheet of paper (e.g. news print, newspaper or magazine paper). Play the song and in time to the beat (the steady pulse) rip the paper.

Visual Art

Make a colour wheel. Show the primary colours, red, yellow and blue in the inner circle; then the secondary colours orange, green and purple in the outer circle.

Let children experiment with mixing red and yellow paint together to make the colour orange.

Science

'Walking water experiment' Place three same size glasses (short wider glasses or canning jars work best) in a row. Fill the outside glasses with water nearly all the way to the top; add yellow dye or food colour to one of the outside glasses and red dye or food colour to the other outside glass. Leave the middle glass empty. Fold 2 paper towels into thirds, stick one end of the paper towel into the yellow glass and the other end into the middle empty glass, stick one end of the other paper towel into the red glass and the other end into the empty middle glass. Watch what happens!

Drama

Listen to all of the nine themed orange songs. You can peel, squeeze, roll, squash, pick, buy, slice, drink, hold.

Act out one of the themes for others to guess.

Literacy

How to get your music

Downloading your songs is quick and easy — here's everything you need to know.

How do I download my songs after I buy them?

Your songs are ready to download as soon as your order is confirmed. There are three easy ways to get them:

1. On the confirmation page — right after you check out, look for the “Your music downloads” section and click the Download button. Your song saves straight to your device.

2. From your confirmation email — open the order confirmation email from Love to Sing and click “Download your music”. This opens your order page, where you can download each item.

3. From your account, any time — go to account.lovetosing.com, sign in with the same email you used at checkout, click Orders, open your order, and click Download under “Your music downloads”.

Your songs are MP3 files that play on any phone, tablet, or computer. If anything doesn’t work, just reply to your order confirmation email and we’ll see if we can help.

Where can I find my downloads later?

Sign in to your account at account.lovetosing.com, go to Orders, open your order, and you'll see “Your music downloads” with a button for each item. Be sure to use the same email address you checked out with.

What file format are the songs?

Every song is delivered as a high-quality MP3 that plays on any phone, tablet, or computer — no special software or app required.

Do I need an account to download?

No — you can download straight away from your order confirmation page without creating an account. To get back to your files later, just sign in (or create a free account) using the same email you used at checkout.

I can't find my download or the button isn't working. What should I do?

First, check your spam or junk folder for your order confirmation email, and make sure you're signed in with the email you used at checkout. If you're still stuck, reply to your confirmation email or contact us and we'll send your files straight to you.

How do I download on a phone or tablet?

Tap the Download button and your song saves to your Files or Downloads app. On an iPhone, if the song starts playing instead of saving, tap the Share icon and choose “Save to Files”.

How many times can I download my purchase, and how long do I have?

You can download each item up to 3 times, and your download links stay active for 6 months from your purchase. That's plenty to save your music onto more than one device.

Once you've used all 3 downloads or the 6-month period has passed, you'll need to purchase the item again to download it — so we recommend saving your files somewhere safe as soon as you download them.

My download link expired or I've used all my downloads — can I get it again?

Download links stay active for 6 months and allow up to 3 downloads per item. If your link has expired or you've already used all 3 downloads, you'll need to purchase the item again to download it.

To avoid this, we recommend backing up your files somewhere safe as soon as you've downloaded them.

How do I know if I need a licence?

If you're only enjoying our songs at home, you don't need a licence. You need one when your church, school or organisation uses the music beyond personal listening — for example in services, classrooms, performances, or on screens.

Not sure which applies to you? Tell us how you'd like to use the music and we'll point you to the right licence.
