Lyrics

There was a great big moose
There was a great big moose
He liked to drink a lot of juice
He liked to drink a lot of juice
There was a great big moose
There was a great big moose
He liked to drink a lot of juice
He liked to drink a lot of juice

Singin’ oh way oh
Singin’ oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
WAAAY oh way oh
WAAAY oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh

The moose’s name was Fred
The moose’s name was Fred
He liked to drink his juice in bed
He liked to drink his juice in bed
The moose’s name was Fred
The moose’s name was Fred
He liked to drink his juice in bed
He liked to drink his juice in bed

Singin’ oh way oh
Singin’ oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
WAAAY oh way oh
WAAAY oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh

He drank his juice with care
He drank his juice with care
But he spilled some in his hair
But he spilled some in his hair
He drank his juice with care
He drank his juice with care
But he spilled some in his hair
But he spilled some in his hair

Singin’ oh way oh
Singin’ oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
WAAAY oh way oh
WAAAY oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh
Way oh way oh way oh way oh

Now there’s a sticky moose
Now there’s a sticky moose
All covered in juice
All covered in juice
On the LOOOOOOOOOSE
On the LOOOOOOOOOSE

  1. We did it differently.
    Basicly everything up to
    He drank his juice with care
    But he spilled some in his hair
    Then the way oh way ohs

    His friends began to laugh
    So he had to take a bath
    His friends began to laugh
    So he had to take a bath
    Then the way of way ohs

    As the water came down
    Fred the moose began to drown
    As the water came down
    Fred the moose began to drown

    Sing glug glug glug glug glug
    Glug glug glug glug glug glug
    Glug glug glug glug
    Glug glug glug glug glug glug

    Now let’s all count to five
    Fred the moose is back alive
    Now let’s all count to five
    Fred the moose is back alive
    Then the way oh way oh

    Thanks for reading his and out of all these comments I find the the funniest version and the best xx ❤

  2. This is a great song to use to kill time or for improvisation. I was able to use the names of the kids or staff to find things that rhyme with them like “the moose’s name was zack and he heart attack” or “the moose’s name was greg and he ate a rotten egg”. Be creative!

  3. Nows he’s a sticky moose (repeat all lines)
    Who likes to drink a lot of juice
    Now hes a sticky moose
    Who likes to drink a lot of juice.
    Chorus
    The mooses wife was Tess.
    She helped him clean up all the mess
    The mooses wife was Tess
    She helped him clean up all the mess.
    Chorus
    This is the end of the song.
    And Im so glad you sang along.
    This is the end of the song
    And I’m so glad you sang along
    Chorus

  4. There was a great big moose (hands on head, like antlers)
    He liked to drink a lot of juice (turn sideways, tip head back and use hand to mimic pouring into mouth)
    The moose’s (hands like antlers) name was Fred (use hands to make a rectangle – name badge – on chest)
    He like to drink (same as drink above) his juice in bed (hands to side of head, like sleeping)
    He drank his juice with care (same as drink above)
    But he spilled it in his hair (turn head sideways, let hair fall in front of face and swat hair, like trying to get stuff out of it)
    Now he’s a great big moose (antlers)
    And he’s covered in grape juice (above like drink)

    Now there’s a moose (say “mmm-oooo-ooo-se”)
    All full of juice (say “j-oooooo-se”)
    On the loose (say “l -ooooooo -se”)
    In Canada! (jump up and land with feet and arms spread –our troop had a fascination with Canada ….)

  5. Next verses:

    And so his hair went stiff
    So he styled it in a quiff
    Yeah his hair went stiff
    So he styled it in a quiff

    Singin’ oh way oh
    Way oh way oh way oh way oh
    WAAAY oh way oh
    Way oh way oh way oh way oh

    Now the moose could sing
    Like a karaoke king
    Now the moose could sing
    Like a karaoke king

    (SLOW) Singin’ oh way oh
    (VERY SLOW) Way oh way oh way oh way oh
    (EVEN SLOWER) WAAAY oh way oh
    (SUPER FAST!!!)Way oh way oh way oh way oh

    NOW THERE’S A MOOSE

    ON THE LOOSE

    THERES A MOOSE ON THE LOOSE FULL OF JUUUUUIIIIIICE!!!!!

  6. I love this song!! when I went to the Lakeside (Lakedistric I think) at the campfire the 2nd night we stayed there we learnt the shark song and this song but I think it was a bit different I’m not sure I dont think. ❤ LOVE IT!!!! I don't think I knew the actions though

  7. Always a fun song! We split the last verse into 2 verses:

    He was a sticky moose (repeat)
    With a belly full of juice (repeat)
    He was a sticky moose (repeat)
    With a belly full of juice (repeat)

    Chorus

    HE’S A MOOSE! (repeat)
    FULL OF JUICE! (repeat)
    ON THE LOOSE! (repeat)
