Saw the gleaming sculpture and stopped right in their tracks

-
Each cube supports the next, like friends who hold your hand
Each cube supports the next, like friends who hold your hand
-
And see how shapes transform, just like the Metamorphosis cube
And see how shapes transform, just like the Metamorphosis cube
-
So build, explore, and imagine, there's nothing you can't do
So build, explore, and imagine, there's nothing you can't do
-
00:00:00in a bright and sunny town of Tumet, where children love to play
-
00:00:05Stood a wondrous sculpture, blowing in the day
-
00:00:09Metamorphosis cube, its name so grand
-
00:00:13With twisting shapes and colours, like a magic band
-
00:00:18Made by Tetsuo Yamasaki, an artist full of cheer
-
00:00:22He crafted this creation for everyone to appear
-
00:00:27Cubes of red and brown interlocked so tight
-
00:00:31They change and dance around in the morning light
-
00:00:36One fine day, young Bella, with her puppy Max
-
00:00:40Saw the gleaming sculpture and stopped right in their tracks
-
00:00:45Look at that, cried Bella, her eyes so wide with glee
-
00:00:50This puzzle made of cubes, oh what can it be? Max barked in white his tail, as they ran up close
-
00:00:59They marveled at the sight, from every little post
-
00:01:03The cubes were all connected, balance just so neat
-
00:01:08Like pieces of a puzzle, fitting tight and sweet
-
00:01:12Just then, a friendly lady, Miss Yuki was her name
-
00:01:17Can to join the children, and share the artist's fame
-
00:01:21This sculpture shows us magic, in how it's made to stand
-
00:01:27Each cube supports the next, like friends who hold your hand
-
00:01:32Miss Yuki told them stories, of buildings tall and strong
-
00:01:37Engineers and artists, working all day long
-
00:01:41They use the same idea of welding for support, to build bridges and towers, and even your school's court
-
00:01:50Bella and Max listened, their minds began to race
-
00:01:55We'll build our own creation right here in this place
-
00:01:59They gathered up some blocks, and tried to interlock
-
00:02:04Making sure each piece fit tightly like a rock
-
00:02:08Now it's your turn children, to join in on the fun
-
00:02:12Find your blocks or Legos, and start with just one
-
00:02:18Build your own creation, sturdy and so true
-
00:02:22And see how shapes transform, just like the Metamorphosis cube
-
00:02:27Here's a little question,
-
00:02:29for you to ponder now
-
00:02:31What other things can you build, and learn the why and how? Creating is an adventure, when magic meets the mind
-
00:02:41So keep on building wonders, and see what you can find
-
00:02:46With Ron and Joy we end our story full of cheer
-
00:02:50Keep dreaming and creating, young engineers so dear
-
00:02:55The world is full of wonders, waiting just for you
-
00:02:59So build, explore, and imagine, there's nothing you can't do
