I have done "Rainbows Rock!" from Music K-8, Vol. 14, No. 4 with my kids and they loved it. One of my kindergarten teachers, Tammy Makofski, adapted it, and I edited it to make it "Graduation Rocks!" We're having the kids wear sunglasses and are making microphones for them. Here are the words we're using (of course most of you would have to change "chapel" to something else):

Graduation Rocks! (adapted from "Rainbows Rock!")

ABCs, colors too!
123s, reading and writing too!

We're reaching for the sky!
Lunch, recess, chapel too!
Music, art, science too!

Shout: "WE ROCK!" at the very end.
