♫ Let’s try the Hokey Pokey!
Show me one hand.
You put one hand in.
One hand out.

And you shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
You do the Hokey Pokey and turn around.
Everybody turn around.
Great! Now we’re going to try two hands.
One hand.
Two hands.
You put two hands in.
Two hands out.
Two hands in.
And you shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
You do the Hokey Pokey and clap your hands.
Everybody clap your hands.
Great! Show me one foot.
One foot.
You put one foot in.

One foot in.
And you shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
You do the Hokey Pokey and sit down.
Everybody please sit down.
Okay! Now we have one foot…
Show me two feet.
You put two feet in.
Two feet out.

And you shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
You do the Hokey Pokey and stand up.
Everybody please stand up.
Now your head!
You put your head in.
You put your head out.
You put your head in.
And you shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.

La, la, la, la, la, la!
Well done! Now, let’s shake our backside!
Are you ready?
You put your backside in.
Your backside out.

And you shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
You do the Hokey Pokey and be quiet.
Everybody please be quiet. Shh!
Be quiet. Shh!
Your whole self.
You put your whole self in.

And you shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
You do the Hokey Pokey and take a bow.
Everybody take a bow.

You did a great job! You’re ready to sing! ♫
