When I am teaching preschool, I often say goodbye after class with a high five or a pound or a hand shake. One day a three year old boy asked if he could give me a smack-a-doodle. "What's that?" "It's when I jump as high as I can and smack your hand." "OK, sounds good" I wrote this song that afternoon. |
Give a Smack-a-Doodle by Tim Seston Give a smack-a-doodle, big jump Wrap your fingers tight, fist pump After playing our music and it's time for goodbye We like to pound, shake hands or give a little high five So find yourself a partner bow to him or her Then shake like a puppy who is drying its fur Flap your arms like a bird flying up in the sky Sing the chorus with me because it's time for goodbye Chorus So find another partner who is close to you Start hopping around like you're a kangaroo Go swimming like a turtle in the deep blue sea It's time for goodbye, sing the chorus with me Chorus Find a final partner hurry up now please Then act like a monkey swinging through the trees Stomp like an elephant marching along Let's all sing the chorus of our goodbye song Chorus |
