Clap, c'mon and clap your hands together
Clap, clappin's easy to do
Clap, it's the pulsing of percussion
all you need are your hands, all you need is you
Snap, snap your fingers to the rhythm
Snap, keeps the hippest beat
Snap, says you're feeling cool and jazzy
makes you nod your head, makes you tap your feet
Tap, tap your toes to terra firma
Tap, tappin' toes to the ground
Tap, get your feet into the rhythm
making pretty music while you're dancing around
Cluck, cluck your tongue to the tempo
Cluck, like a clock that ticks
Cluck, it's a simple mouth movement
it's the tasty way your body keeps a rhythmic lick
Pop, pop your cheek with your finger
Pop, you can use either hand
Pop, like a cork from a bottle
a percolating sound from our human band
Slap, slap your hands against your body
Slap, hey, give me some skin
Slap, use your body like a drummer
playing on the instrument we're liv'ng in
Sounds, we can do them all together
Sounds, we can do one or two
Sounds, you were born for playing music
only instrument you need to make a sound is you
only instrument you need to make a sound is you
only instrument you need to make a sound is you!
