Lyrics
Hands on my head what is that here?
That is my head thinker my mamma dear
Head-thinker, head-thinker
CHORUS
Nicky nacky nocky noo
That's what they teach me at my pirate school
Hands on my chin what is that here?
That is my chin wagger my mamma dear
Chin-wagger head-thinker
CHORUS
Hands on my waist what is that here?
That is my waist bender my mamma dear
Waist-bender, chin-wagger, head-thinker
CHORUS
Hands on my knees what is that here?
That is my knee lifter my mamma dear
Knee-lifter, waist-bender, chin-wagger, head-thinker
CHORUS
Hands on my toes what is that here?
That is my toe tapper my mamma dear
Toe-tapper, knee-lifter, waist-bender, chin-wagger, head-thinker
CHORUS
