Bones (Inside Of You)

Feel your fingers, feel your toes

Grab your elbow, pinch your nose

Touch your ankle, tap your knees

Give your chin a little squeeze

You'll feel something hard inside

And it can not be denied

What you feel seems hard as stone

And it's something called the bone

Oh there are bones, bones, bones, bones

Bones inside of you

Bones, bones, bones, bones

More than just a few

So many you can count them

Amazing but it's true

There are bones, bones, bones, bones

Bones inside of you

There are bones inside your hand

In your feet to help you stand

In your elbow and your heel

Lots of lovely bones to feel

Though your bones are hard to see

Still you have them just like me

They are not outside but in

Yes they're underneath your skin

Yes there are bones, bones, bones, bones

Bones inside of you

Bones, bones, bones, bones

More than just a few

So many you can count them

Amazing but it's true

There are bones, bones, bones, bones

Bones inside of you

(spoken)

Now, when you put all those bones together, you may come up with something we call a skeleton. Remember that word, it's one of my favourites. And now, boys and girls, I will tell you what happens if you didn't have any bones ...

(sung)

If you had no bones at all

Then you couldn't run or crawl

And you couldn't stand up straight

Or eat dinner off your plate

Without bones we'd all fall down

Just like puddles on the ground

Just like melted ice-cream cones

If we didn't have our bones

Yes, there are bones, bones, bones, bones

Bones inside of you

Bones, bones, bones, bones

More than just a few

So many you can count them

Amazing but it's true

There are bones, bones, bones, bones

Bones inside of you

(spoken)

And now the most fun of all, I will count all the bones I can think of. The toe bone, that's one, the heel bone is two, the ankle bone is three, shin bone, four, knee bone, five, hip bone, six, rib bones that's seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven .... I love counting bones, ah, ah, ah, ah!
