This song is available on Jack Hartmann's Alphabet Zoo.
Everybody dance like the penguins do
Wiggle – waddle and flap your wings too
Then some monkey with a camera says
“Everyone freeze, and please say cheese”
Cheese
Everybody dance like the buffalos do
Raise your shoulders up and down too
Then some monkey with a camers says
“Everyone freeze, and please say cheese”
Cheese
Everybody dance like the gorillas do
Pump up and thump your chest too
Then some monkey with a camera says
“Everyone freeze, and please say cheese”
Cheese
Chorus:
Tails are shaking right to the beat
Feet are jumpin’ 1 2 3
Arms are swingin up in the trees
Then someone says freeze, and please
say cheese
Cheese
Everybody dance like the sea turtles do
Flap your flippers and swim around too
Then some monkey with a camera says
“Everyone freeze, and please say cheese”
Cheese
Everybody dance like the rattle snakes do
Slide and slither and shake your rattlers too
Then some monkey with a camera says
“Everybody freeze, and please say cheese”
Cheese
Everybody dance like the lions do
Raise your paws and give a growl too
Then some monkey with a camera says
“Everyone freeze, and please say cheese”
Cheese
Repeat Chorus
Teaching Tips from Jack Hartmann:
This song builds social skills and brain development. Dance and have fun with this cool, silly song.
Lead children dancing and moving with lots of crossover moves with hands, arms and feet. Cross over the midline -- right arm to left side and left arm over to the right.
But make sure that when the monkey with the camera says “freeze, please say cheese” everyone stops and smiles for a picture!
