Thread Name: Folklore: Do kids still do clapping rhymes?
Subject: RE: Folklore: Do kids still do clapping rhymes?
It goes like this:

Apple on a stick, makes me sick,
Makes my heart beat 2-4-6

Not because you're dirty, not because you're clean,
Not because you kissed a boy behind the magazine!

Boys and girls are having fun,
Here comes the lady with the big fat bum!

She can wibble, she can wobble, she can even do the splits,
But I betcha, I betcha, she can't do this

Close your eyes and count to 10, If you mess up, then you're not my friend -
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

You didn't mess up, so you're still my friend
This is the end of Chapter 10
Amen..........Amen!

Also:

Down, down baby, down by the rollercoaster
Mama never let you go cause you're the one I wan't the mosta
Shimmy shimmy coca pop, shimmy shimmy pow! I like coffee, I like tea,  I like a colour boy and he likes me So step back white boy, you don't shine I'll get the colour boy to beat yo' behind Let get the rhythm of the hands (clap, clap) We've got the rhythm of the hands (clap, clap) Let's get the rhythm of the feet We've got the rhythm of the feet
Lets get the rhythm of the head DING-DONG We've got the rhythm of the head DING-DONG
Peace!


Also:

Friends are like sisters, friends are like bliss,
Friends are like anything that goes a little like this –

We go up, down, turn around, hug, hug, hug, hug,
Drinkin' hot choc 'till the day is done from the mug.

Friends are like sisters, friends are like bliss,
Friends are like anything that goes a little like this –

We go up, down, turn around, hug, hug, hug, hug,
Talkin' on the phone 'till the day is done.

Friends are like sisters, friends are like bliss,
Friends are like anything that goes a little like this.
(Never let each other get down...)


Also:

Lemonade (clap clap clap)
Crunchy ice (clap clap clap)
Beat it once (clap clap clap)
Beat it twice (clap clap clap)
Lemonade, crunchy ice
Beat it once
Beat it twice
Lemonade, crunchy ice
Beat it once,
beat it twice
Shush!

Also:

Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack, all dressed in black, black, black,
With silver buttons, buttons, buttons, all down her back, back, back.

She asked her mother, mother, mother, for 50 cents, cents, cents,
To watch the elephants, elephants, elephants, jump over the fence, fence, fence.

They jumped so high, high, high, they reached the sky, sky, sky,
They never came back, back, back until July, -ly, -ly!


Also:

There's a party 'round the corner, please, please come,
Bring your own cups and saucers and your own cream bun!

Who. Is. Your. Loved. One?
*whoever it is* will be there throwing peanuts in the air
Singin' la, la, lumber. Singin' Singin' la, la, lumber.

King, queen, jack, ace!




Basically, clap songs rock...
