Chorus:
All around the kitchen (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
All around the kitchen (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
All around the kitchen (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
All around the kitchen (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
Verses:
Well stop right there (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
Put your hands in your hair (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
Put your arms in the air (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
Spin around in a circle (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
(chorus)
Well stop right there (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
Make your arms into trees (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
Then you wave them in the breeze (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)
Walk and wobble your knees (cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo)

Stop right there
Make your arms into wings
Then you flap those things
Fly around in a circle

Stop right there
Put your hands in the sky
Wave the clouds goodbye
Yell yippie-yi-yi
