Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Old Man with a Beard
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Old Man with a Lump
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Long-nosed Goblin
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Guy with Glasses
Tap Tap Tap Tap Put your hands up
Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Put your hands on your knee

Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Old man with a Beard (getting longer)
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Old Man with a Lump (falling off)
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Long-nosed Goblin (breaking with a snap)
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Guy with Glasses (falling down)
Tap Tap Tap Tap Put your hands up
Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Put your hands on your knee

Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Old Man with a Beard
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Old Man with a Lump
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Long-nosed Goblin
Tap Tap Tap Tap Mr. Guy with Glasses
Tap Tap Tap Tap Put your hands up
Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Put your hands on your head
Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Put your hands on your belly button
Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Put your hands on your butt
Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Put your hands on your knee
