Healthy Body
Lyrics and Music by John Given
You have heart and I have one too.
Your heart pumps blood –that’s what hearts do.
Use your fist to make a heart and squeeze it to the beat.
Your heart’s pumping blood from your head to your feet.
Ready?
Bah-boom, bah-boom, bah-boom, bah-boom, bah-boom, bah-boom, bah-boom.
You have lungs and I have them too.
Lungs breathe the air – that’s what they do.
Now take a deep breath and try to hold it.
Then let it out slowly and breathe easy again.
Ready-
Breathe in and out, breathe in and out, breathe in and out.
You have a stomach and I have one too.
Stomachs digest your food –that’s what they do.
Rub your stomach with your hand and say mmm, mmm good.
When there’s food in your stomach you feel like you should.
Ready now….
Mmm, mmm good, mmm, mmm good, mmm, mmm good
You have a brain and I have one too.
Brains do your thinking –that’s what they do.
Now gently take your finger, tap the side of your head.
Your brain tells your finger to do what I said.
Ready go…..
Thinking, thinking, thinking, thinking, thinking
You have a body and I have one too.
The parts work together for a healthy you.
Stand up proudly, let your body take a bow.
Listen to the song and I’ll gladly tell you how.
