Let's be friends with each other,
Let's be fri-ends today!
As friends we can ju-ump, go jumping, go jumping.
Let's be friends with each other,
Let's be fri-ends today!
As friends we can cla-ap, go clapping, go clapping.
Let's be friends with each other,
Let's be fri-ends today!
As friends we can ru-un, go running, go running.
Let's be friends with each other,
Let's be fri-ends today!
As friends we can spi-in, go spinning, go spinning.
Let's be friends with each other,
Let's be fri-ends today!
As friends we can si-it, go sitting, go sitting.
Let's be friends with each other,
Let's be fri-ends today!
- Bridge - Open Shut Them (fingerplay)
(open and close hands)
Open, shut them
Give a little clap (clap)
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Put them in your lap
(put hands in lap)
Creep them, creep them
Under your chin
(creep fingers up chest)
Open your mouth, but don't put them in
(do as words say)
Open, shut them
Open, shut them
Give a little clap
Open shut them
Open shut them
Put them in your lap
