(jump)
Before I dim the light
(switch out the light)
I put my shoes together
(hands together)
So they can talk at night
(hands talk)
I'm sure they would be lonesome if I tossed them here and there
(toss hands left and right)
So I put them close together
(place hands together)
For they are a friendly pair.
