All Around the Kitchen — by Little Miss Ann
LYRICS:
All around the kitchen, cock-a-doodle doodle doo (x4)
Now you stop in your spot
Throw things in the pot
Now you stir what you got
Now you eat it while it’s hot
All around the kitchen, cock-a-doodle doodle doo (x4)
Now you stop right there
Put your paws in the air
Pretend you’re a bear,
Grit your teeth and growl
All around the kitchen, cock-a-doodle doodle doo (x4)
Now you stop real still,
Flap your arms if you will
Pretend there’s a chill
Now you hop up and down
All around the kitchen, cock-a-doodle doodle doo (x4)
Now you stop where are
and you’re driving real far
Now you beep your car,
Now drive around in a circle
