Tune: If You’re Happy and You Know It
A circle’s like a wheel, it’s a circle
A circle’s like a wheel, it’s a circle
A circle’s like a wheel

A heart shows us love.... so put it up above
A triangle’s like pizza... so eat it like a cheetah
A rectangle’s like a door... so put it on the floor
A star’s like a star in the sky...So put it way up high
A diamond’s like a kite... so hold it very tight

The backhoe digs a big, big hole
Big, big hole, big, big hole

God gave me two ears
Eyes help me see
Ears help me hear

Feet are to dance to the beat
