Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, you guys
Do you wanna play a game?
Oh, yeah you bet
[Verse 2]
Hey, Elmo
You put Elmo in, you pull Elmo out
You put Elmo in and you shake him all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn Elmo around
That's what it's all about
[Verse 3]
You mean you want me to go in?
Well, I don't know you, you might ruffle my feathers
[Verse 4]
You put Big Bird in, you pull Big Bird out
You put Big Bird in and you shake him all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn Big Bird around
That's what it's all about
[Verse 5]
Tully
What?
You want me to go in?
Yeah
[Verse 6]
You put Tully in, you pull Tully out
You put Tully in and you shake him all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn Tully around
That's what it's all about
[Verse 7]
Oh, boy is it my turn?
Yes, it is
I can't wait
[Verse 8]
You put Zoey in, you pull Zoey out
You put Zoey in and you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn Zoey around
That's what it's all about
[Verse 9]
Oscar
No way, I hate this
Come on
[Verse 10]
Well, if you put it that way
I suppose I could try
[Verse 11]
You throw Oscar in, you throw Oscar out
You throw Oscar in and you shake him all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn Oscar around
That's what it's all about
[Verse 12]
Everyone
[Verse 13]
You put your whole self in, you take your whole self out
You put your whole self in and you shake yourself all about
You do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about
[Verse 14]
That's what it's all about
That's what it's all about
