Bone Song

We came to let you know
About bones from your head to toe
So come on and feel the flow
But don’t break ‘em, just take ‘em,
Put your hands on your hips and shake ‘em

Learn all your bones and know ‘em
Drink all of your milk and grow ‘em
Walk tall and be proud and show ‘em
But don’t break ‘em, just take ‘em,
Put your hands on your hips and shake ‘em

Let’s start at the skull, the place that holds your brain
If you call it cranium, it means the same

Then there’s a bone that helps you chew and gnaw
It’s the mandible – and you call it your jaw

The clavicle bone’s the same thing as the collar
Pay attention now, listen up and follow

The shoulder blade’s the scapula; the breastbone’s the sternum
Scientific names; practice them and learn ‘em

Your heart and other organs hide in this place
Remain safe inside - your ribcage

Your funny bone’s not, though it may sound so
Its name is humerus, right at your elbow

The radius and ulna are part of the arm, too
And help you move in the way that you do

They lead to the carpals—which make up your wrist
They are the reason it can bend and twist

We came to let you know
About bones from your head to toe
So come on and feel the flow
But don’t break ‘em, just take ‘em,
Put your hands on your hips and shake ‘em
