Birdfeeder Storytime Song Lyrics

Shake My Sillies Out
I gotta shake, shake, shake my sillies out,
Shake, shake, shake my sillies out,
Shake, shake, shake my sillies out,
And wiggle my waggles away!
 
 - I gotta clap, clap, clap my crazies out…
 - I gotta jump, jump, jump my jiggles out…
 - I gotta yawn, yawn, yawn my sleepies out…
 - I gotta shake, shake, shake my sillies out…
 
Tall as a Tree
I’m tall as a tree
I’m wide as a house
I’m thin as a pin
And small as a mouse
