Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up so loud! Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up so loud! Turn the beat around, Love to hear the percussion. Turn it upside down, Love to hear the percussion. Love to hear it. Oh, you sure sound pretty, Your rhythm keeps movin' to the nitty gritty When you hear the tap of the wood a-tappin’ Then you'll know that rhythm carries all the action, Woah, yeah! Turn the beat around, Love to hear the percussion. Turn it upside down, Love to hear the percussion. Love to hear it. Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up so loud! Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up so loud! Turn it down, turn it down, turn it down so soft... Turn it down, turn it down, turn it down so soft... Turn the beat around!

If you can count to three (1, 2, 3) Then you can do the rhythm sticks waltz with me. Just click your sticks and feel the beat, The rhythm stick waltz is so sweet. 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, go, Keep tapping, don’t stop yet, Just feel the flow. If you can count to three (1, 2, 3) Then you can do the rhythm sticks waltz with me. Just click your sticks and feel the beat, The rhythm stick waltz is so sweet. 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, pause, And take a rest, Let’s hear the applause!

Surely you can shake it down low, And surely you can shake it up high. Surely you can shake it ‘round and ‘round, But can you make that shakin’ sound? Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch, ch-ch-ch. Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch. Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch, ch-ch-ch. Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch! Surely you can shake it real fast, And surely you can shake it real slow, Surely you can shake it on the ground, But can you make that shakin’ sound? Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch, ch-ch-ch. Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch. Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch, ch-ch-ch. Ch, ch-ch-ch, ch-ch! Surely you can shake it down low, And surely you can shake it up high. Surely you can shake it ‘round and ‘round, And you can make that shakin' sound!

Slow and steady, Slow and steady, Ring-a-ding-ding. Ring-a-ding-ding. Hear the pretty sound, Echo all around, Ring-a-ding-ding. Ring-a-ding-ding. Slow and steady, Slow and steady, La-la-la-la-la. La-la-la-la-la. Hear the pretty sound, Echo all around, La-la-la-la-la. La-la-la-la-la. Slow and steady, Slow and steady, Ting-a-ling-a-ling. Ting-a-ling-a-ling. Hear the pretty sound, Echo all around, Ting-a-ling-a-ling. Ting-a-ling-a-ling.

Repeat, repeat, repeat after me. As we play our sticks. Repeat, repeat, repeat after me. The rhythm goes like this. Rachel: Tap, tap, tap. (Your turn!) Everyone: Tap, tap, tap. Repeat, repeat, repeat after me. As we play our sticks. Repeat, repeat, repeat after me. The rhythm goes like this. {Continue, using different rhythms}

I like the way you shake your egg, in perfect harmony You shake it up and shake it down, For everyone to see. That’s the song I hear, that wonderful sound, Shake shake shake shake shake that egg, Round and round and round. If you have a blue egg, shake it in the air, Make some music, nice and loud, play without a care. That’s the song I hear, that wonderful sound, Shake shake shake shake shake that egg, Round and round and round. {Repeat, using each color}

There was an old lady who played the bell, Just like you she played the bell, She played so well. There was an old lady who played so fast, Quickly as the time flew past, Just like you she played the bell, She played so well. There was an old lady who played so slow, On and on and on, she’d go, And after that, she played so fast, Quickly as the time flew past, Just like you she played the bell, She played so well. There was an old lady who played up high, In the air, from morning to night, And after that, she played so slow, On and on and on, she’d go, And after that, she played so fast, Quickly as the time flew past, Just like you she played the bell, She played so well.

Ring, Ring 01:18
Ring, ring...that’s the sound of a tone block. Ring, ring...that’s the sound of a bell. Ring, ring...that’s the sound that ______ makes. Ring, ring...that’s the sound that ______ makes. {Repeat for all students} Ring, ring...that’s the sound of a telephone. Ring, ring...that’s the sound of a school bell. Ring, ring...that’s the sound that we all make, But now it’s time, to put our tone blocks away.
