lyrics

I have learned a lot about penguins
I know they don’t live in France
They live near the South Pole
Near the Antarctic Circle
And I can do the penguin dance!

You use your flippers as a guide
As you rock from side to side
You stretch out your wings, and puff up your chest with pride
And then you tap, tap, tap your little webbed toes
And that’s all there is to it, that’s just how it goes

Oh, I’ve learned a lot about penguins
I know that they don’t prance
They swim in the water and they eat fresh fish
And they waddle when they do their penguin dance

You use your flippers as a guide
As you rock from side to side
You stretch out your wings, and puff up your chest with pride
And then you tap, tap, tap your little webbed toes
And that’s all there is to it, that’s just how it goes

I have learned a lot about penguins
I know they’re much bigger than ants
The Emperor is tall, and the Little Blue is small
But they all can do the penguin dance.

You use your flippers as a guide
As you rock from side to side
You stretch out your wings, and puff up your chest with pride
And then you tap, tap, tap your little webbed toes
And that’s all there is to it, that’s just how it goes

You use your flippers as a guide
As you rock from side to side
You stretch out your wings, and puff up your chest with pride
And then you tap, tap, tap your little webbed toes
And that’s all there is to it, that’s just how it goes!
