I Wish I Were

I teach these gradually, so you may have to ask your child which verses we’ve done.

I wish I were a little bar of soap         shout: bar of soap! (repeat)
Oh I’d slippy and I’d slidy over everybody’s hidey,
I wish I were a little bar of soap         shout: bar of soap!

Continue in the same vein:
I wish I were an onion                           (shout: onion!)
Oh I’d burpy and I’d yelly, inside everybody’s belly…

I wish I were a juicy orange                  (shout: orange!)
I’d go squirty squirty squirty, over everybody’s shirty…

I wish I were a little hunk of mud      (shout: hunk of mud!)
Oh, I’d ooey and gooey, under everybody’s shoey,

I wish I were a little mosquito           (shout: mosquito!)
Oh, I’d nippy and bitey, under everybody’s nightey,

I wish I were a little bottle of pop      (shout: bottle of pop!)
Oh, I’d go down with a slurp, and up with a burp,
