Oliver Twist, You Can't Do This

Hand Clapping Rhyme

Oliver Twist,
You can't do this,
So what's the use
Of trying?
Touch your knees,
Touch your toes,
Clap your hands
And away you go.

Oliver Twist, You Can't Do This

Hand Clapping Rhyme

Oliver Twist,
You can't do this,
So what's the use
Of trying?
Touch your knees,
Touch your toes,
Clap your hands
And away you go.
