Sing a Song

Slowly, Quickly

Slowly, slowly, very slowly
creeps the garden snail
Slowly, slowly, very slowly
up the garden rail.
(with two fingers, slowly creep up one leg)

Quickly, quickly, very quickly,
runs the little mouse
Quickly, quickly, very quickly
to his little house.
(quickly run fingers around the knees)

Slowly, slowly, very slowly
Creeps the garden turtle
Slowly, slowly, very slowly
Through the garden myrtle.
(slowly creep up other leg with other two fingers.)

Quickly, quickly, very quickly
Quickly runs the little rabbit
Quickly, quickly, very quickly
That’s his everyday habit.
(quickly run fingers around the knees)
