Scarf Dancing:
Falling leaves, falling leaves
In the air, in the air
Whirling, twirling leaves
Whirling, twirling leaves
Everywhere, everywhere
Falling leaves, falling leaves
everywhere, everywhere
Whirling, twirling leaves
Whirling, twirling leaves
touch the ground, touch the ground.

I wake up my hands with a clap, clap, clap
