Dem Bones by Jeffrey Hale ©2001
The cranium and mandible are bones of the skull
They sit on top of your backbone
The clavicle's the collar bone the scapula's the blade
of our shoulder. That's how we're made.
Bones of the spine vertebrae and discs,
a tail at the end sacrum and coccyx,
attached to the hip bone ,the pelvis
bones plus ribs make 206.
chorus
Here's the skeleton from head to toe.
These are the bones that you're going to know.
They hold you up, make the blood that flows.
Oh thank goodness for dem bones
Metacarpals. carpals hands and wrists.
phalanges are the fingers. Grip and make a fist.
Radius, ulna and humerous are bones of the arms.
Reach and blow a kiss .
Our thigh bone is the longest bone for sure.
Its a real long bone called the femur.
Tibia, fibula. and petella are the bones in our legs
lets all stand up.
repeat chorus
The bones in our hands are much like our feet.
Metatarsals, tarsals, and phalanges.
Calcaneous bone is in our heel
Now you know your bones. How does it feel?
