Singing is a part of ev'ry creature,
ev'rybody likes to hum a tune
let me be your little singing teacher
I've prepared your lesson

Strike a key
and begin with do
do re mi and the rest you know
one two three come along
let's go climbing up the scales.
Oh what fun going up and when
that's all done you go down and then
ev'ryone should begin again
climbing up the scales.
A tenor or a soprano
can try it on a piano
strike a key and begin to do
do re mi and the rest you know
one two three come along let's go
climbing up the scales.

In this very ordinairy chorus
there's an old effect that never fails
so we'll ask you to do something for us.
While we sing the chorus
you go up the scales.
