Lyrics

Standing on your tiptoes, running on the spot Exercise is good for you, Laziness is not! One, two, three, four, bouncing on your feet Where is Orinoco? Probably asleep! Up in the morning for a five mile run Down to the river for a swim: Biceps a-bulging, it's all good fun Chest out and keep your tummy in! Jumping in your gym shoes, skipping with a rope If you haven't got the energy you haven't got a hope Running in the morning, (good for the thighs) Running in the evening, (good for the eyes) Physical exertion makes you strong Keeps you alert and slim: Just keep skipping and you can't go wrong You'll be sound in mind and limb Left, right, left, right, up down, stop! Is anybody tired yet? Tomsk is not! Puffing like a steam train, running like a horse Is anyone for tennis now? Tomsk of course! Up in the morning for a five mile run Down to the river for a swim: Biceps a-bulging, it's all good fun Chest out and keep your tummy in! Poetry in motion, legs in line Pressing up and pressing down, four-four time Poetry in motion, legs in line Pressing up and pressing down, four-four time Standing on your tiptoes, running on the spot Exercise is good for you, Laziness is not!
