Hello, My Name’s Joe

(Leader calls, everyone repeats)

VERSION I:

Hello, My Name’s Joe

I’ve got a wife and 3 kids

And I work in a button factory

One day my boss came up to me and said

“Joe are you busy, are you busy, are you Joe?”

And I said No

And he said

“Joe, push this button with your Left Hand Joe”

Everyone pushes an imaginary button with their left hand and keeps doing it through the whole song. Then repeat the song but each time replace the body part in the song with a new one, whilst still pushing buttons from the other rounds.

Right Hand

Left Elbow

Left Elbow

Left Foot

Right Foot

Left Knee

Right Knee

Bottom

Head

Tongue

 

When you run out of new actions to add:

 

Hello, My Name’s Joe

I’ve got a wife and 3 kids

And I work in a button factory

One day my boss came up to me and said

“Joe are you busy, are you busy, are you Joe?”

And I said YES!!!

 

VERSION II:

Hi, my name’s Joe

I’ve got a wife and 3 kids

And I work in a button/button pushing factory

One day my boss came up to me

And said: “Joe, are you busy lad?”

And I said No

And he said

“Joe, push this button with your Left Hand“

And then the song continues in the same style as the first version but with the lyrics above.

 

VERSION III:

The same as version II, however each time, whoever is leading the song, will change the ‘I’ve got a wife and 3 kids’ each round (i.e. different number of children, wives, pets, husbands etc.).
