The Princess Pat ("walk like an Egyptian" hand movements)
Light infantry (salute)
She sailed across (move hand in a wave across body)
The seven seas (hold up 7 fingers, then a C shape)
She sailed across (move hand in a wave across body)
The channel two (hold up 2 fingers)
And she took with her (cup hands around mouth like megaphone and shout)
A Rigabamboo! (do the twist down)
Chorus:
A Rigabamboo (do the twist down)
Now what is that? (hands out in confusion)
It's something made (fists on top of each other)
By the Princess Pat (Egyptian movements)
It's red and gold (circle right hands by hip)
And purple too (circle left hands by hip)
That's why it's called (cup hands around mouth and shout)
A Rigabamboo (do the twist down)
Now Captain Jack (put hands to forehead in salute)
Had a mighty fine crew (flex biceps, show strong)
He sailed across (move hand in a wave across body)
The channel two (hold up 2 fingers)
But his ship sank (hold nose and twist toward ground)
And yours will too (point to someone else)
If you don't take (cup hands around mouth and shout)
A Rigabamboo (do the twist down)
Chorus:
A Rigabamboo (do the twist down)
Now what is that? (hands out in confusion)
It's something made (fists on top of each other)
By the Princess Pat (Egyptian movements)
It's red and gold (circle right hands by hip)
And purple too (circle left hands by hip)
That's why it's called (cup hands around mouth and shout)
A Rigabamboo (do the twist down)
