The Elephant

An elephant goes like this and that.
(sway body left to right)
He’s terribly big and terribly fat
(raise arms out from sides to show fatness)
He has no fingers,
(wiggle fingers)
He had no toes,
(point to toes)
But goodness gracious what a nose!
(hold arm in front of face like a trunk)
