Lyrics
(Folk song)
Annie has a boyfriend* – Pizza, pizza, Daddy-O
How do you know it? – Pizza…
‘Cause she told me…
Let’s rope it…
Let’s duck it…
Let’s swim it…
Let’s twist it…
Let’s end it…
*Option: Change lyric to “secret.”
Game
Formation: Students in a circle, one student leader in the middle (“It”) sings the “call.”
“Pizza pizza daddy o” = feet motions: feet out to side, feet together with R foot in front, feet out to side, feet together with L foot in front, both feet together
On these verses, act out the lyrics:
Let’s rope it…
Let’s duck it…
Let’s swim it…
Let’s twist it…
On “Let’s end it…” “It” closes eyes, spins around while pointing. Stop on “o!” Person who is being pointed to is the new “It.”
