Brick by brick
By brick by brick
My building's so high
It's scraping the sky.
(Place fists one on top of the other, going higher each time.)
Brick by brick
By brick by brick
My building will sway
When the wind blows this way.
(Sway left, then right)
Brick by brick
By brick by brick
Now I'm ready to stop
And a flag goes on top.
(Open one fist, and wave hand left and right.)
