The Tongue Song | Learn & Sing

Hey kids let's talk about a friend It's in your mouth from end to end It helps you taste it helps you speak It's your tongue let's take a peek! Wiggle wiggle taste the fun With our tongue we're never done Taste the sweet the sour too The salty bitter and umami crew! On the surface little bumps you'll see Papillae are their names they're key Fungiform and filiform Foliate and circumvallate form! Intrinsic muscles shape it right Extrinsic move it day and night Tip and body dorsum too Helps us chew and helps us coo! Taste buds signal to the brain Letting us enjoy food's sweet refrain Helps us talk and helps us eat With our tongue life is sweet! So take care of your tongue it's true It works so hard just for you Brush it gently keep it clean The coolest muscle you've ever seen! Wiggle wiggle taste the fun With our tongue we're never done Taste the sweet the sour too The salty bitter and umami crew! With our tongue we sing this song Happy healthy all day long!
