Herman the Worm

Song Lyrics & Words

I was sittin' on my fencepost (slap knees)
playin' with my yo-yo, do-whap, do-whap
and along came Herman the Worm
and he was this big (hold fingers up to show about an inch)
and I said "Herman, what happened?"
and he said "I swallowed a bug"

Start from the first verse again...

Herman continues to get bigger and bigger as he eats larger animals each time.

The end:
I was sittin' on my fencepost
chewing my bubblegum
when along came Herman the Worm
and he was this big (goes back to being small again)
and I said "Herman, what happened?"
and he said "I burped."

Alternative Lyrics & Words

Sitting on a fence post chewing my bubble gum (make a chomping sound)
Swinging my yo yo (make a woo woo sound)

Spoken:
And along comes herman the worm
He was THIS BIG (make a space between your hands to show how big he is)
I said Herman what happen
He said i ate my brother

Sitting on a fence post chewing my bubble gum (make a chomping sound)
Swinging my yo yo (make a woo woo sound)

Spoken:
And along comes herman the worm
He was THIS BIG (make a bigger space between your hands like the first one to show how big he is)
I said Herman what happen
He said i ate my sister

Sitting on a fence post chewing my bubble gum (make a chomping sound)
Swinging my yo yo (make a woo woo sound)

Spoken:
And along comes herman the worm
He was THIS BIG (make a space between your hands bigger than the one b4 to show how big he is)
I said Herman what happen
He said i ate my mom

Sitting on a fence post chewing my bubble gum (make a chomping sound)
Swinging my yo yo (make a woo woo sound)

Spoken:
And along comes herman the worm
He was THIS BIG (make a space between your hands bigger than the one b4 to show how big he is)
I said Herman what happen
He said i ate my dad

Sitting on a fence post chewing my bubble gum (make a chomping sound)
Swinging my yo yo (make a woo woo sound)

Spoken:
And along comes herman the worm
He was THIS BIG (make a really small space beteen your hands, smaller than the first one)
I said Herman what happen
He said i BURPED!!!

I knew a different version that includes him eating: Dirt, a bird, a dog, a horse, a whale and than at the end he burped. I liked that version way better!
