Original Air Date

This song teaches about our bodies' circulatory system.
Lyrics to Do the Circulation
There's a great new craze
That's sweeping the nation
Come on, do the Circulation!

It starts with your heart
What a great sensation
Come on, do the Circulation!

Out through your arteries, in through your veins
Your heart pumps your blood, then it does it again
So come on, everyone get it on
Everyone, the Circulation!
So come on, everybody
Exercise your body for circulation!

Circulation! Everybody form a circle now (uh-huh-huh)
Circulation! Like your blood, you just start moving around
Circulation! It's a function that's so out of sight
And if your feet fall asleep then
You're not circulating right

You got four heart parts to pump the blood (lub dub!)
Yeah, that's circulation
Left and right ventricle, left and right atrium
Yeah, they do it, they circulate
They pump blood through your lungs for oxygen
And then your arteries take it through to your body
And your veins bring the old blood back to be renewed

Circulation takes nutrition to your cells
And gets rid of carbon dioxide and waste as well
Circulation, it's a function that's so out of sight
And if your hands are cold then
You're not circulating right

Well, your blood is such a life-giving potion
Like a river it's always in motion
From your head to your toes
Doing good as it goes
It's a big, red, beautiful ocean

Now the blood's not bad, it's kind of special
Yeah, come dig it! Circulation!
With these red and white corpuscle cells
Yeah, come do it! Circulation!
Red cells carry oxygen, white cells fight the germs
So come on, come do it, yeah, come do it! Circulation!
So come on, come do it, with your heart, come do it! Circulation!

Circulation! Everybody form a circle now (uh-huh-huh)
Circulation! Like your blood, you just start moving around
Circulation! It's a function that's so out of sight
So come on move around and
You'll be circulating right!

There's a great new craze that's sweeping the nation
Come on, do the Circulation!
It starts with your heart, what a great sensation
Yeah, come do it, circulate!
Out through your arteries, in through your veins
Your heart pumps your blood then it does it again
Come on, everybody, get it on, everybody
Circulation!
So come on, everybody, get it on, everybody
Circulation!

The Circulation!
