Lyrics

Shapes, Shapes, it's easy, my friend.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in.

Shapes, Shapes, sing it again.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in


Would you know a triangle if you saw one

Have you ever tried to draw one?

It has three corners and three sides.

A triangle has three sides (oh yeah), a triangle has three sides.


Shapes, Shapes, it's easy, my friend.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in.

Shapes, Shapes, sing it again.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in



Would you know a square if you saw one

Have you ever tried to draw one?

It has four corners and four sides.

A square has four sides (oh yeah), a square has four sides


Shapes, Shapes, it's easy, my friend.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in.

Shapes, Shapes, sing it again.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in



Would you know a circle if you saw one

Have you ever tried to draw one?

It has no corners and no sides.

A circle curves around and round.

A circle curves around.


Shapes, Shapes, it's easy, my friend.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in.

Shapes, Shapes, sing it again.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in



You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in

Do, Do, Do, Do Do,

Do, Di Do, Do, Do

Shapes!

Alternate Lyrics

Shapes, Shapes, it's easy, my friend.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in.

You can tell a shape by the shape that it's in


Would you know a triangle if you saw one

Have you ever tried to draw one?

It has three corners and three sides.

A triangle has three sides (oh yeah), a triangle has three sides.
