Hi there!
Welcome to the Miss Nina Weekly video.
I'm Miss Nina from MyMissNina.com,
where you'll find entertainment for young children and their families.
Did you see that
something is very different this week?
That's right, I got a haircut!
No pigtails right
now!
Oh my goodness!
Do you think we can still have fun even though I don't have pigtails?
I think we can.
I think we're still going to have a really good time.
I just needed
a new summertime haircut.
And I'm very excited to do this sing-along with you today, because
this song is called, I'm Being Eaten by a Boa Constrictor, by Shel Silverstein, who
wrote so many poems and songs and great things for kids.
And this one is very silly.
It's
pretty short, though.
So, it's a song about being eaten by a really big snake called a
boa and it slowly works its way up our bodies.
So anytime I say a body part, you should maybe
point to it, I think.
Okay?
And I'm going to go ahead and start [B] singing it.
And I think
you're going to like it.
So here [D#] we go.
Who's ready?
If you're ready, I want to hear you
go, sssss, like a snake.
[B] Sssss.
Oh, everybody's ready.
Okay, here we go.
I'm being eaten [F#] by a boa constrictor, boa [B] constrictor, boa constrictor.
I'm being eaten
[E] by a boa constrictor [F#] and I don't like it one [B] bit.
[F#] Oh no, [B] he's up to my toe.
[F#] Oh jeez,
[B] he's got my knee.
[F#] Oh my, [B] he's eating my thigh.
[F#] Oh fiddle, he's [B] got my middle.
Oh [A#m] heck,
[B] he's up to my neck.
[F#] Oh dread, [B] he's got my
Boop.
[C#]
That's a silly song, isn't it?
Let's do it [B] one more time.
We may as well, it was so short.
Here we go.
Now you know it, you can sing it with me and pretend you're getting eaten
by a boa constrictor too.
Here we go.
I'm being eaten by a [F#] boa constrictor, boa [B] constrictor,
boa constrictor.
I'm being eaten [E] by a boa [F#] constrictor and I don't like it [B] one bit.
[C#m] Oh
[F#] no, he's [B] got my toe.
[F#] Oh jeez, [B] he's up to my knee.
[F#] Oh my, [B] he's got my thigh.
[F#]
Oh fiddle,
[B] he's up to my middle.
[F#]
Oh heck, [B] he's got my neck.
[F#]
Oh dread, [B] he's got my
Good job.
That is so silly.
What a good one.
I saw you doing it with me the second time
[N] especially.
Thank you for playing with me as usual.
