Jim Jams

Scuff your feet, snap your fingers
wink and blink your eyes
clear your throat, bob your head
shift from side to side

Pace, pace,  back and forth,
wipe and swipe your nose
sniff, sniff, scratch, scratch
rock up on your toes

Wring your hands, click your tongue
whistle through your teeth
hunch your shoulders, pop your gum
you're giving me the creeps

Perhaps you're not aware,
these are not the norm;
It's giving me the jitters
just watching you perform!
