The germs go marching one by one –
UH HUH, UH HUH
The multiplying has begun –
UH HUH, UH HUH
A microscopic cell you see
Can make you sick quite easily
A germ is what we call bacteria

Germs will spread diseases now –
UH HUH, UH HUH
You pass them in your sneezes now –
UH HUH, UH HUH
You find them on your dirty hands
In toilet bowls and garbage cans
A germ is what we call bacteria

Look out, look out for germs –
Here they come!
Look out, look out for germs –
Here they come!

Germs are trying to get in – UH HUH, UH HUH
Through your mouth, your nose
Your skin – UH HUH, UH HUH
A germ is a naughty parasite
Your antibodies have to fight
A germ is what we call bacteria

To prevent the spread of germs –
UH HUH, UH HUH
Is something we all can learn –
UH HUH, UH HUH

Cover your mouth before you sneeze, wash your
Hands, if you please
Mouth, nose skin don’t let the germs in

Good-bye good-bye to germs –
There they go!
Good-bye good-bye to germs –
There they go!

March of the Germs
