And there's my clavicle, that's my collarbone.
And my sternum keeps my ribs at home.
Name those bones.
Name those bones.
All my vertebrae are running down my back
From my head to my pelvic bone.
My femur fits in there, a leg bone I declare
It's the longest bone that I have grown.
Name those bones.
Name those bones.

4. Patella fits in next, that's my kneecap,
And below it are two more leg bones.
My tibia in front, my fibula in back,
Keep me running at school or home.
Name those bones.
Name those bones.
Now moving down my arm, let's start with humerus
Followed by two more arm bones.
There's an ulna and a radius
My ulna makes up my elbow bone.
Name those bones.
Name those bones.
All my fingers, all my toes,
They're called phalanges, everybody knows.
And on my back you'll find, two shoulder blades in line,
We call them scapula every time.
Name those bones.
Name those bones.
