Six Snails Lyrics

by Sesame Street

Voiceover: "Here's a little number I thought you should know.
It has snails in it so it goes kind of slow.
It's called 'Six.'"

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 snails

Six tiny snails leaving six silver trails,
Six silver trails as shiny as nails,
Six shiny nails with six pointed tips,
Six silk sails on six sailing ships.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ships.

Well the six sailing ships on six spouting whales,
All got home to dinner long before the snails.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 snails.
