Story Behind The Song
This song was inspired by my children as I noticed the unique little shaking dance that they would do when they needed to use the bathroom but were too busy doing something else to actually go.
Song Description
This short, upbeat song is very silly and and has actually been used by clown acts to accompany their skits! It's designed to accompany that little dance that children do when they need to go to the bathroom, and it gets more urgent and frantic as the song moves along.

Lyrics
THE POTTY DANCE
Words & Music by Judy Pancoast © 2000
CHORUS:
I'm doing the potty dance
Doing the potty dance
If I don't get to a bathroom soon
I'm gonna have to change my pants!
I drank a lot of milk,
I drank a lot of water,
I didn't go before
But now I really gotta!
REPEAT CHORUS
Teacher don't be mad,
I couldn't pay attention
I gotta go real bad,
It's accident prevention, that's why
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
