This song is a classic and with only one verse, it's easy to sing over and over again! Here are the lyrics for "Head and Shoulders":

Head, shoulders, knees and toes, Knees and toes. Head, shoulders, knees and toes, Knees and toes. And eyes and, ears and, mouth and nose. Head, shoulders, knees and toes, Knees and toes.

You can also mix up the lyrics by singing it in reverse like this:
