Song Lyrics[]

English[]

Can you point your fingers and do the twist?
Can you point your fingers and do the twist?
Well, we're gonna go up and go down
Get back up and turn around 
Can you point your fingers and do the twist?

Can you stand on one foot and shake your hands?
Can you stand on one foot and shake your hands?
Well, we're gonna go up and go down
Get back up and turn around 
Can you stand on one foot and shake your hands?

Can you point your fingers and do the twist?
Can you point your fingers and do the twist?
Now, we're gonna go up and go down
Get back up and turn around 
Can you point your fingers and do the twist?

¿Pordas (Apuntar Tus Dedos Y Hacer El Twist?)[]

¿Podrás apuntar tus dedos y hacer el Twist?
¿Podrás apuntar tus dedos y hacer el Twist?
Y ahora vamos a subir y a bajar
Sube y da una vuelta más
¿Podrás apuntar tus dedos y hacer el Twist?

¿Podrás alzar un pie y las manos mover?
¿Podrás alzar un pie y las manos mover?
Y ahora vamos a subir y a bajar
Sube y da una vuelta más
¿Podrás alzar un pie y las manos mover?

¿Podrás apuntar tus dedos y hacer el Twist?
¿Podrás apuntar tus dedos y hacer el Twist?
Y ahora vamos a subir y a bajar
Sube y da una vuelta más
¿Podrás apuntar tus dedos y hacer el Twist?

你能用手指指點一下嗎
你能用手指指點一下嗎
我們要往上走
回去轉轉
你能用手指指點一下嗎
