Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah

Sitting in the sandbox on a summer day
Tripped on a toy and I fell on my face
I got sand in my pants I do a shaky-shaky dance
Sand in my pants, I do a shaky-shaky dance
Sand in my eyes makes me wanna cry
Oh no, I got sand in my eyes

I'm singing
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Huh-huh

It's my birthday, and the candles are lit
My sister comes in and blows them out too quick
Presents are open, and the games are no fun
Don't feel like talking to anyone
Started as my birthday
Turned into the worst day
Oh, no no no no no


I'm singing
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah

Waiting all day for my turn at bat
Started to rain and just after that
The coach said sorry kids, the game is postponed
Pack up your stuff it's time to go home
I don't want to go home
I wanna go no, no

Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah

Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Darn
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Darn
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Darn
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Darn
Sand in my pants I do shaky-shaky dance
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Sand in my pants I do shaky-shaky dance
Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Sand in my pants I do shaky-shaky dance




Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah
Sand in my pants I do shaky-shaky dance

Overall Meaning

The Wah-Wah Song by Imagination Movers describes the moments in life when things don't go as planned and you feel frustrated and sad. It starts with the singer falling in the sandbox and getting sand in his pants and eyes. He is upset and sings the chorus, "Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah" to express his frustration. The next verse talks about his birthday, where his sister blows out his candles, and the presents and games aren't any fun. He feels left out and doesn't want to talk to anyone, so he sings the chorus again. The final verse speaks of waiting all day to play baseball, and just when it's his turn, the game gets postponed due to rain. He doesn't want to go home, and he expresses his disappointment with the chorus again.


The Wah-Wah Song is a relatable song for children who experience disappointment and frustration when things do not go as planned. The repetitive chorus is catchy and allows children to sing along and express their feelings. The song's rhythm and melody are lively and cheerful, making the experience of singing along to "Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-wah" less gloomy.

Why do I love Smitty's face at 0:01?? Whenever I rewatch Imagination Movers, I sometimes feel like Smitty is the shadiest Mover for whatever reason.
