I love all the variations! In the one I grew up with (which seems to be a combination of a few of these), the Shark Family was the same. And of course the repeating “Doo Doo Doos.
But then you:
Go Swimming….. (pretend swim)
See a Shark….. (hand over eyebrow and look around)
Swim Faster….. (pretend swim faster)
Shark Attack!….. (flail wildly)
Lose My Arm….. (flail with 1 Arm behind back)
Lose My Leg….. (flail with missing Arm AND on one leg)
Lose My Head…. (flail, one armed, one legged, head tucked down)
9-1-1….. (pretend phone call)
CPR….. (rhythmic chest thumps)
It’s too late….. (tap watch)
Went to heaven….. (prayer hands, S movement toward the sky)
Came back as aaaaaa….BABY SHARK! (Make the baby shark mouth again)
