If You’ve Ever Acted Beastly… (Tune: If You’re Happy and You Know It) If you’ve ever acted beastly, frown right now. If you’ve ever acted beastly, wiggle around. If you’ve ever acted beastly, touch your nose and then your head. If you’ve ever acted beastly, frown again.
If you’ve ever acted beastly, please stand up. If you’ve ever acted beastly, turn around. If you’ve ever acted beastly, please jump up and pat your head. If you’ve ever acted beastly, now sit down
