"Waggle Dance" is a song sung by the Fireside Girls, primarily Ginger, in the episode "Bee Story" as they try to earn their Beekeeping patches by directing the bees back into their hive.
Lyrics[]
NOTE: The opening line is repeated as backup during every other line of the final verse and both choruses.
Backup singer: (Waggle dance! Waggle dance!)
Ginger: Well, I don't think I can really overstate it,
But bee communication is quite complicated.
What seems at first like a simple figure eight
Fireside Girls: Is packed with meaning when their butts gyrate!
Ginger: See, the waggle explains the angle
From the sun to the door of the hive
We shake it to and fro
To let everybody know
That the angle is 75
Gretchen: Oh, 75 degrees is the angle in relationship to the sun.
Ginger: Yeah, but it also tells the bees the distance they're gonna have to go just to get there!
Gretchen: Ooh...
Fireside Girls: It's a waggle dance, waggle dance,
Show them where they got to go!
It's a waggle dance, waggle dance,
Take it to the bee chateau!
Ginger: Let's do it!
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, stop:
Fireside Girls: Figure eight and shake it again!
Ginger: Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, stop:
Fireside Girls: Everybody shake your rear end!
Ginger: You got it!
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, stop:
Fireside Girls: Come on and swing those skirts!
Ginger: Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, stop:
Fireside Girls: Try to hit 'em at thirteen hertz!
Ginger: That's right!
Fireside Girls: It's a waggle dance, waggle dance,
Show them where they got to go!
It's a waggle dance, waggle dance,
Take it to the bee chateau!
Backup singer: Waggle dance!
