 The first part (Uno, dos, siete) is done by both people linking their pinkies, but crossed.  So, one person's left pinkie is with the other person's right, and so on.  Each word, you cross the pinkies over and under.  The next part (I said an east, a west) is done ""individually"".  When ""east"" and ""west"" and said, each person puts their right hand on their left shoulder and their left hand on their right shoulder, respectively.  The rest of the handclap is done by a fast tempo.  When time comes for ""quick, quick, quick"", the clapping is quick so each word gets a clap, do it with both hands.

 :Sugar, sugar cocoa puff! Sugar, sugar pow wow!"" 

 ===My Family=== 

 My mommy is a baker, yummy yummy, fat tummy 
 My daddy is a dentist, gummy gummy, gummy gummy 
 My sister is a show-off, na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na 
 My brother is a cowboy, 
 BANG BANG, Fifty bullets in your head, turn around, touch the ground, 
 YOU'RE DEAD! 

 ~or~ 

 My mommy is a baker, yummy yummy, fat tummy 
 My daddy is a dentist, gummy gummy, gummy gummy 
 My sister is a show-off, (blow kisses four times)
