Videolink: Algorithm March with Ninjas

Ippo susande maenarae
Ippo susande eraihito
Hikkurikaete pekorinko
Yoko ni aruite kyorokyoro
Chotto kokorade hiraoyogi
Chotto shangande kurihiroi
Kuuki iremasu shuu shuu
Kuuki ga haitte pyuu pyuu		 Take one step forward and reach forward
Take one step forward and you're a better person
Turn around and bow to the person
Walk sideways and look around
Wait a little here and do a wide swim
Kneel for a bit and pick up a chestnut
We'll put air in it "woosh woosh"
The air is inside "pyuu pyuu"
