this version sung by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Now we're gonna do a dance
And it's bound to be a new sensation
Before very long
It will rage across the nation
Hold on to your seat
I'm warning you in advance
'Cause it's the zany, zesty, zippy, zingy, Zig Zag Dance

It goes:
Z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z
Zig Zag
It goes:
Z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z
Zig Zag
You turn and turn and you turn again
You turn and turn and you turn again

It goes:
Z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z
Zig Zag
It goes:
Z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z
Zig Zag
And that's the way
That you can also learn to do
The zany, zesty, zippy, zingy, Zig Zag Dance
Zany, Zesty, Zippy, Zingy, Zig Zag Dance
