VARIATION
On counts 41-48, add 8 knock knees. That is, on the & before each count, point both knees outward. On each of the 8 counts themselves, point both knees inward. It takes practice, but looks great.

THE BIG FINISH
If you start on count 9 of the song, you will be facing the original wall as the song ends. Dance the wall the same as usual, but finish on count 15 of the dance by stomping your right foot to the right with your hands out to the sides in the "Ta-Daa" stance. That is, instead of
