The Playground - A Land Of Legalities
The song circle circle, dot dot is also a playground song that supposedly serves to immunize a child from the affliction of cooties. The words are as follows:
- Circle, circle.
- Dot, dot.
- Now you got your cootie shot.
The words circle and dot are accompanied by the corresponding shape being traced (or, in some cases, drawn with a pen or marker) on the recipient's hand or arm. If the cootie shot was self-administered, "you" and "your" may be substituted with "I" and "my". In some areas a self-administered shot is not considered effective (the "shot" is considered to have been already infected with cooties).
There are also several variations [including]:
Circle, circle. Square, square. Now I have it everywhere. ("it" being the shot, thus = Now I'm protected everywhere...this includes all posessions and up to a 209.348 cubic foot radius around the innoculated person) (Or "Now it will stay there." Again, "it" implies the cootie shot.)
