♪ You're not going to respond with clapping it back.
But if I clap any other rhythm, you are going to clap it back to me.
Let's have a go.
Whenever I clap ♪ Don't clap this one back, ♪ You're not going to clap it back.

I hope you didn't, though.
I hope you're much better at this game than I am.
Let's try one more time.
