Explanation
In the first and third line, you need two black keys, the D♯ and the B♭. The two groups of notes seem to turn around: white-black becomes black-white. Once you get the trick, it's actually not that bad.
The third and fourth lines may look easy but are much harder to play. After the first five keys, you have to make your hand very ‘narrow’ and immediately after that you must open your hand to the new position in order to play the A-key. It may take some extra practice until the transition is truly smooth.
This song is even more fun when you play it a few times in a row. First very slow and low on the keyboard, and then with every repetition a bit higher and faster. And faster!!
