"You put the wiggle here, you put the jiggle out, you put the wiggle and it gets shaken all about! You do the Jiggle Pokey and it turns you all around...that's what it's all about! clap, clap"
I've no idea what's going on, but a friend of mine had one of those gizmos in college (c. 1982). As I recall it made a lot of noise and made her hard to understand when she tried to talk while using it.
A group of ladies doing their belly exercises on a machine that was common in it's time for "reducing body fat" by vibration. Didn't do much though, but was a big fad for a while.
