Why didn’t you post this in Popular Media? It obviously has nothing to do with Liturgy and Sacraments.

I think the OP is referring to the children’s song “Hokey Pokey”. We had a thread regarding it earlier this year:
forums.catholic-questions.org/showthread.php?t=224488&highlight=pokey
The OP’s suggestion is one myth about it, that Hokey Pokey is a corruption of Hocus Pocus, which itself is allegedly a perversion of a phrase from the Latin mass: “Hoc est corpus meum” (This is my body).
The myth is highly speculative and not very credible in my opinion.
