🎵 Song 1 Lyrics - Grammar Blues:
[Verse 1]
Hey now baby, listen close to me,
Gotta talk ‘bout grammar, gonna set your words free.
Subjects and verbs, they gotta agree,
“She runs,” not “she run,” now sing that with me!
Pronouns match their nouns, don’t get it wrong,
Each student brings his or her notebook along.
Keep your verbs in tense, don’t jump around,
Past, present, future—make that sound profound!
[Chorus]
Oh, the grammar blues, we’re singin’ tonight,
Capitals, commas, and words that are right.
Sing it slow, sing it sweet, let your writing shine,
Learn these rules, baby, one at a time.
[Verse 2]
Capitalize names, the first word in a line,
“New York City,” honey, that’s how you shine.
Use commas proper, don’t leave ‘em behind,
List your apples, oranges, grapes—keep it kind.
Watch your words, they’re tricky, don’t confuse,
“Your” or “you’re,” “its” or “it’s,” don’t lose.
Place your modifiers right, don’t make folks guess,
“She almost drove her kids”—now clean up that mess!
[Verse 3]
Apostrophes show who owns it, or make a contraction,
Not for plurals, baby, that’s a misreaction.
Complete your sentences, don’t leave ‘em undone,
“Running fast” ain’t a sentence—come on, hon!
Keep it parallel, don’t mix your styles,
“Reading, writing, jogging,” let it flow for miles.
Quotes go with periods, don’t leave them out,
He said, “Let’s go!”—that’s what it’s about.
[Chorus]
Oh, the grammar blues, we’re singin’ tonight,
Capitals, commas, and words that are right.
Sing it slow, sing it sweet, let your writing shine,
Learn these rules, baby, one at a time.
[Verse 4]
Don’t split infinitives, keep your verbs tight,
“To boldly go” can be wrong—let grammar light.
Avoid run-ons, baby, break ‘em in two,
Two thoughts, two sentences, now you’re cookin’ true.
Use active voice, it’s strong, it’s clear,
“The dog chased the cat,” not “The cat was chased here.”
Check homophones, baby, don’t get caught,
“Right” or “write,” “bare” or “bear,” use what you ought.
[Verse 5 – More Essentials]
Use semicolons right, they link thoughts that relate,
Like “I love blues; I love grammar too”—that’s great!
Colons introduce lists, or quotes, or more,
“Bring three things: pen, notebook, and a door.”
Hyphens join words, keep ‘em neat,
“Well-known singer” or “part-time beat.”
Avoid dangling participles, don’t let ‘em float,
“Flying over the hill, the trees were a boat”—that note!
[Instrumental Break – 1 min]
(Guitar wail, piano licks, let the listener absorb the rules)
[Verse 6 – Advanced Tips]
Use transitions smooth, don’t jump too fast,
“However,” “therefore,” your sentences last.
Avoid clichés, keep your writing new,
“Easy as pie,” nah, give ‘em something true.
Mind your tone, baby, formal or casual,
Match your style to your audience, it’s crucial.
Vary sentence length, make the rhythm flow,
Short and snappy, then long and slow.
[Chorus]
Oh, the grammar blues, we’re singin’ tonight,
Capitals, commas, and words that are right.
Sing it slow, sing it sweet, let your writing shine,
Learn these rules, baby, one at a time.
[Verse 7 – Memory Tricks]
Mnemonics help you, don’t forget them, friend,
“FANBOYS” for conjunctions, they never end:
For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So—
Keep that list handy, let your memory grow!
Prepositions need objects, they ain’t alone,
“In the park,” not just “in,” you’ve grown.
Conjunctions join, correlative pairs too,
“Either…or,” “neither…nor,” now you do.
[Verse 8 – Wrap-Up Rules]
Plural vs possessive, don’t get confused,
“Cats’ toys” vs “cat’s toy,” now you’re schooled.
Ellipses for pauses, dashes for flair,
“I was gonna…well…never mind, I don’t care.”
Proofread your work, baby, always review,
Mistakes are easy, but your writing shines through.
Grammar blues, honey, from start to end,
Sing these rules loud, let your words transcend!
[Chorus / Outro – Repeat Slowly]
Oh, the grammar blues, we’re singin’ tonight,
Capitals, commas, and words that are right.
Sing it slow, sing it sweet, let your writing shine,
Learn these rules, baby, one at a time.
