7/28/03:
Adaptation of that cheesy '50s song "Diana" used for educational purposes,
for one thing. . .also it's a self-parody reflecting the way I teach at Yuntech.
"You're so young and I'm so old,
Pupils, it's high time I told
How, in English, to succeed
When you're matching word to deed.
If you can learn this by heart,
Next week we'll move on to art.
Oh, please, stay with me--
I am a. . .(spoken word: TEACHER. . .)
(spoken word: Okay now, here's the alphabet, sing with me now!)
Ay, bee, see, dee, ee, eff, gee,
Aitch, eye, jaykay, el-la, Em'n Oh, pee,
Keee-yew, are, ess, tee, you-ha, and-a vee,
Duh, bull, you-ha, eks, why, and zee.
Now I know my ABCs,
Ain'tcha very. . .[doit] proud of me?
Oh! Next time, sing with me!--
I am a. . .teacher!
Ah before Ee, 'xept a-ftah see,
But it's Okay the neighbor's wayeeeee.
Vow'ls are A&E 'cos I Owe You,
Sometimes why and duh-bull-you.
Don't end with a preppazition, it's a sin!
Where's the trashcan at, to throw it out in!
M-O-U-S-E,
I am a. . .teacher.
{chorus}
If you're typing. . .during luncheon,
Don't start-cha sentence with a conjunction!
Sonnets are great. . .poetry--
Ab ab, cd cd, effga ee-eff-gee. . .Woh,
Writing paragraphs is fun,
Intro, body, con-clue-zhun.
Ya book report surely will cohere--if ya
Use a con-trol-ling i-dea.
Margin's one inch from the top;
Double space aftah your full stop!
Oh! Please, practice daily!
Oh! K. K.'s Lousy!
Oh! Please! Use the AC!
Oh! In-to-nate with me. . ."
