【媽媽之歌】
聽完媽媽之歌再來聽爸爸之歌
【爸爸之歌】(從2:12開始看)
如果你看了影片有反應，應該是這兩部影片某種程度上符應了你的生活情況，的確，兩性的溝通模式通常會有點差異，女性習慣將事情的每個細節都說明清楚，而男性的回答通常較為簡略(當然這並非完全或絕對)。
當然這影片不只是有趣而已，和英文學習更為相關的部分是它的歌詞有押韻：
Get up now Get up now Get up out of bed Wash your face Brush your teeth Comb your sleepyhead Here’s your clothes and your shoes Hear the words I said Get up now! Get up and make your bed Are you hot? Are you cold? Are you wearing that? Where’s your books and your lunch and your homework at? Grab your coat and gloves and your scarf and hat Don’t forget! You gotta feed the cat Eat your breakfast, the experts tell us it’s the most important meal of all Take your vitamins so you will grow up one day to be big and tall Please remember the orthodontist will be seeing you at 3 today Don’t forget your piano lesson is this afternoon so you must play Don’t shovel Chew slowly But hurry The bus is here Be careful Come back here Did you wash behind your ears? Play outside, don’t play rough, will you just play fair? Be polite, make a friend, don’t forget to share Work it out, wait your turn, never take a dare Get along! Don’t make me come down there Clean your room, fold your clothes, put your stuff away Make your bed, do it now, do we have all day? Were you born in a barn? Would you like some hay? Can you even hear a word I say? Answer the phone! Get off the phone! Don’t sit so close, turn it down, no texting at the table No more computer time tonight! Your iPod’s my iPod if you don’t listen up Where are you going and with whom and what time do you think you’re coming home? Saying thank you, please, excuse me makes you welcome everywhere you roam You’ll appreciate my wisdom someday when you’re older and you’re grown Can’t wait till you have a couple little children of your own You’ll thank me for the counsel I gave you so willingly But right now I thank you not to roll your eyes at me Close your mouth when you chew, would appreciate Take a bite maybe two of the stuff you hate Use your fork, do not burp or I’ll set you straight Eat the food I put upon your plate Get an A, get the door, don’t get smart with me Get a grip, get in here, I’ll count to three Get a job, get a life, get a PHD Get a dose of, “I don’t care who started it! You’re grounded until you’re 36 Get your story straight and tell the truth for once, for heaven’s sake And if all your friends jumped off a cliff would you jump, too? If I’ve said it once, I’ve said at least a thousand times before That you’re too old to act this way It must be your father’s DNA Look at me when I am talking Stand up straighter when you walk A place for everything and everything must be in place Stop crying or I’ll give you something real to cry about Oh! Brush your teeth, wash your face, put your PJs on Get in bed, get up here, say a prayer with mom Don’t forget, I love you And tomorrow we will do this all again because a mom’s work never ends You don’t need the reason why Because, because, because, because I said so, I said so, I said so, I said so I’m the mom, the mom, the mom, the mom, the mom!! Ta da!!!
所以可見，不管中文或是英文，押韻都可以讓文字的音樂性更加強烈，也使得歌曲能更加朗朗上口: )
