Adverbs
L-Y
A song about adverbs
L-Y
You're wearing your squeaky shoes
And right there taking a snooze...is a tiger!
So how do you walk on by?
Silently ... silently ... silent ... L-Y
You're a secret agent man
Who's after the secret plan
How do you act so they don't know you're as spy?
Normally, normally, normal L-Y
At an eating contest you boast
That you can eat the most
How do you down your fiftieth piece of pie?
Eagerly, eagerly, eager L-Y
On the lake your boat upset
And your clothes got soaking wet
How do you stand and wait for them to dry?
D-d-d-d-d patiently, d-d-d-d-d patiently, patient L-Y
In the public library
You fall and you hurt your knee
But the sign says, "quiet please," so how can you cry?
Quietly, quietly, quiet L-Y
As you walk along the street
A porcupine you meet
How do you shake his hand when he says ‘hi’?
Carefully, carefully, careful L-Y
You enter a very dark room
And sitting there in the gloom ... is Dracula!
Now how do you say ‘goodbye’?
Immediately, immediately, immediate L-Y
Bye, Bye!
