Story Behind The Song
I knew I had a winner with this subject alone! As usual, I put humor in my kids songs and this is no different. I think you can "feel" the frustration about homework, as the verses go on and on about how deprived the child feels about having to do her homework!
Song Description
Can you remember when you were young and had your first exposure to homework? Your parents were "at you" to do your homework. Didn't matter if you were beat from a long day of school already.
And then as the homework got harder, maybe Math for example, your parents had to "sign" their name, if it wasn't done correctly. Then your parents got after you even more! Many kids dread homework and I was no different!
Come and listen and enjoy, as I present the frustration of homework in a very funny way!

Lyrics
VERSE ONE
I'VE GOT A FROWN, IT'S HOMEWORK, GET OUT OF TOWN, IT'S HOMEWORK JUST GOT THE NEWS, IT'S HOMEWORK TIME, I CAN'T DENY IT.
ROLL UP MY SLEEVES, AND GRAB A PENCIL, PUT DOWN THAT FORK,I DON'T NEED THAT UTENSIL CAUSE WHEN DINER IS THROUGH, IT'S HOMEWORK TIME!
BRIDGE
I DON'T UNDERSTAND JUST WHY I MUST DO SCHOOL WORK ALL DAY, I'D RATHER WATCH MY DVD AND GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY.
VERSE TWO
I'VE GOT SOME CLUES, IT'S HOMEWORK, I'VE GOT THE BLUES, IT'S HOMEWORK, I NEED A SNOOZE, IT'S HOMEWORK TIME, I CAN'T FORGET IT.
I MUST ACCEPT, MY OBLIGATION, THIS IS MY FATE, LIKE KID'S ACROSS THE NATION AND I'M SAD BUT IT'S TRUE, I'VE GOT THE HOMEWORK BLUES!
(INSTRUMENTAL)
(REPEAT MOST OF VERSE TWO,TO TAG)
