Hello students,
Mr. Post told me that I should supervise the students, whose parents are essential service workers, at school during the month of June, so I will not be able to continue with the music class.
Mr. Yang
“Do Your Ears Hang Low” is not an easy song to learn. Its tempo is rather fast and there is not much repetition in the lyrics. It is like a tongue twister. However, a lot of lines end with rhymes. Identify the rhyming words in each verse. Sing the song silently in your head and sing aloud only on the rhyming words. If you have another family member who can sing the song, both of you could start singing the song together quietly in your head and sing aloud only on the rhyming words. See if you could sing those rhyming words together at the same time. Here are the lyrics:
Do Your Ears Hang Low
- Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you throw them o’er your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
-
Do your ears stick out?
Can you waggle them about?
Can you flap them up and down
As you fly around the town?
Can you shut them up for sure
When you hear an awful bore?
Do your ears stick out?
- Do your ears flip-flop?
Can you use them as a mop?
Are they stringy at the bottom?
Are they curly at the top?
Can you use them for a swatter?
Can you use them for a blotter?
Do your ears flip-flop?
- Do your ears stand high?
Do they reach up to the sky?
Do they hang when they’re wet?
Do they stand up when they’re dry?
Can you send-off for your neighbour
With a minimum of labour?
Do your ears stand high?
Now that you had a chance to sing The Ants Go Marching last week, let’s add in some movements. Of course, you are welcome to come up with your own movement version with last week’s video. Here is one version with the movement. The lyrics are a bit different than the video from last week.
Here are the lyrics for this one:
Ants Go Marching
1: The little one stops to suck his thumb.
2: The little one stops to tie his shoe.
3: The little one stops ‘cause he skinned his knee.
4: The little one stops to close the door.
5: The little one stops to take a dive.
6: The little one stops to pick up some sticks.
7: The little one stops to dreams of heaven.
8: The little one stops to shut the gate.
9: The little one stops to pick up a dime.
10: The little one stops and does it again.
Now that you have learned Tony Chestnut last week, watch this video and follow the movement.
Notice the body parts that the lady is pointing/touching according to the sound of the lyrics.
For example,
For “To-ny,” she touches her toes and knees.
Learn and sing Tony Chestnut.
Lyrics:
Tony Chestnut knows I love you.
Tony knows. Tony knows.
Tony Chestnut knows I love you.
That’s what Tony knows.
Tony Chestnut knows I love you.
Tony knows. Tony knows.
Tony Chestnut knows I love you.
That’s what Tony knows.
Tony, Tony,
And his sister Eileen,
And Eileen loves Neil, and Neil loves Pat,
But Pat still loves Bob.
Then there’s Russell and Skip.
This song is silly, but it’s hip.
How it ends, just one man knows.
And guess what?
It’s Tony Chestnut.
Learn and sing “Do your ears hang low.” Feel free to slow down the video by clicking Settings at the bottom right hand corner of the YouTube video, click Playback Speed, then click 0.75. Once you get more familiar with the lyrics, you could sing at its Normal tempo.
