Rock Around the Clock
(by J.DeKnight, M.Freeman)
One, Two, Three o’clock, Four o’clock rock,
Five, Six, Seven o’clock, Eight o’clock rock.
Nine, Ten, Eleven o’clock, Twelve o’clock rock!
We gonna rock around the clock tonight!
When the clock strikes one,
Join the hands and have some fun.
When the clock strikes one.
Refrain:
We gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We gonna rock, rock, rock, ‘till broad daylight,
We gonna rock, and gonna rock aroung the clock tonight.
When the clock strikes two, three and four,
Then the band slows down, we’ll yell for more.
Refrain:
We gonna rock around the clock tonight,
We gonna rock, rock, rock, ‘till broad daylight,
We gonna rock, and gonna rock around the clock tonight.
Listen, CD (134), and read the poem.
Why
(by Raymond Wilson)
Why should the world be usual?
It surely isn’t right!
I don’t want to confuse [kən’fju:z] you all,
BUT
Why shouldn’t day be night?
Why shouldn’t snow be hot and black?
Why shouldn’t pigs have wings?
Why shouldn’t the front be at the back?
AND
Why shouldn’t dustmen [‘dʌstmən] be kings?
Why shouldn’t marmalade taste like meat?
Why shouldn’t grass be red?
Why must we always stand on our feet?
WHEN
We can stand on our head?
Why shouldn’t starfish sing like thrushes [‘θrʌʃɪz]?
Why shouldn’t elephants fly?
Why shouldn’t pork pies grow on bushes [‘bʊʃɪz]?
AND
Why shouldn’t the sea be dry?
I won’t let the world be usual!
And if you disagree
I really confuse you all,
‘COS
Why shouldn’t you be me?
