Birthday Rap

Ben, Joel, and Jonas (they call themselves "Tripple J") have begun a tradition of writing and performing a rap for each student and staff’s birthday. They will beat box and rap, usually right after supper. It’s really funny!!

Here is the rap for Michael’s birthday which was on the first week we were here:
Guess what’s today
I’ll tell you bab-a
Is it the day you get paid?
No! It’s your birthday! OK

You’re twenty now
But you’re not yet a big-fat-lazy cow
Soon you’ll have a mustache
But then you’ll be rolling around in your Ford Mustang with lots of cash
Now you’re broke though
But now you’ve found some dough, oh. OK

Oh now we are at Capernwray
The place you don’t smoke you just pray
Everyday, especially on Sunday
Then Monday, then Tuesday, not Wednesday (that’s workday),
But Thursday, and Friday, maybe Saturday
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey! OK

Staying up late drinking lots of coke
Writing a rap song ‘cuz we’re in a boat
This is my feeling it aint work or play
I’m just trying to say Happy Birthday! OK


And here’s the rap song for Jonas (Oct. 23rd) and Sheryl (Oct. 24th):
We’re rapping this rap cuz it’s your birthday
And now we’re talking anyway. Hey!
Jonas you’re 21 now
But you’re not a big fat old purple cow.
You love to drink juice and play starcraft
And you know what you’re not that ‘badft.’
King’s corner is your game of tricks
And when you put down six, you say “pick up sticks.”
Now we’ll rap about Sheryl.
Because she’s leaving ‘tomoroel’
She makes really great food
That is really good.
With the help of Hanna
She just ate a Banana.
You are both blond,
But Sheryl you are a little dirtier blond but that’s OK
And we’re rapping for both of you today
Cuz guess what, it’s your birthday! (It’s your birthday)
