Music from my youth has been Minion-ized!

July 31, 2017 by Wendy S

I’ve written before that I love when Sesame Street brings in celebrities and sing their songs with a bit of a twist. Animated movies, in this case, the Minions, do similar things.


Driving home from camp this weekend, I was enjoying singing along to SIRUS 90s on 9. 90s on 9 @ mapsgirl.ca

“I Swear” by Boys to Men comes on and I chuckle.

“We had so many boy bands when I was your age,” I tell the girls.

I sing the verse and when the chorus comes on, Rachel exclaims, “Hey Lauren, this is the Minon’s Underwear song!”

Minion Underwear @ mapsgirl.ca

Really?  

Yep. I know the Minions are everyone’s favourites, but my girls love them.  Lauren even went as Agnus for Halloween last year… complete with fluffy unicorn.

For your listening enjoyment, I give you the Minions!

Minion Underwear Song

 

And for more fun… the lyrics:

Ah , Laopoda. Talachi , Matol , Lina.
Ah, Labadi , Hochi, La , No chaaa. Wu pla na chii , leh ji

Fuh pa pu seh , La ma nii

Underwear! La kah reh , Li rey wee , Gih leh bya

Mah ke reh , Underwear!

La pah kreh , leh gua ri , Teh lah keh , Lah peh reh. Underwear!

Lah ceh peep, li bee the , ee leh gua. Lah gua rehh

Ley show lee leh duu , Lah keh rey dee zuu

Bleh ahh boh dee zu re kah , Zohh reh kah laa ,

UNDERWEAR ~ Lah du. Leh ah mo dee underwear.

she makes me laugh!

July 15, 2008 by Wendy S

While I’m making dinner, I have the radio on the in the kitchen and it’s usually tuned to my country music station.

The other night I’m singing along… “Don’t rock the juke box”

Munchkin pipes up… “Who’s rocking the juice box?”

I actually laughed out loud.

(blog365: 107/365)

The awesome morning radio people that I listen to on my way to work, have their own blogs on their radio station’s website.

Mookie blogged today about his adorable son, Mini Mookie, and one of his first lessons about money.

(I’ll wait while you go click the link and read his post.)

Good, you’re back…isn’t he the sweetest kid!?! Mini Mookie and Munchkin will get to go to school together, which is very neat. But back to the topic at hand…

This post made me think of one of my favorite poems by one of my favorite writers, Shel Silverstien. Hope you like it too….


Smart
My dad gave me one dollar bill
‘Cause I’m his smartest son,
And I swapped it for two shiny quarters
‘Cause two is more than one!

And then i took the quarters
And traded them to Lou
For three dimes-i guess he don’t know
that three is mroe than two!

Just them, along came old blind Bates
And just ’cause he can’t see
He gave me four nickels for my three dimes,
And four is more than three!

And i took the nickels to Hiram Coombs
Down at the seed-feed store,
and the fool gave me five pennies for them,
And five is more than four!

And then i went and showed my dad,
and he go red in the cheeks
And closed his eyes and shook his head-
Too proud of me to speak!

Today is Lea’s birthday so go give her some birthday wishes! Oh and she’s a contestant in Media Idol!

It would have been a video but she kept running around. That’s why she sounds out of breath!
