Jingle Challenge

Take your favorite (or most annoying) jingle, song or theme song and rewrite the words, so that it's about one of the aspects of grammar that we've studied. (parts of speech, simple sentences, compound sentences, phrases, clauses....)

Here is an example of one about proof reading that my son and I wrote to theme song for Sponge Bob:
Who puts a period after every sentence?
Harbor Pirates!  Harbor Pirates!
Who puts a capital at the start of every one?
Harbor Pirates!  Harbor Pirates!
So re-read your work
and get it all right!
Harbor Pirates!  Harbor Pirates!
Edit it!  Edit it!

Please post anything you come up with... a reward awaits you (something more than just an increased understanding of the thing you sing about)
