[Intro] [Upbeat piano chords] [Spoken]: "Hey, have you seen Billy? Billy went to the store because Billy wanted Billy’s favorite snack!" Ugh! That’s way too much Billy! Let’s swap it out! [Verse 1] You don’t have to say a name again and again, Just use a little word to be a name’s best friend! For a boy, use HE. For a girl, use SHE. When I’m talking about myself, I just say ME! IT is for a thing, like a ball or a toy, A pronoun is a shortcut we can all enjoy! [Chorus] It’s a Pronoun! The Great Swap! Give the proper names a tiny little stop. I, You, He, She, They, and We, Swapping out the names as easy as can be! I, You, He, She, They, and We, It’s the pronoun family! [Verse 2] If there’s a whole group, then THEY is the word, The loudest bunch of people that you ever heard! If you are in the group, then WE is the way, To talk about the fun that we're having today. YOU are the listener, YOU are the star, Pronouns tell the world exactly who we are! [Bridge] [Half-time tempo, very rhythmic] Whose is it? (It’s MINE!) Whose is it? (It’s YOURS!) Whose is it? (It’s HERS or HIS!) That’s a possessive pronoun, that’s just how it is! OURS, THEIRS, and ITS too, Now the sentence belongs to you! [Chorus] It’s a Pronoun! The Great Swap! Give the proper names a tiny little stop. I, You, He, She, They, and We, Swapping out the names as easy as can be! [Outro] [Spoken]: "He went to the store to get his snack." Ah, much better! I am finished! WE are done! Pronouns are number one! [Big Broadway finish] [End]
