V5

[Intro] [Funky bass guitar riff] You’ve got the noun, you’ve got the action, Now let’s give it some satisfaction! How do you do it? When do you go? Tell me the secret so I’m in the know! [Verse 1] The cheetah runs... but how does he run? He runs Quickly underneath the sun! The turtle walks... but how is his pace? He walks Slowly in the garden space. That little -LY at the end of the word, Is the coolest suffix that you’ve ever heard! [Chorus] Add an Adverb! (How do you do it?) Add an Adverb! (There’s nothing to it!) It describes the verb, it sets the scene, It tells us exactly what you mean! Loudly, Quietly, Happily too, Adverbs tell us how you do what you do! [Verse 2] It’s not just "How," it’s "Where" and "When," I want to go Outside and play again! I’ll do my homework Now, not Later, I’m a sentence-building investigator! Here, There, Everywhere we go, Adverbs are the stars of the show! [Bridge] [Music slows down, very smooth] Be Careful with the noun (That's an adjective, see?) But move Carefully (That’s the adverb for me!) He is Quiet (Adjective!) He speaks Quietly (Adverb!) See the difference? It’s as easy as can be! [Chorus] Add an Adverb! (How do you do it?) Add an Adverb! (There’s nothing to it!) It describes the verb, it sets the scene, It tells us exactly what you mean! [Outro] Do it Daily! Do it Well! You’re an Adverb expert, can’t you tell? [Big horn blast] [End]
