Lyrics for Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, Get Your Adverbs Here;
Hmm, hmm, hmm!
Lolly Lolly Lolly, get your adverbs here!
Lolly Lolly Lolly, got some adverbs here!
Come on down to Lolly's, get the adverbs here!
You're going to need
If you write or read
Or even think about it
Lolly Lolly Lolly, get your adverbs here!
Got a lot of Lolly, jolly adverbs here!
Anything you need
And we can make it absolutely clear!
An adverb is a word
That modifies a verb
It modifies an adjective
Or else another adverb
And so you see that it's positively, very, very, necessary.
Lolly Lolly Lolly, get your adverbs here!
Father, son and Lolly selling adverbs here!
Got a lot of adverbs and we make it clear
So come to Lolly!
Lolly Lolly Lolly, get your adverbs here!
Quickly quickly quickly, get your adverbs here!
Slowly surely really, learn your adverbs here!
You're going need them
If you read them
If you write or talk or think about it
Lolly . . .
If it's an adverb we have it at Lolly's!
Bring along your old adjectives too, like slow, soft and sure
We'll fit them out with our "l-y" attachment
And make perfectly good adverbs out of them!
Get your adverbs here!
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly!
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly!
Father, son and Lolly!
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly!
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly!
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly!
Indubitably!
