I'm Just a Bill (Schoolhouse Rock!)

[staaaygold]

oh how i love 8th grade memories....

[CoolFashionQueen]

I watched this in social studies today!! 5th grade

[RecipeForDisasta]

OH YES!

[MonacoBlast]

I have too many bills.

[231259239127302631]

@MonacoBlast get a fucking job



[andmaketherain]

@231259239127302631 You mean a job that involves fornication or some such?

[TheForeverlove63]

i watched this in my civics class in seventh grade

[madbro47]

The family guy version is better.

[1danaldridge]

Anybody try to call their Congressman (or woman) with a good idea for a bill lately? Good luck.

[huffers1996]

Such a happy ending... *tear, tear* :')

[plies652]

i like this viedo

[taba3000]

The Simpsons version is SO much funnier and more honest! xD

[ElMaestr0Xavier0]

4th grade memories :)

[jenrasberry]

i had to watch this in my class and peeps were singing (badly)

[jritz45]

why are me and my wife watching school house rock

[TheAcelane]

Don't know what that bill was bitching about. That was amlost EXACTLY a three minute wait until he became a law.

[SOCOMHEADQUARTERS]

Memories

[Siyestrietza]

As a child, I loved this video. As an adult, I hate how it gets you rooting for the bill to become a law when we Americans are oppressed by far too many laws already! “The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws.” – Cornelius Tacitus (55-117 A.D.)

[MrPieman74]

I hope that bill is SOPA

[geomodelrailroader]

thats how congress makes the laws

[rippsta56]

Omj this song is the best

[emocupkakelove123]

hahaha i still have this song on my dvd and i remember how my teacher mae me watch this haha

i loved this song

[gwmadrigal]

Thumbs up if watching in 2012 :D

[JamJHolmes]

It gets just a bit old when all the "bills" represent the people who run this country and not the typical citizens. We are losing our rights to these "bills" that they wrote, taking away our rights. The "patriot act" was written before 911, and became a "law" after. Just like NDAA,TSA, etc. "If you give up liberty for security you lose both." - Ben Franklin ps RP2012

[raerae2556]

How could the president sign the bill if the bill was sitting on the steps and not in the office of the president? U know it's a children's show but still?!?!?

[speedlearner]

This was one of my favorites. I like the song. I only wish I knew who played the voice of the bill.

[speedlearner]

@speedlearner Jack Sheldon was the voice of the bill and his son was the voice of the little boy.

[MisterKyurem]

think of it if family guy took the SOPA/PIPA bill and threw it in the fire. HOW THE HECK ARE THEY GONNA CENSOR TEH INTERNET NOW?! (i'm not with them btw)

[fletchertdf]

SOPA and PIPA have nothing on NDAA but no bodies talking about that..

[Featster74]

How about a Thumbs Up if you grew up watching these cartoons on Saturday mornings on ABC tv and still love em?

[earvinlewis1]

Thumbs up if Family Guy lead you here!

[Ragnark1]

He who can ponify this can ponify anything!

[rubixXxXcubeXxXsk8er]

Whoever posted this video, thanks a lot.

[rubixXxXcubeXxXsk8er]

I hate this song, and have to memorize it in social studies because mr. Woolums :)

[MametchiWarrior]

@rubixXxXcubeXxXsk8er MR. WOOLUMS MADE YOU MEMORIZE IT TOO!!?!??

[mrumbacano]

please that not be the sofa/pipa bill

[cikDANCE]

Why would anyone dislike this? It's so cute :) I watch it every day in history and I love it! My dad said he remembered it was one of the Saturday morning cartoons. There is no "right" or "wrong" decade to grow up in, so kindly shut your face. THANKS! :)

[mrumbacano]

why do i have to watch this

[MacaronMonster]

thanks for posting this! it brings back good memories

[nickiminajluvr8877]

Oh I hope and pray that I will but today I am still just a bill!

SOOO CUTE!!!!!!

[crazycookie76]

"used to"??? i still love these videos!!!

[MultiVietMinh]

the ironic part is that im watching this in school tomorrow

[MrHusseys7thgrade]

funny!

[MrMarcopolo325]

that first kid sounds like young george bush

[idomyowndaNce]

nest song everr

[Jtangel27]

From now on in my Social Studies class, we don't answer questions with a simple "yes." We answer questions like true patriots.

"OH YEESS!"

[jujitsu415911]

My name is Bill. I like that name. Law sounds too politicial.

[yasameen1998]

If you watch it in slow motion or backwords its extermly funny

[Shadowkirby14]

This is what happens when they pass SOPA, PIPA, or ACTA:

Congressman: "We signed ya', Bill! Now you're a Law!"

SOPA/PIPA/ACTA Bill: "Oh Yeah!"

Us:"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-"

[D313xRussian]

@Shadowkirby14 Just a heads up they removed the bill do to protests.

[ToddTheDayTrader]

If only writing a bill was as easy as "School buses must stop at railroad crossings"..

[EvPce]

OH YES!

[KBAFourthtime]

Here, father and son did voices together. The boy learning the process was voiced by Jack Sheldon's son. I don't actually know his name, though.

[Geogun0331]

Guess what Bill, if your name was SOPA or PIPA; then I hope you die.

[MrToddino]

@Geogun0331 You seem to be very logiacal, i dont live in the u.s anymore so please if you would be so kind as to explain what SOPA and PIPA is becuase as i said i dont live there anymore

[D313xRussian]

@MrToddino Thay removed it because of protest but it was to stop piracy but it did it the wrong way by taking sites down like youtube twitter Facebook Google etc

[shawnmeboy]

abc doesn't play these anymore on saturday mornings D:<

[saskuebluxx2]

i'm sorry lil' bill but u have to die because you are the sopa and pepa act XD

[mw3xboxgamer123]

haha this makes me craaackk up!!!

[elegadom2]

They need to make an updated version detailing backroom deals and lobbying.

[wikipediawriter]

The SOPA/PIPA bill is one bill I don't want to see become a law.

[jordanforever21]

@wikipediawriter Amen brother!

[12mrissa]

@wikipediawriter heck ya :(

[Nickmaster8811]

@wikipediawriter WELL TOO BAD IT WAS PASSED

[awesomeness1290]

@wikipediawriter and it wont

[L3GITxR3C0NZ]

@wikipediawriter sopa is awsum ur just an asshloe

[cvpcs]

"How did you become a bill?"

"Well a giant corporation gathered together a few million dollars and paid a congressman to write me, then paid some other congressmen to get me into committee!"

[erntemashine]

Why does the Family guy parody of this have more views? How can these kids laugh at jokes they don't understand?

[TheChicagoguy]

Down with SOPA.

[MadnessOfMarmots]

Haha people getting in big political debates over a kid's show.

[turtleavenger12]

1:33 peter... Peter Pan

[weezerfantimo]

I'm an amendment to beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[retephgiel]

@weezerfantimo ...If he fights back, i'll say that he's gaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

[agentaquarius11]

Back in the day Thanx to this toon I passed my test! Lol bit if u look at it closely, it's almost like an audition

[Dactuck]

I don't get it. How could anyone hate this? Maybe it was Rick Santorum and his minions, and it was a gay rights bill?

[auggie87]

We need another Vietnam, thin our their ranks a little....

[MINONELSE]

Thumbs up if u grew up watching School House Rock

[cookieyy]

They skipped the part where corporate interests and lobbyist go to DC to destroy good bill and and promote bad ones that favor them and the top 1%.

[vinity123]

if only they used schoolhouse rock in more places. this is the easiest way to learn things

*3 6 9...12 15 18........*

[vinity123]

i just saw this in social studies -_-

[alldayagain]

Our health-care is a bill, yes, just a lonly Bill



[whYLiE09]

schoolhouse rock made learning so easy..

[MsPika101]

I LOVE SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK!

[theinnerbeauty13]

@MsPika101 who r u? will u give me a hint? plz

[The2012Angrybirds]

cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheSpanishPunk]

Thumbs up if you want SOPA/PIPA to die.

[Charlie12241]

8 people are idiots.

[TheAirborn]

Am i the only one that thinks the bill is a black guy?

[iggymagoooiii1]

@TheAirborn actually it's a white guy who used to be a trumpet player on "The Merv Griffin Show"!!!

[TheAirborn]

@iggymagoooiii1 Wow, i never knew that, thanks! (no sarcasm intended)

[breialex14]

I saw this in my government class:) really helped me in government thanks

[LawlessRuppie]

family guy brought me here

[guyjohn59]

The president hand signs every bill?

[Timothykim365]

This is so good. Sorry for raping you, replay button.

[heartpony123]

i watched this song in social studies 

[Vahso]

@Xwaterwolf100X I know right? This around when I was a youngin' :) You poor kids, had a bunch of crap fed to you. They don't want to young people to revolt like they did back in 60's. I wish they would talk about the Lobbyist as well. I hope school is going well you! Cheers Darling

[CaptainNYG]

Don't worry guys it isn't SOPA, it's "School bus must stop at railroad crossing"

[mbartholomew11]

i like this song

[HarryBillyBobGeorge]

@Xwaterwolf100X What? Yo Gabba Gabba is educational.

Kids these days. <_<

[hellomoto75]

They forgot to mention that no one actually reads the bills, they just want to pass everything as soon as possible "just cause".

Meanwhile the president and Supreme Court do nothing.

[lidokiddo296]

i saw this in history class

[ThePsychodawg]

dudez its me BRAXTON BRAXTON BRAXTON SUP HAROON? U READIN THIS THIS SONG ROX!

[tharichboys2]

nice



[huntersimon87]

i would sing this song to but i stink at singing if i made it in american idol singing this song that would be sooooo cool but i wouldnt make it that far even if i made it i love this song its awesome

[animeisthabomb101]

@Xwaterwolf100X

u know u could take a government class like kya... kentucky youth assembly. we get to debate on bills that other schools make. i just got back from the trip.

[TheAsianSwagTag]

Thumbs up if your social studies teacher made your class listen to this and it got stuck in your head

[cbrown3oo]

@TheAsianSwagTag not me i was constantly thrown out of class

[sarahbella121]

@TheAsianSwagTag

I did



[55arielle55]

@TheAsianSwagTag for me it was my english teacher xD

[mhollis1989]

Bill, I hereby name you DOMA :3

[94supersonic]

I have a government project due after winter break. And this is my study tool

[LawlessRuppie]

family guy brought me here

[Lightwing7787]

They call me Bill

Yes they call me Bill

And I'm standing here on capital... oaah!

[tighttritenight]

@Xwaterwolf100X Now there are drug influenced kid's shows like "Yo Gabba Gabba". 

[insectstripperpole]

I hate it when people say "If you grew up in such and such decade you had the best childhood possible". I was born in the late 90s and I grew up with all the great Disney movies (The Lion King, Aladdin,etc), the great Nickelodeon shows (Rocko's Modern Life, Hey Arnold) along with watching videos like this in school. But I'm not going to say it was THE time to be born because what the hell do I have to compare it to?

[321beth321]

@Xwaterwolf100X I know right! This is more comprehensible! :D

[OldMusicFan83]

These cartoons were produced before "self esteem" and "participation trophies" were invented. Back in the 70s, they just wanted kids to learn how to read,write, know about American history and do some basic math.

[PaMeLeRs]

heehee i like like how he say VETO lol

[SekondThought]

Family Guy's parody topped it X)

[KrylonDrinker]

if this video is based on actual fact then i just learned something new :)

[cheezzieSK8board305]

is he drunk ??????

[tightend50]

I love Bill's Kool-Aid "Oh Yeah" at 2:57 hahaha

[007EVK]

If you grew up in the 80's...you seriously had the best childhood life there can be. I can remember this shit to this day which is why I looked it up anyway. But how cool is this....otherwise complicated process demonstrated so anyone can understand. Yeah....the 80's rocked....schoolhouse rocked I mean. Cartoons today seriously lack value. I can remember enjoying seeing all schoolhouse rock come on. No one from the 80's.....forgets this...ever!

[werty2238]

For the seven who disliked this video, YOU SUCK

[Allsoproductions]

xD i just watched the family guy version

[MrBoolyman]

224 guys named Bill like

7 guys named Cletus don't get it

[monkeygirl243]

@MrBoolyman  Cletus?

[sarahgrulz]

the cute bill couple c;

[raintalonwindclan]

Darn I thought it was the other version.

[kendralynnbaby2016]

I love how I've watched this every year in social studies since second grade. <3

[18coaster]

I remember sitting on the couch with my brother and these songs would come on

[LincolnHawksTV]

6 people are still just a bill.

[stardappledgreen]

where does ALEC fit into all of this?

[babycrimedawg]

That is called a VETO

[TheRojam12]

Oh Yes!!! Ah, my favorite line

[shadowman2192]

This shit made no sense to me in the 3rd grade and it still makes no sense now.

[JohnnyC133]

@shadowman2192 The process makes no sense? Well, that's pretty much the U.S. government in a nutshell.

[sarahlulubells]

i remember thgis from like 4th grade!

[TheShadowstalker92]

Man, I remember watching this when I was in like elementary school....*sigh* good times.

[TheArmenianAvenger]

I like how they portray the congressman in the video. When really in most states he's just a slimeball who doesn't care about anyone.

[JessePrower]

@TheArmenianAvenger Oh there are people they care about. The bankers. The rich.

[mickeydani123]

MY FAV

[SilverterrorII]

I had to watch this stupid shit in class earlier. It was lame-o.

[clevertitletxt]

@SilverterrorII You didn't have to watch it.

You could have stabbed the teacher with a ballpoint pen.

Then again, if you hate Schoolhouse Rock, you don't deserve to be on the internet.

Go back to 4chan.

[SilverterrorII]

Sorry, I don't actually hate it. I was just wondering why a High School class like mine had to watch this. Wasn't this cartoon directed towards kids?

[clevertitletxt]

@SilverterrorII It was.

I was shown this is school too, and I'm 16.

I guess teachers think it's a good tool.

For me, it's just a nostalgia inducer.

[farawayfromlife95]

LOL That bill with the gun lol 2:17

[theoneonlymrsbiber]

I Wish They Had A Song For Algebra 1 and 2.

[94supersonic]

@theoneonlymrsbiber that would be very interesting

[honeyeye01]

The government should watch America Rock.

It would REALLY help.

[triforcegal]

One of my favorite School House Rock songs. :]

[XxxSakura101]

Oh no!!

[TheLynn133]

i remember watching this in 6th grade lol.

[vincezhao911]

I just replayed it over and over to give it more views [: thumbs up if you agree.

[darinbar]

Not much has changed in 40 years. I wonder if the voiceover is black.

[bratgirl186]

Go bill

[Dactuck]

OH YES! I Love it.

[Twihard101ish]

In my History class we have a cardboard cutout of bill

[yankees12310]

[TheEpicFrenchFry]

[iloveSA98]
