Original song, inspired by Robofillet
That there next to me (on the left-your left) is Jane Ives.
You can look at my username for my name. It's there. (:
Lyrics:
What's that little doodle it's making me rejoice
I stumble 'pon it whilst I read I know it's the right choice
The grammar choice it's a plus plus, 102 percent
Two words in one are demonstrated when apostrophes are present
Apostrophes apostrophes are awesome
Hats off to thee Apostrophes are awesome
I applaud the use of your contractions
But I hope you watch your actions
Make that squiggle where it's gotta be
I love apostrophes

There made to use it's a grammar binge
So use them up and I won't cringe
A supplement for missing letters
If you think that's great, well it gets better
Possession can be signified
That floating comma by whom I abide
I know it's his or hers or mine
With that happy little sign
Apostrophes apostrophes are awesome
Hats off to thee Apostrophes are awesome
I applaud the use of your contractions
But I hope you watch your actions
Make that squiggle where it's gotta be
I love apostrophes

You're (two words bound by an apostrophe) learning your (possession)
apostrophes
Homophones, their (ownership) best friend, they're ( they and are's offspring)
Hand in hand with a little thing

  • Showed this to a class of Chinese students in HK who were studying English. They were amused, and so was I. Great times

  • I like the energy the two of you put into this dynamic song. Also I was really surprised you stayed/got back in tune again at the robo-Entertainer part. Hats off to thee and yon Jane next to thee!

  • Alright... So.. At first, I hated it... But then I loved it. Then I hated it again... Then I loved it. I don't know why, but.. I do.. You guys are really talented. Awesome.

  • i love you two so much <3 -Adam Leeeeeeeee

  • Love the curtain intro.

  • omg i loveeee this video!!!!! you guys are awesome!!!! this should have like 876238762387632 views!!!! wow this just made my day xamillion

  • I love this video for so many reasons, including the fact that you are in a bathtub, plus the robotness, plus the weird dancing Jane does, and the guitar solo, and all the lyrics, and pretty much everything... and the fact that it's about apostrophes, AND I think you recite the names of some pastas at the end.

    All in all, best thing EVER.

  • I too like the apostrophe; I like it how so many people don't know how to use properly even such an elementary mark of punctuation as the apostrophe.

    However, I admit that for the most common misused punctuation marks I consider the ellipsis and exclamation mark.

  • I just want to let you know that whenever I get depressed I watch this video and get cheered up. Thanks for making me very happy.
