La Honda State of Mind

Yea I'm up in Cuesta, then I'm down in Loma Mar,
San Gregorio, hey I'm redwood forever
so I'm teachin' fifth grade, yeah it keeps me busy
kids in constant motion, sometimes they make me dizzy
but I love my class though, 'cause they workin' so hard
make a teacher proud when I'm writin' their report card
Teachin' English, math, social studies, science
Responsibility, respect and self-reliance
teaching next to 6th grade, man they got a big class
but Ms. Kern holds it down, taking no sass
Ms. M keeps it real in the fourth grade,
she got the kids learnin' so much they got it made
and Ms. Rayer's got a 2/3 combination
layin' down a solid educational foundation
Then there's Ms. Sterling, she's got the K/1
Kids learning so much, but they still havin' fun in...

Chorus:
La Honda, redwood forest where dreams are made of
There's nothin' you can't do
here in La Honda,
These teachers are makin' you so smart
You'll have such a head start
Let's hear it La Honda, La Honda
La Honda


Respect to the giants, but I'm an A's fan
man I made the A's hat more famous than the A's can
I like to play at recess, but I ain't a kid though
when I'm playin' football I throw like Tony Romo
kids from Pescadero, hangin' on the blacktop
chillin' with their friends as they talkin' at the bus stop
sometimes speaking English, sometimes speaking Spanish
Me, you know I can hang in either Language
yo no soy mas padre porque traigo mis lentes
soy mas padre porque yo soy bilingue
es que tengo dos idiomas en mi mente
porque ser bilingue es ser mas inteligente
just ask Ms. Lindstrom, if that was unclear
she runs a tight ship and she went to school here
and so did Angie, she can do everything
she's the voice of the school when the phone rings in

Chorus:


Gotta love the staff here, man you know they kickin'
we got Julie in the garden with the chickens
you know the preschool rocks with Debbie & Carole
and the facility is tight because of Darryl
Why are our kids so smart, that's a no brainer
it's Ms. Pappalardo, Ms Lyon and Ms. Lehner
for field trips Kathy makes P,B and jelly
and helpin' out in every class, Ms. Domatelli
Claire's in daycare, Dave's teachin' P.E.
Ms. Mary Lynn's got the kids singin' so sweet
Dr. Peter and Ms. Celia in the reading club,
a shout out for volunteers, we give 'em much love
stomp your feet 'cause you feel the vibration
and props to La Honda Educational Foundation
in the summer everybody's hangin' at the pool
buy they just can't wait to come back to school in

Chorus:

Bridge:
Out here we don't need no big city
all the hills and the fields lookin' so pretty
no place in the world that could compare
wave your hands in the air
everybody say "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah"

Chorus:
