Lolly Lolly Lolly Get Your Adverbs Here by Buffalo Tom Lyrics
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 1]
An adverb is a word
(That's all it is! and there's a lot of them)
That modifies a verb
(Sometimes)
It modifies an adjective, or else another adverb
And so you see that it's positively, very, very, necessary
[Chorus]
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!
Hello, folks, this is the fault of the government, it was the government's fault
Hi! Suppose you're going nut-gathering; your buddy wants to know where and when. Use an adverb and tell him!
Get your adverbs!
[Verse 2]
Use it with an adjective, it says much more
Anything described can be described some more
Anything you'd ever need is in the store
And so you choose very carefully every word you use
Use it with a verb, it tells us how you did
Where it happened, where you're going, where you've been
Use it with another adverb, that's the end
And even more
[Bridge]
How, where, or when
Condition or reason
These questions are answered
When you use an adverb
And so you see that it's positively, very, very, necessary
[Verse 3]
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, get your adverbs here
Quickly, quickly, quickly, get those adverbs here
Slowly, surely, really learn your adverbs here
You're going need 'em if you read 'em
If you write or talk or think about 'em
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly
(Come and get it!)
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly
(Besides)
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly
(They're faultless free!)
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly
Indubitably!
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
