VERSE 1: MODIFYING
VERBS & ADVERBS
Huddle up
Verbs! -- Do what I say!
Here's why we practice -- Every day!
You're gonna run, you're gonna jump, defend and score.
But
I'll describe how you do it more
You're gonna run rapidly -- rapidly!
You're gonna jump high -- high in the sky!
You will defend tenaciously -- tenaciously!
And you will score triumphantly --
Ready, set, fly!
Huddle up Adverbs! Do what I say!
Here's why we practice -- Every day!
To run rapidly and jump high isn't enough.
I'm here to tell you as an adverb just how much!
You're gonna run astoundingly rapidly -- yeah!
You're gonna jump ridiculously high -- all right!
You will defend astoundingly tenaciously -- Hooa!
And score incredibly triumphantly -- go, win, fight!
