SINGERS (O.S.)
There once lived a boy
Who lived in a house
And the house sat under a tree
By the tree ran a fence
that stretched far and wide
round the gated community…

LARRY
Can I have my ball?
Can you get my ball?
I kicked it into the tree.
And my ball bounced up
And my ball dropped in
To the gated community!

SINGERS
Oh! The gated community
Is where we like to be
Everything’s so lovely
Oh! Our hearts are
Filled with glee.
And when you come to visit
You can stand outside and see
What a lovely bunch we are….    In our gated unity!

LARRY
Um…
Can I have my ball?
Can you get my ball?
I kicked it into the tree.
And my ball bounced up
And my ball dropped in
To the gated community!

SINGERS
Oh, the gated community
Is where we like to be
Our clothes are never dirty
And our lawns are always green
And when you come to visit
You can stand outside and see
What a tidy bunch we are
In our gated unity!

The gated community
We think you will agree
Is pleasantly devoid of
Unsightly stray debris
Free, free of debris

The Gated Community
Is where we’ll always be
Our smiles are wide
When we’re inside
In comfy custody
And when you come to visit
You can stand outside and see
What a smily bunch we are
In our gated unity!

LARRY (singing simultaneously with the Singers)
Can I have my ball?
Can you get my ball?
I kicked it into a tree.
And my ball bounced up,
And my ball dropped in,

SINGERS (singing simultaneously with Larry)
Oh, the gated community
Is where we like to be!
Our lives have been made perfect
By a hefty entrance fee!
And when you come to visit,
You can stand outside and see,

LARRY
to the gated commun….

SINGERS (echo)
What a lovely bunch we are…

LARRY
To the gated commun…

SINGERS (echo)
What a happy bunch we are!

SINGERS (in unison with Larry)
In our gated unity!
LARRY (in unison with Singers)
To the gated community!

LARRY
Whether, whether, whether, whether,
Whether you like it or not
Weather, weather, weather, weather,
Weather is cold, warm and hot

Two, two, two, two
Two of my favorite toys
I’m bringing to, to, to, to
A place the first one enjoys
and I like it, too!

LARRY & SINGERS
Homophones! Homophones!
Where the crews come cruising down the plane!
Homophones! Homophones!
I need my kneaded biscuits plain!

LARRY
I know a pear, pear, pear, pear
With a pair of really soft shoes
He wears them to pare, pare, pare, pare
Bushes that easily bruise.

I planted rows, rows, rows, rows
of a horribly bad smelling rose
Now no one knows, knows, knows, knows
If the scent will be leaving my nose!
But most likely no.

LARRY & SINGERS
Oh!
Homophones! Homophones!
Where the toads are towed out on the plane!
Homophones! Homophones!
I need my kneaded biscuits plain!

LARRY
Whether, whether, whether, whether,
Whether you like it or not
Weather, weather, weather, weather,
Weather is cold, warm and hot.

NARRATOR
This has been School House Polka with Larry.
Tune in next time to hear Larry sing…

LARRY
What happened to my preposition?
I took it on an expedition.
Put it by the thing I keep my fish in.
Got infected with a skin condition.

NARRATOR
… And…

LARRY
I’m a pronoun,
They’re a pronoun,
He’s a pronoun,
She’s a pronoun
Wouldn’t you like to be a pronoun too?

NARRATOR
… And…

LARRY
It was the
Biggest, bluest, cleanest, brightest
Quickest, newest, roundest, nicest
Softest, tallest, toughest, lightest
Smoothest, kindest, flatest, tightest
Most amazing adjective I’d ever seen!

NARRATOR
… And…

LARRY (O.S.)
I’m done.

NARRATOR
…Interjections? Adverbs?

LARRY (O.S.)
…ahh, no.

NARRATOR
Alrighty.
