Fun Friday: ROYALS, the Kingdom 3B Remix

My sister Kerissa works at a daycare, and besides children, she loves children’s music. Her class is referred to as 3B (the room number?) and they are having a party for which the theme is “Kingdom 3B”. Kerissa (or Miss Kerissa as her students call her) re-wrote a pop song especially for the occasion: Royals. You know the moment in one of Swoozie’s “Cheating in High School / College" videos when one teacher says to another “You’re a genius” - that was my initial thought for my sister when she introduced me to the song.

Here are the lyrics:

 

V1

We walk with bubbles and duck tails

We try our best and never fail

to share toys

And when we walk we make no noise

In the halls to gym

We get compliments

 

bridge:

And every parent’s like

Kingdom 3B going down the hallway

Doing awesome, bet they’ve had a great day

They’re so cool

Setting examples in the school

And every teacher’s like

Kingdom 3B sitting in the classroom

On the brown line

No one had to ask them

Give applause;

They’re sitting criss-cross-applesauce

 

CHORUS:

And we’ll always be royals

It just runs in our blood

Having manners just ain’t enough

We gotta take it up a notch

May we be your rulers?

Call us kingdom 3B

And baby we’ll rule

And we’ll all bow regally

 

V2:

When chewing food our mouths are closed

We don’t drop crumbs upon our clothes

or the floor

And everyone who knows us knows

We push in our chairs

We always play fair

 

bridge + CHORUS

 

bridge 2:

Oh-uh-oh, oh-uh-oh, oh oh

Saying please and thank you

is something we know how to do

Oh-uh-oh, oh-uh-oh, oh oh

We know not to interrupt

And to stop when you say enough

 

CHORUS
