2007 Parade Skit
Our skit this year was a rap song. Katherine sang the first part and Omar sang the second part.
It started all out with my old man
An old school playa doing all he can
Not much for progress, hard work was key
But he never heard of Manifest Destiny
But things got ugly real quick one day
When Pa came home early from bailing hay
He walked around the barn on the way to the can
Just to see up playing a little “Jack and Diane”
So he loaded up our wagon with a months supplies
Not even time for some quick goodbyes
It came to me as we walked across this land
Kids, take it from me– PARENTS JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND!
So I was cruizin’ down the prairie just me and my doll
When along comes an English man six feet tall
With a long knit scarf and some curly hair
He jumped into a box that wasn’t quite there
He said, “I don’t have time to explain it all,
But come with me and you will have a ball.
I’ll take you to a place that’s fun and new
Cause I’m the original Doctor Who!”
So he brought us down to the here and now
But before we knew it he was saying chow.
“I’d love to stay and watch you complete your trek,
But I’ve got to fight some nasty Daelek.”
So now we plan to run the race in it’s entirety
In our 1806 SUV.
