Yesterday, we were asked by our teacher in enrichment class to create a rap song about the words we practiced in the speech laboratory. Me, knowing that I couldn’t rap, tried to just make a simple song using two-chords in a classical guitar, the A-D chord pattern.
And for the melody, I just made it up when I was taking a shower. So in less than a day, I have already made a new song using the tongue twisters as our lyrics.
Here’s the lyrics of the simple song we made.
Peter Piper and Betty Botta Song
Papap-parap-papap-papap-papap (4x)
Verse 1 (Peter Piper Verse):
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
Where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?
Bopbop-barap-bopbop-bopbop-bopbop (2x)
Verse 2 (Betty Botta Verse):
Betty Botta bought a bit of bitter butter
A bit of bitter butter Betty Botta bought
If Betty Botta bought a bit of bitter butter
Where’s the bit of bitter butter Betty Botta bought?
Bopbop-barap-bopbop-bopbop-bopbop (2x)
(Not really) Rap Part: Verse 1 and Verse 2
Repeat Verse 1 and Verse 2
