Karaoké Conjunction Junction Schoolhouse Rock (Jack Sheldon & Terri Morel)

Hooking up words and phrases and clauses

I got three favorite cars that get most of my job done

I got and but and or they'll get you pretty far

And that's an additive like this and that

But that's sort of the opposite not this but that and then there's or O R

When you have a choice like this or that

And but and or get you pretty far

Hooking up two boxcars and making 'em run right

Milk and honey bread and butter peas and rice

Dirty but happy digging and scratching

Losing your shoe and a button or two

He's poor but honest sad but true booh hoo hoo hoo hoo

Hooking up two cars to one when you say something like this choice

Either now or later or no choice neither now nor ever

Eat this or that grow thin or fat never mind I wouldn't do that

I'm fat enough now

Hooking up phrases and clauses that balance like

Out of the frying pan and into the fire

He cut loose the sandbags but the balloon wouldn't go any higher

Let's go up to the mountains or down to the seas

You should always say thank you or at least say please

Hooking up words and phrases and clauses in complex sentences like

In the mornings when I'm usually wide awake I love to

Take a walk through the gardens and down by the lake

Where I often see a duck and a drake and I wonder as I walk by

Just what they'd say if they could speak

Although I know that's an absurd thought

Hooking up cars and making 'em function

I like tying up words and phrases and clauses

I'm gonna get you there if you're very careful

I'm going to get you there if you're very careful

I'm going to get you there if you're very careful
