Queen Murder

Whoever taught my kids the "We will rock you" chorus, I sending you the sternest 'I am NOT amused' face that I can do. This week the kids have been stomping and clapping away attempting to replicate the famous Queen song. 

At first, I thought it was cool when they were trying to do it right, but was unable to get the beat or the words in sync with their hands and feet. As the days progressed, they began to change the song. Every part of it was altered and each child had made their own version.

Usually I would condone taking something and making it your own, but these kids did not make improvements. Some would frantically stomp and clap as fast as possible yelling " ROCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKK!!!" while others would exchange the words for ones that were more insulting. 

Then you play all the different versions at max volume in an echoy bus.

Welcome to my world.

  1. When I was a kid, it was turned into a cheer. We will, we will rock you down, fire you up, like a volcano you'll erupt. Fasten your seat belts, step on the gas, we're gonna kick you in the- EVERYBODY! We will, we will rock you!
    Repeat until bored or someone tells you to stop.

    All I can say is, don't worry. They'll get bored with it eventually. And then they'll find something else obnoxious to do! :D

  2. I remember doing it when I was younger, but unlike them, we were making it more awesome; not more degrading. These kids were adding their friends names along with the insults. After a chorus of 'We Wills,' I heard 'stab you,' 'die Brooklynn,' etc.
