Caveat: 50 million pancakes

Based on how annoying this song is, I'm pretty sure it will be perfect for teaching to my younger students. Children typically like the most annoying song in a given set of choices, so that is how I judge whether it is a song they might like. I will report back if my instinct turns out to be incorrect. 

What I'm listening to right now.

Parry Gripp, "Pancake Robot."

PANCAKE ROBOT

Pancake Robot Come And Get ‘Em While They’re Hot

The pancake robot is coming to town
He’s mixing up the batter and he’s laying it down
Buttermilk, blueberry, chocolate chip
50 million pancakes he’s gonna flip

All you can eat, (yum yum)
All you can eat, (yum yum)
The pancake robot is coming to town
All you can eat, (yum yum)
All you can eat, (yum yum)
It’s a pancake explosion, come and party down

Pancake Robot Come And Get ‘Em While They’re Hot

The pancake robot is here at last
His flapjacks are flying supersonically fast
With his maple syrup cannon, and his butter pat blaster
He’s gonna feed the world, cause he’s the pancake master!

Stackity, stackity way up high
Stacking those cakes into the sky
Flippity, floppity down they go
Grab yourself a fork ‘cause it’s time to mow
Flat and round, flat and round
Griddle cake griddles hot and brown!
Everybody everybody chow down!
‘Cause the pancake robot’s in town!

All you can eat,
All you can eat,
The pancake robot is coming to town
All you can eat,
All you can eat,
It’s a pancake explosion, come and party down

All you can eat, (yum yum)
All you can eat, (yum yum)
The pancake robot is coming to town
All you can eat, (yum yum)
All you can eat, (yum yum)
It’s a pancake explosion, come and party down

Pancake Robot Come And Get ‘Em While They’re Hot

Caveat: Nonnet #34

(Poem #59 on new numbering scheme)

In my most advanced Tuesday cohort
there is a student named David.
I think he's full of anger.
When he gets a low score
his face scrunches up,
he shouts at me,
he hits desks,
he cries,
"No."
