The Michael Rosen Rap.
You may think I'm happy, you may think I'm sad
You may think I'm crazy, you may think I'm mad
But hang onto your seats and listen right here
I'm gonna tell you something that'll burn your ear.
A-hip, hop, a hip hop hap, I'm giving you all the Michael Rosen rap.
I was born on the seventh of May
I remember very well that awful day
I was in my mother, curled uptight
But I have to say it was as dark as night.
Nothing to do didn't want to breathe
I was so happy, didn't want to leave.
Then I hear some people give a shout
"One push Mrs. Rosen and he'll be out!"
I'm telling you that was a puzzle to me
I shouted out "How'd you know I'm a he?!"
The doctor shouted, "Good lord, he can talk!"
I popped out my head, 'n said: "Now watch me walk."
I juked and jived around that room
Ba-lam-bam-boola-ba-lam-ba-diddy-boom.
A-hip, hop, a hip hop hap, I'm giving you all the Michael Rosen rap.
When I was one, I swam the English Channel
When I was two, I ate a soapy flannel
When I was three, I started getting thinner
When I was four, I ate the dog's dinner
When I was five, I was in a band playing drums
When I was six, I ate a bag of plums
When I was seven, I robbed a bank with my sister
When I was eight, I became Prime Minister
When I was nine, I closed all the schools
When I was ten, they made me... king of the fools!
So that's what I am, that's what I be
With an M with an I with a K with an E
That's what I am, that's what I'll be
Mr. Mike, Mr. Michael, Mr. Rosen, Mr. Me.
A-hip, hop, a hip hop hap, I'm giving you all the Michael Rosen rap.
