Preposition Rap



Practise the "Preposition Rap".  Here are the lyrics below.

I woke up. Got out of bed,
Put my favorite cap on my head.
Grabbed my dog's leash in my hand,
While I tied the other end to him.
Got onto the skateboard, I hopped,
And my dog started running down the block.
My dog moves fast like a bobsled,
At least that's what my mom said.
My dog sped across the street,
I was being dragged fast, trying not to freak.
Then he ran past Mike, a bully I hate,
Mike got on his bike, and he started to chase.
Instead of stopping, my dog kept going,
He ran through a park, and he wasn't slowing.
Mike was chasing after us,
I tried to leave him in the dust, but I guess I needed a...

Prep-prep-prep-prep-preposition,

We kept skating, and son, you'd be amazed,
That I saw more than one prepositional phrase:
I went underneath a bridge; it was over water.
It helped us lose Mike so we went a bit farther.
We kept going and didn't want to stop,
Until the moment that we got to the ice cream shop.
Two scoops on top of the cone,
Sprinkles all over it, holmes!
After that we headed home,
Towards the spot where I rest my dome.
But during the ride, my dog got loose,
He ran up to a guy and started sniffing the dude.
I grabbed his leash awfully tight,
I saw my dog was standing underneath Mike.
Fast forward ten year later,
Mike and I own a pet shop in Decatur.

Prep-prep-prep-prep-preposition,
It tells you about a thing and its position.
When it went down, so now listen,

If you're riding through the city then you're not missing a... (x2)
