Lyrics:

VERSE 1

Lets get together

Join our words as one.

Choose your words for their function.

Conjunctions gonna get it done.

Yeah if youre gonna join a word or phrase

Or clause today,

May I interject hey, hey!

I say use a conjunction.

For And Nor But Or Yet So

And more oh!

CHORUS 1

Lets bring it all together.

Lets bring it, yeah!

VERSE 2

The FANBOYS are dancin

With coordination.

"Hey, hey, whats your function?" they call.

Conjunctions join us one and all.

You take the letters of F A N B O Y S, and youll see

They form an acronym for remembering

The main conjunctions.

For And Nor But Or Yet So

Coordinating Conjunctions

All together

CHORUS 2

Lets bring it all together.

Lets bring it, yeah!

BRIDGE 1

Subordinating conjunctions

Have a bit of a different function.

They introduce a dependent clause

With an after or although or as or before or because.

And if you wanna link words used the same way

Use a correlative conjunction today.

Youll use a both and an and, or an either and an or

Or a so and an as, or a neither and a nor.

So you can travel to Noun Town

Or run with the verbs

And sub a pronoun

An adverb modifies a word.

The interjections exclaim

And an adjective describes.

Introduce a preposition

Or use slang if youre sly.

CHORUS 3

Lets bring it all together.

Lets sing it all together.

Lets bring it all together.

Lets bring it, yeah.

CODA

Lets bring us all together.

Lets bring us all together.

Lets bring us all together, now.

(Repeat 3 times)

Whoa I love

The freedom

That words give me to tell you now.
