rufus xavier sarsaparilla - schoolhouse rock lyrics
now, i have a friend named rufus xavier sarsaparilla
and i could say that rufus found a kangaroo
that followed rufus home
and now that kangaroo belongs
to rufus xavier sarsaparilla
whew! i could say that, but i don’t have to
’cause i got pr-nouns
i can say, “he found a kangaroo that followed him home and now it is his”
you see, (uh) he, him, and his are pr-nouns
replacing the noun
rufus xavier sarsaparilla
a very proper noun
and it is a pr-noun, replacing the noun, kangaroo! (how common!)
now rufus has a sister named rafaella gabriela sarsaparilla
if she found a kangaroo i’d say to you:
“she found a kangaroo that followed her home, and now it is hers.”
but i can’t say that…
’cause she found an aardvark
that fell in love with her and they’re so happy
and my name’s albert andreas armadillo
(no relation to the sarsaparillas.)
because of pr-nouns, i can say:
“i wish she would find a rhinoceros for me, and we’d be happy.”
you see, a pr-noun was made to take the place of a noun
’cause saying all those nouns over and over
can really wear you down!
now i could tell you rafaella gabriela and rufus xavier sarsaparilla and albert andreas armadillo found an aardvark, a kangaroo, and a rhinoceros. and now that aardvark and that kangaroo and that rhinoceros belong respectively to rafaella gabriela sarsaparilla and rufus xavier sarsaparilla and albert andreas armadillo!
whew! because of pr-nouns i can say, in this way:
“we found them and they found us, and now they are ours and we’re so happy.” thank you pr-noun!
you see a pr-noun was made to take the place of a noun
’cause saying all those nouns over and over
can really wear you down
sometimes, when we take ’em all on the bus
people really raise a fuss
they start shouting out a lot o’ pr-nouns at us, like
“who brought that rhinoceros on this bus?” and
“what made that horrible noise?” and
“which one of them is getting off first?”
who, what, and which are special pr-nouns that can ask a question
in a sentence where you do not know the name of the noun
but i know:
i have mine, and she has hers
and he has his. do you have yours?
they love us, and we love them
what’s ours is theirs–
that’s how it is with friends
and pr-nouns, you are really friends, yeah!
’cause saying all those nouns over and over
can really wear you down
