about

A parody of "Karma Police" by Radiohead about using proper grammar.

lyrics

Grammar police
Arrest this nerd
She often fails
To conjugate a verb
Her sentence tense is always wrong

Grammar police
Arrest this geek
His clauses stink
His adverb use is weak
He’s dangling his participle

This is a sentence
Know the predicate
Follows the subject
And contains a verb

Grammar police
Apostrophes confound
They can’t be used
To pluralize a noun
They show possession, omission

Learn your alphabet
Don’t trust your spell check
“Their” will pass the test
When you meant “they are”

I before E
Except after C, except after C
I before E
Except after C, except after C

I before E
Except after C, except after C
I before E
Except after C, except after C
