Play It Loud, Mrs. K
0:00 / 2:53
60s Girl-Group Pop
An original example from a third-grade class and their parents to their teacher, Mrs. Kowalski, who goes by Mrs. K. She learned every kid's name on the first day of school. Every day after lunch she reads one chapter out loud and does all the voices, even the dragon. She keeps a jar of spare mittens by the classroom door so nobody goes out to recess with cold hands, and over winter break Biscuit, the class hamster, goes home with a different kid, with a packing list she wrote for him. At the holiday sing-along she plays the ukulele, not very well, and nobody cares.
Bright early sixties girl-group pop on a fast 156 BPM surf beat with sleigh bells and splashy drums. Warm, clear female mezzo with a shout-along chorus and gang vocals on the last chorus. Reverb-drenched lead guitar and driving bass, a half-time bridge and a short band-tag ending.
“An original example of a 60s girl-group pop Christmas song from a third-grade class to their teacher, Mrs. K.”

Lyrics
First day of school, we filed on in Twenty nervous faces at the door By the time the last bell rang You knew every name and more Every kid, you called us out Like you'd known us all along So the whole third grade and every parent Got together on this song
Play it loud, Mrs. K Strum that ukulele wrong We don't care, we'll sing all day Play it loud, Mrs. K
Right after lunch, we hit the rug One more chapter, read out loud You do the knight, you do the queen You do the dragon, deep and proud And there's a jar beside the door Full of mittens, spare and bright Nobody heads out to recess With cold hands, not on your watch tonight
Play it loud, Mrs. K Strum that ukulele wrong We don't care, we'll sing all day Play it loud, Mrs. K
Winter break, and Biscuit packs He's off with someone new this year You wrote that hamster out a list So he won't miss a thing, don't fear A different kid, a different house Biscuit's got his bags in tow Every one of us gets a turn That's just the way you run the show
Play it loud, Mrs. K Strum that ukulele wrong We don't care, we'll sing all day Play it loud, Mrs. K
You learned our names, you kept us warm You gave the dragon its roar So merry Christmas, Mrs. Kowalski From the class you're cheering for
Play it loud, Mrs. K Every wrong note, every song We're your class, we're here to stay Play it loud, Mrs. K
Nobody's cold when you're around
