    Mr. Morton can get it. Stable employment, owns a house, has a cat, green thumb, and is the subject of the sentence. Big daddy energy.

    This is my favorite song. Things to love:
    1. Everyone who grew up with this song will surprise their teacher by knowing what a predicate is "early"
    2. The sympathetic subject of the sentence is a passive character archetype that is commonly mocked or ignored
    3. Who does say women can't propose?
    4. The song turning much more downbeat after Mr. Morton leaves and going more upbeat when Pearl shows up.
    5. The funny foreground event at 1:53

    • @KairuHakubi

    Mister Morton grew
    Mister Morton was very shy
    Mister Morton was
    Mister Morton is the subject of the
    Sentence and what the predicate says,
    He does
    The subject is a noun, that's person,
    Place or thing
    It's who or what the sentence is about
    And the predicate is the verb
    That's the action word
    That gets the subject up and out
    Mister Morton wrote Pearl a poem
    Mister Morton wrote
    Pearl replied in the afternoon
    Pearl replied by a note
    Mister Morton was very nervous
    Mister Morton was
    Mister Morton is the subject of the
    Sentence and what the predicate says,
    He does!
    The cat stretched,
    The sun beat down,
    A neighbor chased his kid.
    (Come here kid - come on!)
    Each sentence is completed when
    You know the subject did.
    Mister Morton knocked on her door
    Mister Morton knocked
    Mister Morton sat on her porch
    Yes, he just sat and rocked
    When she opened up the door he ran.
    Mister Morton climbed up his stairs
    Mister Morton climbed
    Mister Morton rhymed pretty words
    Mister Morton rhymed
    Mister Morton was lonely
    Mister Morton was
    Until Pearl showed up with a single
    Rose.
    Who says women can't propose?
    Now Mister Morton is happy
    And Pearl and the cat are too
    They're the subjects of the sentence
    And what the predicate says, they do🎼🎵🎶🎤

    Excluding the end of this, up until that it looked like Mr. Morton is at least lonely and nowadays I’m feeling sad and lonely because a girl that I really like looks like has left my life and a bunch of other things have happened over time that made me lonely. After my parents got divorced almost 10 years ago and my dad was with another lady for a while since as they had a big family I enjoyed being around and now my dad got divorced with her almost a few years ago so that’s gone, some good friends of mine that I enjoyed hanging out with have moved out of my state over a few years ago as my life has now got small and lonely. Sometimes when it’s not a fun time I get sad being lonely, but sometimes also I do enjoy being lonely having a restful peaceful time. I refer Mr. Morton’s to nothing happy, but maybe nothing sad either as it looked like he was living an easy quiet life which I guess is the way for me to live right now although I hope for something better in the future!

    spend an hour on the internet, and you'll quickly discover that WAY too many people skipped Schoolhouse Rock as kids.
    humanity could benefit from basic elementary reeducation: math, grammar, spelling, finance, and manners.
    everything you need in life, you learn in kindergarten. don't touch people's stuff. don't lie. don't punch someone. don't let your emotions control your actions. share. don't believe out of three apples and one orange, the apples are better just because they're all the same--oranges are just as good. wear a hat and gloves in cold weather. eat sweet stuff very sparingly. one is enough for anybody. no cutting in line. respect your elders, even though you don't always agree with them. reading is better than TV.
    AND...remember to laugh, smile, and get outside for some sunshine, because a good day's work earns you some rest, fun, relaxation!! :)
