King Virtue's Classroom - Bossy R (Anchor Chant) Lyrics

Little R so, so bossy (clap, clap)
Little R so, so bossy (clap, clap)
Changing every vowel, making new sounds
Little R so, so bossy (clap, clap)

Little R bosses A around
Doesn't even try to share a sound
The R replaces (a) with (ar)
Like cat to cart and bag to bar

Little R, Little R
Why're you so bossy
Changing every vowel and making new sounds
Little R, Little R
Why're you so bossy
Changing every vowel and making new sounds

Little R likes to share with "O"
Blending a sound wherever they go
O plus R make the sound of (or)
Like shot to short and con to corn

Little R, Little R
Why're you so bossy
Changing every vowel and making new sounds
Little R, Little R
Why're you so bossy
Changing every vowel and making new sounds

E, I, and U sound the same
When bossy R's the one to blame
These plus R make the sound of (ur)
Like hen to her and gem to germ
Like sin to sir and bid to bird
Like fun to fur and cub to curb

Little R so, so bossy (clap, clap)
Little R so, so bossy (clap, clap)
Changing every vowel, making new sounds
Little R so, so bossy (clap, clap)
