Ode to Sleep Deprived Parents and Terrorising Toddlers [Video]

The Sydney Symphony had a brilliant idea. They invited their Facebook fans to change the lyrics of the opening chorus of Carmina Burana to whatever they liked and the winning entry would be sang by the Sydney Philharmonia Choirs. The winner was “An ode to sleep deprived parents”. Can you identify with the lyrics?

O you Terror!

Get down from there!

Mummy’s getting cranky.

Put my phone down.

Where are your pants?

What have you done with my purse?

Don’t throw those blocks.

What is that smell?

Why do you look so happy?

What’s in your mouth?

Who ripped that book?

Why won’t you just stop moving?

He’s on the chair!

Just standing there!

Wobbling like a drunk man

Where is my mug?

What was that crash?

Who let you in the kitchen?

You’ve got a knife!

Put it down now!

Don’t wave it near your sister!

Put my phone down! Where are my apps?

Who dialled triple Zero?

Why won’t you sleep? Is it your teeth?

I need another coffee! My head is so sore.

Look at the floor!

Cleaning will take forever.

What’s wrong with you?

What did I do?

Why do you do this to me?

I hope when you have some kids too,

They drive you crazy!
