Ma & Pa Rentheses Theme

Hello boys and girls out there. I'm Ma--
We're going to tell you about our favorite punctuation: parentheses
Spot, can you say—"pa-renth-e-ses"?
Pa-renth-e-ses. Parentheses
That's a smart dog
Good job, Spot
You put parentheses around extra information
That's right
For instance, you could say--
You could say, "Our silly dog buried the bone (in our living room!)."
Oh, ho-ho. Oh, goodness. Or, "See Spot (our dog) sleep."
I am kinda tired. snoring
That's very funny (you little puppy comedian)
Well, Spot. I've got a great way to keep
you awake, so turn that radio up and listen!
We're Ma & Pa Rentheses
To add a thought, remember this
Parentheses group extra thoughts in sentences
Yes they do
We're a way to say by the way
Consider this a side remark
And that's the role parentheses play
Hey! We are bent 'round added statements
Not part of the main sentence
We are there to show a side comment
We can also tell you years that someone was alive
Like who?
Well President Lincoln lived from 1809 to1865
Sometimes we'll see
We'll be used around a one-two-three
On a list of anything from A to Z
Now bring it home!
We're parentheses and we punctuate
When there's something more to state
We give extra information
To help you understand the situation
We look like an egg that's been split in two
And we love you
Ha, ha, ha!
Oh, Ma
That was fun
