Snow_MaryMorrisMary Morris is a teacher who is growing more famous by the day, and with good reason. Combine lyric writing skills to the tune of Adele’s popular song of the day (Hello), with a good set of pipes and you have the makings for a good video. Relate this to teachers in the middle of a winter that has been starved for snow, and we have an anthem growing in front of us. Faith in the Flakes has lots of company.

Mandy sang this song to her fellow faculty and uploaded it on January 5th after an inservice day. In less than a week, over 200,000 people have viewed it. I was sent her video by more than 20 people, many I am sure are fellow teachers.  I love it!  I believe as our chances for real snow grows over the next few weeks, this son and video will become a phenomenon.

“There is no sound that’s so sweet… As hearing salt trucks on the street”

Watch this video and below I transcribed the lyrics. It’s really well done and funny.  You may want to share this with the teachers in your life and sing it along with the pre snowfall rituals.

*Could someone please contact me let me know where she teaches? I would like to send her a Faith in the Flakes shirt ASAP.

Lyrics:

Snow, It’s me

I know we just got out for Christmas

But I’m ready for some more time

To myself, you see

So if you could come or day or two

Or maybe 23

 

Oh Snow, Can you hear me

I’m inside my classroom

Dreaming how it used to be

When we were younger, and free

I’ve forgotten how the snow felt as it crunched beneath my feet

 

We need a snow day, tomorrow

Or at least a good delay

 

Chorus:

If it’s got to be so cold

The least that it could do is snow

 

If I have to keep my students inside

One more time, for recess, I’m gonna lose my mind

 

I love it when I get the call

That I don’t have to work at all

I can stay in bed

Watch Netflix all day

I can even spend it in my PJs

If I want

 

 

Snow, Where are you?

It’s so typical of me to ask

If you can get a move on

With the weather, you see

The kids are getting antsy

And it’s rubbing off on me

 

It’s no secret

that the both of us

Are running out of time

 

 

Chorus:

If it’s got to be so cold

The least that it could do is snow

 

If I have to keep my students inside

One more time, for recess, I’m gonna lose my mind

 

I love it when I get the call

That I don’t have to work at all

I can stay in bed

Watch Netflix all day

I can even spend it in my PJs

If I want…

 

 

Take it from the teacher’s side

You won’t hear me apologize

But checking my cell phone

Every chance that I get

I get ready, slowly

Cause I’m holding my breath

 

There is no sound that’s so sweet

As hearing salt trucks on the street

I can sleep in all day

Until I wake up

We need not lots of snow days

But no so much that we have to make them up
