MOVES LIKE JAGGER

ILUSTRATING "I KISSED A GIRL"

ASSEMBLING THE EMPIRE STATE OF MIND

Here's teacher Joice's activity for her TN3 first class: Are you able to put those parts together in the correct order according to the song?

A - All of my dominicanos

Right there up on broadway,
Brought me back to that McDonalds,
Took it to my stash spot,
Five Sixty Stage street,

B - Home of that boy Biggie,

Now I live on billboard,
And I brought my boys with me,
Say what up to Ty Ty, still sipping Malta

C - [Alicia Keys]

In New York,
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
There's nothing you can’t do,
Now you're in New York,
These streets will make you feel brand new,

D - Yeah, Imma up at Brooklyn,

Now Im down in Tribeca,
Right next to DeNiro,
But I'll be hood forever,
I'm the new Sinatra,

E - Catch me in the kitchen like a simmons whipping pastry,
Cruising down 8th street,
Off white lexus,
Driving so slow but BK is from Texas,
Me I'm up at Bedsty,

F - Sitting courtside Knicks and Nets give me high fives,

Nigga I be spiked out, I can trip a referee,
Tell by my attitude that I most definitely from?

G - I made you hot nigga,

Catch me at the X with OG at a Yankee game,
Shit I made the yankee hat more famous than a yankee can,
You should know I bleed Blue, but I aint a crip though,
But I got a gang of niggas walking with my click though,

H - Labor day parade,

rest in peace Bob Marley,

Statue of Liberty, long live the World trade,

Long live the king yo, I'm from the empire state thats?

I - Big lights will inspire you,

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York

J - Welcome to the melting pot,

Corners where we selling rocks,
Afrika bambaataa shit,

K - Home of the hip hop,

Yellow cap, gypsy cap, dollar cab, holla back,

For foreigners it aint fitted act like they forgot how to act,

8 million stories out there and their naked,

Cities is a pity half of y'all won't make it,

Me I gotta plug a special and I got it made,

If Jesus payin LeBron, I'm paying Dwayne Wade,

3 dice cee-lo

3 card marley,

L - The city of sin is a pity on a whim,

Good girls gone bad, the cities filled with them,

Mommy took a bus trip and now she got her bust out,

Everybody ride her, just like a bus route,

Hail Mary to the city your a Virgin,

And Jesus can't save you life starts when the church ends,

Came here for school, graduated to the high life,

Ball players, rap stars, addicted to the limelight,

MDMA got you feeling like a champion,

The city never sleeps better slip you a Ambien

M - One hand in the air for the big city,

Street lights, big dreams all looking pretty,

No place in the World that can compare,

Put your lighters in the air, everybody say yeaaahh

Come on, come,

Yeah,

N -Welcome to the bright light..

[Jay-Z]
Lights is blinding,
Girls need blinders
So they can step out of bounds quick,
The side lines is blind with casualties,
Who sipping life casually, then gradually become worse,
Don't bite the apple Eve,
Caught up in the in crowd,
Now your in style,

And in the winter gets cold en vogue with your skin out,

BILINGUAL AGNUS DEI

Digno eres Tú, Digno eres Tú, Worthy is the Lamb, Worthy is the Lamb

Tu Eres Santo, Santo You are holy

El Señor Dios poderoso Holy are You Lord God Almighty

Digno eres Tú, Digno eres Tú, Worthy is the Lamb, Worthy is the Lamb

Amén. Amen

DRAWING MICHAEL BUBLE'S FEELING GOOD

Some years ago I decided to use Michael Buble's FEELING GOOD in some of my classes and help them understand the lyrics by making some of these drawings that replace the missing parts of the text. At that time, I used to write for bloggyglota. Today I write here, but I'm still feeling good.

high, you know how I feel

in the sky,

you know how I feel

Breeze drifting on by

you know how I feel

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life

for me, and I'm feeling good

in the sea, you know how I feel

running free, you know how I feel

You know how I feel

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life

for me, and I'm feeling good

You Know what I mean, don't you know

you know what I mean

That's what I mean

and this old

is a new world, and a bold world for me

when you shine, you know what I mean

scent of the ...

you know how I feel

is all mine and you know how I feel

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life

for me, and I'm feeling good

USED TO WAIT in THE WILDERNESS DOWNTOWN

We aren't able to fully appreciate this interactive film with pictures of our city, São José do Rio Preto - not yet. But if you bear good memories of a well-known place completely photographed by google maps you might enjoy your town featured on this fantastic THE WILDERNESS DOWNTOWN. Here, we recommend that you study the usage of USED TO to refer to things that we no longer do, as in the lyrics of this song, by Arcade Fire:

I used to write,I used to write letters

I used to sign my name

I used to sleep at night

Before the flashing lights

Settled deep in my brain

But by the time we met

By the time we met

The times had already changed

So I never wrote a letter

I never took my true heart

I never wrote it down

So when the lights cut out

I was left standing in the

Wilderness downtown

Now our lives are changing fast

Now our lives are changing fast

Hope that something pure can last

Hope that something pure can last

It seems strange

How we used to wait

For letters to arrive

But what's stranger still

Is how something so small

Can keep you alive

We used to wait

We used to waste

Hours just walking around

We used to wait

All those wasted lives in

The wilderness downtown

Ooooh we used to wait

Ooooh we used to wait

Ooooh we used to wait

Sometimes it never came

(ooooh we used to wait)

Sometimes it never came

(ooooh we used to wait)

Still moving through the pain

(oooooooooooh)

I'm gonna write a letter

To my true love

I'm gonna sign my name

Like a patient on a table

I wanna walk again

Gonna move through the pain

Now our lives are changing fast

Now our lives are changing fast

Hope that something pure can last

Hope that something pure can last

Ooooh we used to wait

Ooooh we used to wait

Ooooh we used to wait

Sometimes it never came

(ooooh we used to wait)

Sometimes it never came

(ooooh we used to wait)

Still moving through the pain(oooooooooooh)

We used to wait (x3)

We used to wait for it

We used to wait for it

Now we're screaming

Sing the chorus again

We used to wait for it

We used to wait for it

Now we're screaming

Sing the chorus again

I used to wait for it

I used to wait for it

Hear my voice screaming

Sing the chorus again

Wait for it! (x3)
