Song lyrics with adjectives for people

Post by Manny3 » Thu May 27, 2010 1:45 am

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know of any songs with adjectives for people? I already thought of one song by Alanis Morissette (not sure of the spelling) "Hand in my Pocket," but there are some words that i rather not expose to my student (ie. Chicken sh**).

Any songs, mostly popular songs would help. Thanks

I had the same problems with the chicken thing, especially as I've taught all my students to say "sugar" instead :) So, I designed a task a few years ago that doesn't involve getting the whole lyrics, but just the useful adjectives. It's also a lot more active and fun than a usual song task.

Just put it up on my blog for you here:
