Moanin‘ Lisa Blues — Lisa Simpson
I’ve got a bratty brother, he bugs me every day.
This morning my old mother gave my last cupcake away,
My daddy acts like he belongs in the zoo,
I’m the saddest kid in Grade number two.
I wish I had a pony, I wish I were eighteen,
I wish I had a dime for every kid who treats me mean.
They tease me ,cause I’m different, a little different from the rest,
Oh yes, if I cheered up I’d still be depressed.
The saxophone’s my best friend, I play all over town,
But when I practise in my room I hear, „Lisa, keep it down“!,
Although I’m only eight years old, I’ve really paid my dues,
That’s why I’ve got a case of the moanin' Lisa blues.
I wonder how I got here, I wonder what I’ll be,
The saddest little twig on this crazy family tree,
I feel I’m like a loser with nothing left to lose,
That’s why I’ve got a case of the moanin’ Lisa blues.

Stundum er heppilegt að búa
til tvær útgáfur af sama textanum
fyrir ólík getustig. Hér fer á eftir
texti sem Simpson hjónin syngja
skýrt og af innlifun — síðan fylgir
eyðufylling sem nota má alveg
niður í byrjendabekk í ensku. Ef
þurfa þykir má auðvelda verkefn-
ið með því að gefa upp, í ruglaðri
röð, öll orðin sem vantar í eyð-
urnar. í seinni útgáfunni vandast
málið mikið, þar sem einungis
fyrsta orð í hverri línu er gefið.
Það verkefni hentar vel í hrað-
ferð í 10. bekk.
