Lazy Man Lazy Nursery Rhyme Lyrics

"The Lazy Man's Lazy" is a folk nursery rhyme, the full saying of which is as follows:

The lazy man is lazy, and he weaves carpets.

When the carpet can't be woven, he learns to weave a hedge.

If you can't weave a hedge tightly, learn to grind flour.

If you can't grind the flour, you can learn to sing opera.

If you can't get into the tune of the opera, you can learn to carry a sedan chair.

The sedan chair was slow, so I had to eat white rice.

It is not possible to eat for free, so I have to suffer for the rest of my life.

Children's songs enrich children's vocabulary and enhance their ability to express themselves. The words and phrases in children's songs are usually shallow and concise. Because of their simplicity, they make it easy for children to understand their meanings, appreciate their feelings, appreciate the mood of the period, and learn new vocabulary very quickly.

The role of nursery rhymes:

Intellectual education: children's knowledge is shallow, life experience is limited, and the content of children's songs, and the vast majority of them are to describe the general life situation, the congratulations of folklore and festivals, or the sun, moon, stars, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, astronomical meteorology, and other natural landscapes;

even about the fish, insects, birds and animals, flowers, plants, trees, colors, numbers and other imaginary plots, not only vivid and interesting, in line with the children's appetite, and the subject matter is all-encompassing, more to meet the children's curious mentality. Therefore, children can get new experience and knowledge from nursery rhymes.
