A Hilarious Song For Every Parent in the World. You'll Laugh. Maybe Cry

A Hilarious Song For Every Parent in the World. You'll Laugh. Maybe Cry
This version, with lyrics by Matthew Hodge (clearly a long-suffering parent), begins: "Oh you terror, get down from there." Image courtesy: Facebook/Mamavation
To parents of young children everywhere, here's a video which pretty much sums up your life. In addition, it will crack you up.

Performed by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, this is the famous O Fortuna from 1935 cantata Carmina Burana (you might have heard it in the Old Spice commercials) - with different words. 

The original cantata begins with these words - "O Fortuna, velut luna."

This version, with lyrics by Matthew Hodge (clearly a long-suffering parent), begins: "Oh you terror, get down from there."

We know! Right?

"Where are those pants? Don't throw those blocks. Who let you in the kitchen?" - you get it. 

You'll be doubled up with laughter, unlike the Sydney Philharmonic who manage to sing till the end with poker faces. If you are parent to a young child/ren, you might be crying a little through the laughs too. And you have our sympathies.

Watch:
 

Are you a sleep deprived parent? Well, regardless if you get enough sleep or not, you WILL find this hysterical if you have little ones. After hearing this from the Sydney Symphony Orchestra I almost peed my pants from laughing so hard. I felt like they were recording my life! Does any of this sound familiar to you? Share!
