About this arrangement

Choral Bass, Piano, Violin, solo Voices, tenor 1, tenor 2 SKU: CF.BL1330 Composed by Christi Jones. Octavo. Duration 4 minutes. BriLee Music #BL1330. Published by BriLee Music (CF.BL1330). UPC: 672405011679. Key: E minor. English. Original.We've all been there. You're sitting in class and the teacher asks for your homework assignment, but you realize that it's not in your backpack. Suddenly, a wave of panic washes over you as you think about the consequences of not having it done on time. It can be stressful to lose a homework assignment, and this can send your mind reeling and grasping for any excuse you can think of. While debating what might be the most believable excuse to give, you stall a little longer and say to your teacher, “See, what had happened was….”Hopefully, you are a model student, and you have NO idea what I’m talking about. You always complete your homework and would never need any of the excuses listed in each verse of this song.You’ll have a chance to flex your creative excuse-making when you get to mm. 96–97. Choir members can shout out seemingly random excuses (but I’d still plan it out and practice the order). The measures can be played as written, or repeated to include as many alternate excuses as you would like. If you need help thinking of more material to shout out at mm. 96–97, here are some extra excuses to choose from: I was abducted by aliens. My computer crashed. I left it in my pocket, and it dissolved in the washing machine. My mom took it to frame it. My WiFi was too slow. I accidentally flushed it down the toilet.I hope you enjoy the song as much as my students did!~CJ.
