Wednesday, August 20, 2014

"I like big buses and I cannot lie! Some other parents may deny, but when a big yellow one comes around the bend and picks up our children -- we get sprung"

"Cuz vacation -- we didn't get anything done. Cuz child care is expensive, so we're working and we're with them. Oh, baby, I'm gonna miss ya, so let me kiss ya."

"But then go home and try it, just sit there, cuz -- it's so quiet"

"We're packed in like sardines, four hours in this thing. Take the average child and ask them that: -- I kinda wanna go back..."

"Make it. Make it. Make that healthy lunch"

"I like em round and big: backpacks for my kids"

"We gotta buy this all -- for two! -- Double up, unh, unh!"

"I ain't talkin' 'bout this thing cuz a binder has to have three rings! They want them real thick and juicy, that pack up pink erasers and all the papers need specific spacers"

"So Ladies? -- Yeah? -- Ladies? -- Yeah? -- Wanna roll in my Mercedes?" -- "Yeah!" -- "Well, I don't have one. Can't afford one."

Parents make hilarious "Baby Got Back" parody for teachers and school staff"I can't believe school is back!"

The Holderness Family/YouTube

As school is getting back in session comes a song that gives the children a proper sendoff, "Baby Got Class." In the vein of the genius musical parody icon Weird Al, the Holderness family of Raleigh-Durham has put together a shockingly well done music video parody of Sir Mix-a-Lot's 1992 hit that never quit, "Baby Got Back." Watch below.

The music video chronicles the parents' lack of actual vacation during summer vacation, preparing their children to go back to class, and anxiously anticipating the free time parents relish while the children are occupied at school.

"Dedicated to the amazing teachers who take care of our kids all year and don't make enough money," reads the end title.

Father Penn Holderness is a veteran of the television industry, having worked for HGTV, ESPN, ABC and even as a local news anchor in Raleigh until January this year. Wanting to focus on other things, he quit the news to open his own production and marketing company with his wife, business partner and former news colleague, Kim Dean Holderness.

When not working together, the 'Holderni' create off-the-wall, family-friendly comedy videos on their YouTube channel with their children, Lola and Penn Charles.

What will you do with all the free time, now that the kids are back in school? Let us know in the comments below.
