the “if bonnie tyler taught my grade-school music class” poem

I need a guiro
I’m holding out for a guiro, I can hope and wish
It’s gotta be strong and it’s gotta be loud
and it’s gotta be shaped like a fish.

  1. Is that pronounced WHHEEEro? I wouldn’t know, I always snagged the woodblocks.


  2. Good luck with the interviews btw.


  3. Thanks.

    Guiro is pronounced “GWEE-roh”. I got stuck with the damn sticks too. The popular girls always got the Autoharp and the guiro.


  4. I find it strange that autoharps don’t exist outside of elementary school music rooms.
