Song DescriptionThis is a fun song for families. Kids love to dramatize their part and parents now have a mantra to say "no" to their begging children. Bridge offers homespun wisdom for all ages.
Story Behind the SongSubtitle: The Walmart Song. Kids are always asking mommy and daddy to buy things and parents are always saying the same thing. NO. Now parents don't have to say it...they can SING it!

Nice intro. Short. Nice harp lick and chimes to get us into the song. Nice use of kids voices. GREAT SUBJECT! Well constructed lyric. What parent hasn't experienced this? Great use of the harp throughout. I like mommy's growl on the word "understand". Likewise on mommy and daddy singing together on the bridge part.
Great instrumentation and mix. I listened four times and heard something new each time.I love the line "no means no all over the land".

CHILD: Mommy, I want it!
I gotta gotta have it.
Mommy, buy it.
All the kids have got it.
Mommy, mommy, mommy,
mommy, mommy, mommy PLEASE!
Mom: No
Child: But Mom!
When Mama says no, mama means no.
What part of NO don't you understand?
When Mama says no, Mama means no.
No means No all over the land.
Daddy, I want it!
I gotta gotta have it.
Daddy, buy it.
All the kids have got it.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy,
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy PLEASE!
Dad: No
Child: But Dad!
When Daddy says no, daddy means no.
What part of no don't you understand?
When Daddy says no, Daddy means no.
No means no all over the land.
Sometimes Love says Yes.
Sometimes Love says No.
You'll get that figured out
By the time that you are grown.
But if you work real hard and do your chores
And if we approve of what you're asking for....
We might say YES!
CHILD: When daddy says yes, OOO that's the best.
When daddy says yes, well it makes me smile
When daddy says yes, OOO that's the best.
DADDY: Yes, Oh Yes my sweet honey child!
CHILD: When mama says yes, OOO that's the best.
When mama says yes, well it makes me smile.
When Mama says yes, OOO that's the best.
Yes Oh Yes my sweet honey child.
