gerbert I wonder what was so funny I
don't know but with those two it's
probably about something spiteful what
do you say that for Melissa we used to
be good friends with hatley's whole
family but hatley's changed he's always
up to no good and whatever Hatley does
Max does and they're always getting into
trouble at school well I've heard
they're great but your fifth graders
they never be friends with me I'm a
sixth grader and I'm your friend yeah
but that's different Melissa you're a
girl sometimes a guy just wants to be
one of the guys I understand but just be
careful who you decide to be one of the
guys with
berbert yeah I guess so
[Music]

made my own music by making an
instrument call A marcka or a Shaker and
you can make it too got one right here

soda pot bottle all emptied and dried
out you need some mixed beans rice some
bird seed or little Pebbles anything
that you can get into that bottle if you
can shake it make a sandwich
don't forg get to put the cap back on
and then you can decorate it if you want
to and see what I did to mine put
ribbons on it and I put decorations
around it with some tape and some
markers the main thing is the music you
shake it like this you say hey Mom I can
make music she says what are you doing
with those beans in that bottle you say
I'm a musician and I wrote a song
