The Sussy Bakas was a Mother’s Day Gift to my BFF, a little labor of love featuring her 3 teenage kids. Enjoy this parody of The Schuyler Sisters from @HamiltonTheMusical.
The Sussy Bakas
There’s nothing some teens love more
Than goin’ in their room and blowin’ off their chores
They pull up to their phones to watch tiktok
Ignoring all the rules as their parents talk
Take Kelly’s Benz, the car is loaded
Uh-oh, but little does he know
That his teenage sons- Antonio and Zander
Drop garbage in the back from the candy in their hands
Antonio
(Work, work!) Zander!
And Sister! (Work, work!)
The Sussy Bakas!
Antonio, Sister, Zander! (Work!)
Mother said not to text your friends now
Karen doesn’t need to know
She doesn’t like when you call her that rude name
Okay Boomer, you’re free to go
But look around, look around
Our awesome mother just took me to New York (New York)
Antonio (work!)
It’s bad enough she turned the wifi off
You had withdrawals in your chair
It’s bad enough that she makes us go to church
You learned about your body there
Look around, look around
Hey sister just remind me what we’re looking for
She’s looking for me (Shane jumps up)
Hey Tony, I’m lookin’ for a mind that twerks (work)
I’m lookin’ for a mind that twerks (work)
I’m lookin’ for a mind that twerks (work)
Whoa-ooh, whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-ooh, whoa-oh-oh (work!)
Whoo! There’s nothin’ like sussies in the city
Hormones off the charts; attention spans not pretty
Excuse me, Sis, I know it’s not funny
But your outfit looks like your Nona’s got money
You dance flamenco; your reputation is speckless
Now loan me some cash; I’ll buy my girl a nice necklace
Zan, you a sussy!
Nah, don’t be fussy
I’m a boy scout sister, you can trust me
I’ve been using “Common Sense” when I’m with Shane
My mama doesn’t need to fret; I’m very sane.
You wanna be a cool son, drop the damn conflation
And listen to my declaration
“We hold these truths to be self-evident
That all Bakas are curated equal
And when I get to uc berkeley (unh!)
I’ma thank my parents for the entire prequel (work!)
Look around, look around
At how lucky we are to be alive right now
Look around, look around
At how lucky we are to be alive right now
History is happening in the backyard
And we just happen to have the greatest mother in the world
The greatest mother in the world!
‘Cause I’ve been using “Common Sense” when I’m with Shane (look around, look around)
My mama doesn’t have to worry; I’m very sane (I saw Hugh Jackman in New York)
You want to be cool son, drop the damn conflation (look around, look around, New York)
And listen to my declaration (it’s happening)
We hold these truths to be self-evident (look around, look around)
That all Bakas are beloved equal (at how lucky we are to be alive right now)
Look around, look around
At how lucky we are to be alive right now
History is happening in the backyard
And we just happen to have the greatest mother in the world.
The greatest mother in the world!
Antonio!
(Work, work!) Zander!
And Sister! (Work, work!)
The sussy bakas! (Work, work!)
We’re looking for a mind that twerks (Work, work!)
Hey! (Work, work!)
Hey! (Work, work! Whoa!)
Hey! (Work, work!)
She’s greatest mother (work! Work!)
She’s the greatest mother in the world
She’s the greatest mother in the world!
