Written and produced by two of our own who serve our students with special needs:
• Lyrics (inspired by Drake): Kerri Tracy, school counselor at our Virginia Randolph Education Center (VREC).
• Vocals: Andre Bailey, VREC instructional assistant, and Andy Jenks, the snow day guy.
Special shout-out to filmmaker and HCPS parent Martin Montgomery, who so generously shared his time and talent to bring this song to life, as well as Victor Nash for adding some special “snow effects”!
LYRICS:
(Dre) Trapped, trapped in my jammies.
Snow got me in my feelings
Gotta be real with it, yup
Andy, do you hear me, I’m not driving
There’s two inches of snow and I’m sliding
So I want ya, and I need ya
To call for a snow day
Andy, do you hear me? I’m not riding
There’s a dusting of snow so I can’t go
I don’t want ta, and I need a
At least a good delay
This is a new year, but I’m not tryna be here
I know you gotta feel me, break’s a distant memory
You gotta make some choices, and pick the best option
Cause it’s been coming down and they don’t know when it’s stopping
And when it gets to stoppin’, you’ll see what I’ve been learning
Cash in those days, we can spend them like we earned it
We’ll make up our exams, come on Andy, we deserve it
So go and make the call, take the jump, just confirm it
Trapped in my jammies
Bought some milk and bread, it’s snowing heavy
Ice down the block, slippin’ steady
This is special Jenks, we don’t get too many
Andy, do you hear me, I’m not driving
There’s two inches of snow and I’m sliding
So I want ya, and I need ya
To please call for a snow day
Andy, do you hear me? I’m not riding
There’s a dusting of snow so I can’t go
I don’t want ta, and I need a
At least a good delay
(Andy) Too bad it’s not turning into rain, turning to rainTurn-turnin’ into rain
I made that phone call with the code for the day,
The code for the day, code zero zero, ey. Uh
Take a break from your homework
Disney+ chill, hope your Wi-i-Fi works
(Dre) So I want ya, and I need ya
To please call for a snow day
Andy, do you hear me, I’m not driving
There’s two inches of snow and I’m sliding
So I want ya, and I need ya
To please call for a snow day
Andy, do you hear me? I’m not riding
There’s a dusting of snow so I can’t go
I don’t want ta, and I need a
At least a good delay
[Music fades out]
