 Party-Prep directions:

There will be a celebration,
Please send out the invitations.
Don’t forget the cake,
Come help clean and decorate.


So this’ll exceed all expectation

Rap about party prep:
 
Hey dude,
I need you to buy the food, for this
Party that I’m throwing for
My dad he’s turning fifty-four
This really needs to, be the best party that anyone has ever seen
Help with the party invitations
The fresh decorations
I need you to clean the house and also iron my blouse
Thanks for doing these chores, they will be quite a bore but
With you my dad’s birthday party won’t be a snore.
