There, They’re, Their

*REFRAIN*
If you mean where, say “there”
If you mean they are, say “they’re”
If you’re talking possession, say “their”
Just know which one you mean


T-H-E-R-E is a location, [know what I mean?]
Like “There is a hamster in a wheel”
Or “No, he’s over there – what’s the deal?”

*Refrain*

T-H-E-Y-apostrophe-R-E
It just means, “They are”
Like, “They’re in a car”
Or, “They’re all much better at dodgeball than we are!”

*Refrain*

T-H-E-I-R tells possession, like “I love their car”
Or “Their hair sure looks wack”
Or “I wish I had their snack”
Or “Their unicycle [doesn’t] have handlebars”

*Refrain*

They’re over there, with their funky, funky hair (x4)
