Makaton CarPark Karaoke - MAKE YOUR OWN KIND OF MUSIC - Singing Hands

Описание: This is such a great cover of a classic song by Paloma Faith - so we just had to do it as a #Makaton #CarPark #Karaoke. The message within the lyrics are perfect for everyone we sing with - you are unique and you just need to keep on doing your own thing!

Notes on signing - we've use the sign for BULLY for the line 'they might try and sell you' - don't really know what that line means as they are definitely not actually 'selling you' but it seems that the intent of the line is that others are being mean and unkind to you, so BULLY is a great sign to learn. It's a slightly bent index finger pushing twice under your chin.

This leads into the next line 'Cos it hangs them up to see someone like you' - so essentially, you worry or bother them with your unique approach to life. So we sign WORRY / THEM. Seems to work for the meaning of these lyrics. You aren't hanging them up on a hook obviously!

The only other thing to note is that Paloma sings an incorrect lyric at the start of verse 2 - it should be 'You're gonna be knowing, the loneliest kind of lonely' - she sings 'You're gonna be nowhere' - but we've stuck with the original lyric and signed TO KNOW as it makes more sense in relation to line 2.

Here's the rest of the lyrics and sign choices:
Nobody can tell you (NOBODY / TELL / YOU) *NOBODY = NOTHING + PERSON
There's only one song worth singing (ONLY / ONE / SONG / GOOD / SING)
They may try and sell you (THEY / BULLY / YOU)
'Cause it hangs them up (WORRY / THEM)
To see someone like you (SEE / SOMEONE / SAME / YOU) *someone is who+person
But you gotta make your own kind of music (YOU / MUST / MAKE / YOUR / MUSIC)
Sing your own special song (SING / SPECIAL / SONG)
Make your own kind of music (MAKE / YOUR / MUSIC)
Even if nobody else sings along (NOBODY / SING / WITH YOU *MOVE AWAY FROM SELF)

You're gonna be knowing (YOU / KNOW)
The loneliest kind of lonely (FEEL / LONELY)
It may be rough going (MAYBE / DIFFICULT)
Just to do your thing is the hardest thing to do (DO / THING / DIFFICULT / THING / DO) -
But you gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
So if you cannot take my hand
And if you must be going, I will understand
'Cause You gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
Oh you gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own kind of song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
Sing with me
Make your own
Sing your own song (sing your own special song)
Make your own
