歌曲的由来
“会热吗 会冷吗 你就这样穿着出门吗” 全世界的妈妈都这样唠叨
网上有一首描写妈妈爱唠叨的歌曲很红，创作这首《妈妈之歌》的是美国喜剧女演员安妮塔·兰弗洛，她是3位孩子的母亲，为了照顾小家伙们的起居，她和天底下很多妈妈一样，整天唠叨不停。一个偶然的机会，安妮塔灵光闪现，“为何不把唠叨谱成一首歌呢？这样一定很有趣。”于是她将自己每天常絮叨的话写成简短的歌词，配着意大利作曲家罗西尼的《威廉泰尔序曲》唱了出来……当这首《妈妈之歌》被放到网上后，引起了强烈反响，很多网友表示，这首歌写得“太真实”了，也十分有趣。
《妈妈之歌》的歌词是：“起床！起床！快起来！去洗脸！去刷牙！记得梳头！这是你的衣服，你的鞋子，你有没有在听我说话啊？别忘了叠被子……”天！多么可怕的喋喋不休的一个妈妈！这首歌一出场，满堂笑声，可见这是大家公认的妈妈的形象。
据说歌词除了英文版、中文版，还被翻译成西班牙语等各种语言，甚至还有手语版。又听说之后歌曲作者又开始冥思苦想，还特地找来了一群“爸爸”共同讨论，把父亲常挂在嘴边教育孩子的话记录下来，创作一首《爸爸之歌》。
那么《爸爸之歌》的歌词是怎样的呢？很简单——“好吧！问你妈！问你妈！”
怎么样，歌词很生动吧？父亲“粗线条”的管教方式和母亲的事无巨细形成鲜明对比。但不管是《妈妈之歌》还是《爸爸之歌》，都唱出了天下父母的爱子之心，虽然孩子们多数受不了.
