[00:04.58] Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
[00:08.60] Hooking up words and phrases and clauses
[00:12.86] Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
[00:16.64] I've got three favorite cars that get most of my job done
[00:21.15] Conjunction Junction, what's their function?
[00:24.66] I've got and, but, and or
[00:26.42] They'll get you pretty far
[00:29.43] And!
[00:30.18] That's an additive, like this and that
[00:33.05] But!
[00:34.30] That's sort of the opposite
[00:35.57] Not this but that
[00:36.58] And then there's Or. O-R
[00:39.03] When you have a choice like this or that
[00:42.50] And, but, and or get you pretty far!
[00:46.15] Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
[00:49.97] Hooking up two boxcars and making 'em run right
[00:53.98] Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice
[00:56.99] (Hey that's nice)
[00:58.49] Dirty but happy, digging and scratchin'
[01:00.50] Losing your shoe and a button or two
[01:02.26] He's poor but honest, sad but true
[01:04.28] Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
[01:06.32] Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
[01:10.67] Hooking up two cars to one
[01:11.93] When you say something like this choice
[01:14.69] Either now or later
[01:17.11] Or no choice:
[01:18.26] Neither now nor ever
[01:20.76] (Hey that's clever)
[01:22.78] Eat this or that, Grow thin or fat
[01:25.04] Never mind, I wouldn't do that
[01:26.29] I'm fat enough now!
[01:27.02] Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
[01:30.78] Hookin' up phrases and clauses that balance, like:
[01:35.04] Out of the frying pan and into the fire
[01:39.30] He cut loose the sandbags
[01:40.55] But the balloon wouldn't go any higher
[01:43.31] Let's go up to the mountains or down to the seas
[01:46.85] You should always say Thank you
[01:48.86] Or at least say Please!
[01:52.12] Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
[01:55.45] Hookin'-up words and phrases and clauses
[01:58.39] In complex sentences like:
[02:00.03] "In the mornings, when I am usually wide awake, I love to take a walk through the gardens and down by the lake, where I often see a duck and a drake, and I wonder as I walk by just what they'd say if they could speak, although I know that's an absurd thought."
[02:16.28] Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
[02:20.04] Hookin'-up cars and making them function
[02:24.05] Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
[02:28.06] I like tying up words and phrases and clauses
[02:33.27] Conjunction Junction, watch that function!
[02:36.34] I'm going to get you there if you're very careful
[02:41.06] Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
[02:44.96] I'm going to get you there if you're very careful
