Here are some alternate lyrics for Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, aka the preposition song.

Aboard, about, above, across,
after, against, along, amid,
among, around, as, at, atop,
before, behind, below, beneath, beside,
between, beyond, but, by, concerning,
down, during, except, for, from, in,
in front of, inside, instead of,
into, like, near, next to, of, off,
on, out, out of, outside, over
past, regarding, since,
through, throughout, 'til, to, towards, underneath,
under, unlike, until, up, up to,
upon, with, within, without,
and they shouted out with glee
Ms. Floerchinger's eighth graders
will make preposition history!

From my English class! There's a linking verb song too, but I don't remember it.

It is ok to end sentences with prepositions...

But that's something you were probably already aware of...

Physics carols, anyone?

I remember we had a version of Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer that we used to sing in 4th grade that went something like this:
Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny gun
And if you ever saw it
You would drop your pants and run

That was as far as it went. Similar to Whistler's version, but it contains the word "pants", which for some reason was hilarious back then.
