Kids are known for saying some adorable and unexpected things. Whether they’re yelling out embarrassing secrets to strangers or hilariously imitating adults, they always keep us on our toes.
When kids get on a stage, it’s another ball game entirely.
Every child is different in front of a crowd. Some of them become very shy while others are obviously born for the spotlight. Among these are one adorable 4-year-old from Mississippi who went viral for improvising during a song at his preschool graduation.
The little boy was supposed to be singing a song about the books of the New Testament.
He did admirably up until the very end when he decided to go in a slightly different direction by mixing in some George Strait lyrics. Specifically, the song “All My Exes Live in Texas.”
The crowd immediately began to laugh and cheer, amused by the little boy’s gumption. Even though his teacher dashed up to take the microphone away, the boy still got through a couple of lines. And luckily even she was laughing, so there was no harm done.
The little boy didn’t look ashamed at all as he took his place back in line with the other preschoolers.
In fact, he looked pleased and proud that he’d managed to get away with the whole line. Meanwhile, his classmates looked more than a little bit confused about what was going on.
After the video was uploaded to YouTube, comments exploded, with people expressing admiration and hilarity over the little boy’s impromptu performance.
“This is hands down the cutest, yet funniest thing on the web today,” wrote one commenter on YouTube. “Awesome job to the teacher and parents, because he did an amazing job singing those bible verses. But…the end is priceless!! He even starts to rush to get the song out because he see the lady coming for the mic and he knows his time is running out!!! Absolutely Adorable!!” [sic]
Others pointed out how funny it was to see the little boy tense with excitement as he waited to get to the part he really wanted to sing.
Clearly, he has a mischievous sense of humor and a great love of the spotlight. And while he might have acted out of turn, he gave everyone in the audience a laugh — and his parents a memory to treasure forever. There’s no doubt the story will be featured around many dinner tables in the future.
“I think this is so cute!” said another YouTube commenter.
“I love how the little boy is trying to sing it faster as the teacher is coming up to him. He sure took opportunity of the stage! I am not much for country but I do know this song and I think even George Straight himself would be proud! We all can always use a little laughter in our lives and what better way than a little kid singing and being a Ham! What a cutie pie!” [sic]
There’s no word on what this George Strait fan has been up to recently years, but thanks to his sudden performance, the internet will never forget him.
