Hilarious Parody Video Highlights the Chaos of Weekday Mornings
If you’ve ever felt the struggle of getting your kids out the door on a weekday morning, you’re not alone. The chaos of school-day mornings can leave even the most patient parents frazzled. Enter the Johnson family, who perfectly capture this madness in their latest parody video, It’s So Difficult to Get Them Out the Door.
Known for their clever parodies that poke fun at family life, the Johnsons have outdone themselves with this humorous take on the morning routine. Set to the melody of Boyz II Men’s “It’s So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday,” the song hilariously addresses everything from the grueling wake-up call to the frantic rush to the car—ten minutes past the intended departure time.
The video kicks off with mom Lisa Johnson yanking her sleepy kids from their beds while her husband, Mark, serenades in a comedic tone:
“Just wake up,
Please sit up and brush your tangled hair.
It’s time for school.
Don’t make me get mean and take your stuffed bear.
Making it downstairs, moving so slow,
Staring blankly at your clothes in the hall,
It’s so difficult to get ’em out the door, each day.”
As Lisa sips her coffee, she looks overwhelmed while her kids squabble, zone out, and take forever to get dressed. They can’t locate their shoes, and pants are apparently optional—just the usual morning complaints. Mark captures the essence of the morning madness with his lines:
“Any clues? Where are your shoes?
You can’t go to school without them,
Yet on weekends, you’re up at 6 am,
But on a school day, you’re like a zombie,
And I have to wake you up three times,
I feel like pulling out my hair.”
In just a few hours, the video has already racked up nearly two million views because, let’s face it, what parent can’t relate? With over 25,000 shares, it’s clear that the Johnsons have struck a chord with families everywhere. Hundreds of comments pour in from parents sharing their own morning mayhem stories and expressing gratitude to Mark and Lisa for showcasing the real struggle.
No matter how many outfits you lay out the night before or lunches you prepare in advance, chaos reigns supreme. Getting a family out the door is a wild ride, but thanks to the Johnsons, we now have a catchy tune to hum while we dash back inside for the umpteenth time to retrieve a forgotten backpack.
