What is it about Adele’s “Hello” video that makes it such a ripe target for parody? The moody sepia tones? The dramatic wind? Or maybe it’s that fabulous coat? While there have been numerous hilarious takes on it, one parenting version truly stands out. Singer-songwriter Lisa Carter hilariously showcases the overwhelming stress of motherhood, giving Adele’s iconic lyrics a run for their money:
Hello, it’s me. I’d love to sip some wine and munch on cheese, But alas, I've got kids to please. One's in volleyball, the other's struggling with her D’s, Why can’t she grasp these fractions, oh please! I’m at my wit’s end… Hello from the mommy side, I must have dialed a thousand times, To tell her that this homework is breaking my heart, But my tears don’t seem to make a dent in her part. Hello, mama, how have you been? I see the Cheetos crumbs on your hands, it’s a win! You deserve a break, Between plucking those pesky whiskers and the thighs that touch skin to skin… Hello from the mommy side, I might just break down and cry, I love my children, truly I do, But does anyone have a glass of pinot noir for me too?
