The Backyardigans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What's shakin'
I'm an ace reporter, if it weren't for me, there'd never be news on your TV
I bring the big story, I'm proud to say, to the viewers watching
Everydaaay...
On W-I-O-WA: Corniest station in the nation! W-I-O-WA: Corniest station in
The nation!
Reporters are brave, reporters are proud, reporters like to talk real fast
With my microphone and my camera operator, I say "Back to you" instead of
"See ya later"
I go find the news no matter the place and make that serious reporter
Faaace
On W-I-O-WA: Corniest station in the nation! W-I-O-WA: Corniest station in
The nation!
W-I-O-WA...
The Backyardigans's "W-I-O-Wa" is a song about an ace reporter who goes wherever the news is breaking to bring the big story to the viewers watching. The singer of the song is proud to be an ace reporter and claims that if it weren't for them, there would never be news on TV. They are known for their bravery, sense of pride and for always talking fast and loud.
The chorus of the song repeats "W-I-O-WA: Corniest station in the nation!" which could be a nod to the fact that the station they work for might not be the biggest or the most prestigious, but it doesn't stop them from delivering the news to their viewers every day.
The lyrics of this song could be interpreted in many ways, but one thing they do highlight is the importance of reporters and journalists in our society. Journalists are responsible for bringing us the news, sometimes putting their own lives at risk to do so. The song also touches on the idea that news reporting is often driven by ratings and popularity, which can result in a focus on more sensational stories rather than important ones.
