“WORD!” Firefighters produce rap video on fire safety, “Cougars” become biggest fans

The next time the guys upstairs call and ask you to produce a simple public safety announcement, remember how these Midland, Michigan firefighters responded.

Instead of creating the same old tired, “thou shall not” PSA’s, “Mix Master Mark and the Ax Men” decided to take their project down a different road.

The result?  With a little help from CNN, their video on YouTube went viral.

“It seems like the female group around the 40 age has been picking up on it. Hopefully, they’ll show their kids the message in the video,” one of the “Ax Men” Steve Makowski said with a chuckle.

If you want to sing along, here are the group words:

Fire…script…fuse…floor…partake…fool…date…fable…’sition…Randy…crime…rocket…brotha…try…Fudd…illegal…submit…illegit…gang…stray…WORD!
