Spelling Bee Girl
guitar chords lyrics
We had a spelling bee competition
When we were both back in Grade One
I must admit I thought I would win it
But then you took the podium
You were so cool and calm and collected
You were like a precocious queen
When you knew gnu was spelt g-n-u
I knew you would rule supreme
Spelling Bee Girl - your amazing vocabulary
Has put a spell on me - Spelling Bee Girl
Of course I mean spell metaphorically
I? m using spell and spell as homonyms
You looked so beautiful? so lovely
As you formed consonants and vowels
I got a funny tingly feeling
You looked so beautiful? so lovely
As you formed consonants and vowels
I got a funny tingly feeling
Deep in my heart and in my bowels
I was all nervous? I was all sweaty
And when they finally called on me
I had to spell? rhinoceros?
And I spelt it l-o-v-e
Spelling Bee Girl? you seemed to know phlegm was spelt with a p
And had a silent g - Spelling Bee Girl
You didn? t use lip-gloss until Grade 3
You used lip glossary? that was a joke
? I? is for I love you? N? is for nouns you knew
? G? is the noise I made? B? ing so close to you
? G? I? m so full of doubt? I? -? d like to ask you out
? R? you aware I? m in? L? when you? re not around
Put them all together and they spell:
? ING B GIRL? your linguistic perspicacity
Discombobulated me? Spelling Bee Girl
You and me both sitting in a tree
K-i-s-i-n-g? I? ve spelt that wrong
Wrong? wrong - wrong
