The Scrabble Challenge

Seven blanks in Scrabble Might seem like a beautiful thing Any seven letter word you can think of It could be almost anything But no matter how fancy that you get No matter how rare or weird the word Each blank tile gets you zero points A zero point word – oh, how absurd So there really is no TROUBLE Trying too hard you can NEGLECT Because your score will still be NOTHING Even if the word you spell is PERFECT
