Too Many Words
The English language is really messed up
Not to mention, the confusion it brings
Sometimes, I don't undestand it
Just listen to some of these things
We have, "to, too and two"
And it don't add up to six
Ain't that a little confusing?
I'm thinkin' we need a fix
And then, there's, "there, their and they're"
What does this even mean?
Don't you think this language,
Is the craziest you've ever seen?
What about, "for, four and fore"?
Really, who come up with this stuff?
Don't they know learning to read
Was already tough enough?
We have, "pair, pare and pear"
You think they ran out of words?
And I'm not the only one
That this language disturbs
You've heard, "praise, prays and preys"
I mean, how many do we really need?
These words can drive you crazy
Do we need them for to succeed?
Then there's, "heal, heel and he'll"
Homophones are what they're called
It can make some people angry
While other's are simply appalled
One more, "sees, seas and seize"
You know I'm just kidding tho, right?
Without these awesome, wonderful words
How would we ever be able to write?
