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?
