The Dictionary Song |
LyricsIf you fell into a dictionaryIt might seem very scary But don't you worry if you do You just might find you'd learn a new word or two Well I fell into a dictionary At first it was very scary Now I have a different point of view You see it helped me to learn a new word or two Words raining down around my head So many words I've never read Where have I been I've never seen So many words I don't understand Look at all these words Oh Look at all these words Oh Learning a new word is always Something good to do Helps you to express yourself and Get your message through Falling into a dictionary Doesn't have to be too scary Increase your vocabulary Learning something new If you fell into a dictionary It might seem very scary But don't you worry if you do You just might find you'd learn a new word or two Well I fell into my dictionary At first it was very scary Now I have a different point of view You see it helped me to learn a new word or two Words swirling round and round my brain So many words I can't explain Where have I been? I've never seen So many words I don't understand Look at all these words Oh-oh Look at all these words Oh Words and music by Judy Cook registered with socan |
