Just heard this on Between the Lions! I laughed all the way through it! Somebody was pretty clever to think this up, imo!
W Trouble
I got W trouble
And I know what's to blame.
It's because there's no "wuh" sound
In W's name.
I am wasted, and woeful,
And wilted and tense.
What's with W's "wuh" sound?
It doesn't make sense!
You know, M makes an "mmm" sound,
And J just goes "juh,"
And S has a "sss" sound,
And D sounds like "duh."
But there's no "wuh" in "double-u"
And, tell me please,
Why a letter called "double-u"
Looks like two Vs.
I got W trouble
I worry and weep.
I am worn out and weary
And I'm losing sleep.
But I won't lose my will,
No, whatever it takes,
I'll remember the "wuh" sound
That W makes!
I'll remember the "wuh" sound
That W makes!
It is clever, but the title sounds like something Howard Dean would say. :-P
Actually it reminds me of the songs about the alphabet they do on Sesame Street!
