The Lyrics
Hell’s bells, pell-mell are two-
word terms that rhyme
internally, that’s what they do—
no denyin’;
them just be eyein’.
Don’t you love our language?
Got so many sounds
But it’s hard to manage,
you arrive from a non-U.S. town
and try to spell, then whew!
that’s a hard time.
With time:
get used to
blue and blew
hew and hue
cue and queue
hoo and who
moo and moue
rue and roux
sue, Sioux, Sue
gnu, knew, new
do, due, dew
(also doo)
to, two, too
bow and bow
fare, fair; heir air
me, mi and tea, ti
sew, sow, and sow
So clearly,
it’s tough to spell if you
ain’t from this clime.
