Xtra.
Xtra.
someone yelled out.
And I notice I never heard the E.
Oh, for the sake of me.
But it seems words are constantly confusing me.
If you say telephone or least spell it.
You notice there is no F.
Oh, what will this English?
Where you constantly spelling something wrong?
I been hear. Or here.
I been their. Or there.
See the way I can get lost writing things in my head.
Xtraordinary!
Someone shouted out.
And I still didn't hear an E.
Again, what must the reason be?
Should somebody suggest a Webster's dictionary to me?
It probably won't do any good.
Because if I go to another country I be confused once more.
Because they spell things different too.
Oh, I hope I'm not a fool?
Xplicit.
It also begins with an E.
But, I'm tire of taking about that letter.
That seems to start many words.
Only to figure out it hardly ever gets heard.
Xcept in the word Ease.
But then the X confuse me too.
Because that letter makes all of us look like a fool.
