C E7 Am Fadd9 Everybody shut up! (woo!) Everyone listen up! C Hey, hey, hey E7 Hey, hey, hey Am Fadd9 Hey, hey, hey [Verse 1] C If you can't write E7 In the proper way Am If you don't know Fadd9 How to conjugate C Maybe you flunked that class E7 And maybe now you find Am Fadd9 That people mock you online (Everybody wise up!) [Pre-Chorus 1] C Okay, now here's the deal E7 I'll try to educate ya Am Gonna familiarize Fadd9 You with the nomenclature C You'll learn the definitions E7 Of nouns and prepositions Am Literacy's your mission Fadd9 And that's why I think it's a [Chorus] C Good time E7 To learn some grammar Am Now, did I stammer Fadd9 Work on that grammar C You should know when E7 It's "less" or it's "fewer" Am Like people who were Fadd9 Never raised in a sewer C I hate these word crimes E7 Like "I could care less" (Hey, Hey, Hey!) Am That means you C care Fadd9 At least a little C Don't be a moron Am You'd better slow down E7 And use the right pronoun Fadd9 Show the world you're no clown [Verse 2] C Say you've got an "it" E7 Followed by apostrophe "s" Am Now, what does that mean? Fadd9 You would not use "it’s" in this case C As a possessive (no, no, no!) E7 It's a contraction (yeah, yeah, yeah!) Am What's a contraction? Fadd9 Well, it's the shortening of a word or a group of words By omission of a sound or letter [Pre-Chorus 2] C Okay, now here are some notes E7 Syntax you’re always mangling Am No X in "espresso" Fadd9 Your participle's danglin' C But I don't want your drama E7 If you really wanna Am Fadd9 Leave out that Oxford comma [Chorus] C Just keep in mind that "be", "see", "are", "you" E7 Are words, not letters Am Get it together Fadd9 Use your spell checker C You should never E7 Write words using numbers Am Unless you're seven Fadd9 Or your name is Prince C I hate these word crimes (I hate them crimes) E7 You really need a (I hate them crimes) Am Full-time proofreader (I mean those crimes) Fadd9 You dumb mouthbreather C Well, you should hire E7 Some cunning linguist Am To help you distinguish Fadd9 What is proper English [Bridge] C One thing I ask of you E7 Time to learn your homophones is past due Am Learn to diagram a sentence, too Fadd9 Always say "to whom", don't ever say "to who" C And listen up when I tell you this E7 I hope you never use quotation marks for emphasis Am You finished second grade, I hope you can tell Fadd9 If you're doing good or doing well C You'd better figure out the difference E7 Irony is not coincidence Am And I thought that you'd gotten it through your skull Fadd9 About what's figurative and what's literal C Oh, but just now, you said E7 You "literally couldn't get out of bed" Am That really makes me want to literally Fadd9 Smack a crowbar upside your stupid head [Chorus] C I read your e-mail E7 It's quite apparent Am Your grammar's errant Fadd9 You're incoherent C Saw your blog post E7 It's really fantastic Am That was sarcastic (Oh, psych!) Fadd9 ’Cause you write like a spastic C I hate these word crimes E7 Your prose is dopey Am Think you should only Fadd9 Write in emoji C Oh, you're a lost cause E7 Go back to pre-school Am Get out of the gene pool Fadd9 Try your best to not drool [Outro] C E7 Never mind, I give up Am Fadd9 Really now, I give up C Hey, hey, hey Am Hey, hey, hey E7 Go away! Fadd9
