word crimes

Singer:yankovic, weird al

everybody shut up

everyone listen up!

if you can't write in the proper way

if you don't know how to conjugate

maybe you flunked that class

and maybe now you find

that people mock you on-line

okay

now here's the deal

i'll try to educate ya

gonna familiarize

you with the nomenclature

you'll learn the definitions

of nouns and prepositions

literacy's your mission

and that's why i think it's a good time

to learn some grammar

now

did i stammer?

work on that grammar

you should know when

it's less" or it's "fewer"
