Spellbound A Whimsical Journey Through English Phonetics歌词完整版
Verse 1
"In the world of English, what a playful jest,
'Ph' like 'f' in 'phone'—who would've guessed?
Then there’s 'gh' in 'laugh,' a sneaky silent sound,
Confusions abound, let's spin them around!" (Laugh sounds like "leaf")
Chorus
"Oh, English, dear riddle, wrapped up in glee,
Silent letters, odd rules, oh what a spree!
'Ph' for 'f'? Sure, let’s make it a thing,
In this quirky language game, let’s dance and sing!" (Sing sounds like "sine")
Verse 2
"'Through' and 'though,' where 'gh' floats away,
And 'ph' in 'alphabet,' what a wondrous play!
'Knight' and 'night'—same sound, different sight,
English, oh English, you’re a mischievous light!" (Light sounds like "late")
Bridge
"Why these letters, why this spell,
In a puzzling whirl, where meanings dwell?
It's a letter tango, a spellbinding brew,
In this alphabet soup, what’s a word lover to do?" (Do sounds like "dough")
Chorus
"English, you puzzle, you're tricky and fun,
'Cough,' 'bough,' 'dough,' under the sun.
None sound the same, the laugh’s truly on us,
In this lyrical, comical, fantastical fuss!" (Fuss sounds like "fuse")
Verse 3
"Queue up the choir, let’s sing ‘colonel’ right,
But sound it like ‘kernel,’ to everyone’s delight.
‘Island’ with an ‘s’, silent as a mime,
This lyrical feast, oh what a sublime rhyme!" (Rhyme sounds like "ream")
Outro
"So sing out loud, mispronounce with flair,
In this language game, it’s fair to dare.
Spell ‘fish’ as ‘ghoti,’ if you wish to play,
English, oh English, you’ve made our day!" (Day sounds like "die")
