\n\u00a9 Non Si Sa Mai Music ASCAP<\/em><\/p>\n

CHORUS:
\nWords, words, we love words
\nWe\u2019re expanding our Vocabulary
\nWords, words, we love words
\nWe really love to read the Dictionary
\nWords, words, it\u2019s really not scary
\nIf you ask us how we like it we say VERY, VERY much<\/p>\n

VERSE 1:
\nA NOUN is a word that\u2019s a person, thing, or place
\nWe can usually find a noun in space
\nExcept when the noun is an idea
\nLike hope or peace or courage or fear<\/p>\n

VERSE 2:
\nAn ADJECTIVE\u2019s a word that describes a noun
\nLoud and soft are adjectives for sound
\nIn Music, short sounds are called Staccato
\nTo describe smooth sounds, use the adjective Legato<\/p>\n

CHORUS:
\nWords, words, we love words
\nWe\u2019re expanding our Vocabulary
\nWords, words, we love words
\nWe really love to read the Dictionary
\nWords, words, it\u2019s really not scary
\nIf you ask us how we like it we say VERY VERY much<\/p>\n

VERSE 3:
\nA VERB is an action, something we do
\nOr a state of being, like how are you?
\nWhen we define a verb, we use the word to
\nLike believe means to accept something as true<\/p>\n

VERSE 4:
\nTo describe a verb, use an ADVERB, please
\nQuickly, slowly, you can move with ease
\nCan\u2019t think of an adverb? Give this a try
\nJust take an adjective and add -ly<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
