Marshmallow Allow Allow Eh Eh Eh

There's been a disturbing trend of late in Marshmallowland.

I've been The Stumblance Upon of the occurrence... of THIS.

*falls over* GOOD GOD!!! THE BLASPHEMY!!!

Even Dictionary.com supports me on this - I really thought you lot would know by now. Tsk tsk tsk.

And with that, I lay down the law with you people. It's been a while since the last number, anyway (possibly the only time that C&E was completely inundated with traffic!). What started off with a pet peeve about how people seem to be spelling MY NAME became an ode to the deteriorayshun of engrish. It works best if you let the audio file load first, hit play, and read the lyrics as you go. (I'm hoping Rihanna and her crew don't mind my... err... 'modifications'.)

It's about 4 and a half minutes long, done in one take, without any warming up, and for half of the track I'm holding in a sneeze. Oh, and you might need to turn the volume up, since I don't exactly have a recording studio convenient in my house.

By the way, this is not directed at any one person who has ever made a spelling mistake. It's directed at ALL of you. MWAHAHHAHA!

...

I'm kidding. Enjoy.

DON'T PUT AN E IN MARSHMALLOW

---

Verse 1
It breaks my heart
To see writing fall apart
When words were once supreme
And made sense near and far
I've had to tolerate
People not writing great
I must forgive you now
Although I don't know how

Because...!

Chorus
When you write words you don't write it better
If you miss out every second letter
I say you're such a freaking laugh
By not punctuating your paragraphs
Even though your grammar's gone forever
You and I can still stay together
But please don't put an e in Marshmallow
Just don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh eh

Verse 2
Using hard vocab
Doesn't mean spelling bad
Nor forgetting apostrophes
For infinity
When stories tear to shreds
When words mess up your head
Since noone understands
What on earth they read

Because...!

Chorus
When you write words you don't write it better
If you miss out every second letter
I say you're such a freaking laugh
By not punctuating your paragraphs
Even though your grammar's gone forever
You and I can still stay together
But please don't put an e in Marshmallow
Just don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh eh

Bridge
You can look up spelling sites
It's okay to learn to write
Properly...
I can take the odd typo
But I draw the line at Marshmallow

Because...!

Chorus
When you write words you don't write it better
If you miss out every second letter
I say you're such a freaking laugh
By not punctuating your paragraphs
Even though your grammar's gone forever
You and I can still stay together
But please don't put an e in Marshmallow
Just don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh
Don't put an e in Marshmallow - Allow Allow eh eh eh eh eh

It's spelling
Oooooooooooh it's spelling
Spell my name properly
Properly
It's spelling
Oooooooooooh it's spelling
Spell my name properly
Properly
Just spell my name
Just spell my name
Without an e
