F^Bbrustration and torment ^Ftore him inside Then he ^Cfell to the gro^Gmund and he cr^Cied and he cr^Gmied. But then ^Deducation ^Csaved the day. ^AmHe learned to speak and ^Gcommunicate ^DEducation ^Csaved the day. ^AmHe thanked God for the ^Gfriends he made.

^BbThank the day when that ^Fprimitive man Learned to ^Ctalk with his brothers And ^Gmlive off the land. ^BbHe left his cave and he ^Fmoved far away And he ^Clived with his friends in a house ^Gmthat they'd made He ^Bblearned to think and to ^Fwork with his brain And he ^Castounded his friends with all the ^Gmknowledge he gained He ^Bbwrote it down on a ^Frock that he found And he ^Cshowed all his ^Gmfriends and they ^Cpassed it ^Gmaround
