Luyện nghe bài hát English is Cuh-ray-zee

English is the most widely spoken language in the of the planet.
One out of every seven beings can speak or read it.
Half the world's books, 3/4 of the mail are in English.
It has the largest vocabulary, two million words,
And a noble of literature. But face it:

Hammers ham, grocers don't groce. Haberdashers don't haberdash.
is cuh-ray-zee!

If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn't the of booth be beeth?

is cuh-ray-zee!

How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the
When a wise man and a wise guy are very
To overlook something and to something are very different,
But quite a lot and a few are the same.
How can the be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?

You have to marvel at the lunacy of a language in which your house can burn
While it is up. You fill out a form by filling it in.
In which alarm clock goes off by going on.
If pro is the opposite of con, what is the of progress?

Well, English was by people, not computers
And reflects the creativity of the race.
So why when the stars are out, they're visible,
But when the are out, they're invisible.
When I up my watch I start it, but when I wind up this rap,
I end it. is cuh-ray-zee!
