Alphabet Lost and Found - They Might Be Giants (For Kids)

作词：John Flansburgh/John Linnell

作曲：John Flansburgh/John Linnell

On this fateful day in the history of whenever

An epidemic of missing letters has swept the land

Whatever the cause

For the sake of future generations

In the limited time we have been permitted

These stories must be told

There was an apple that lost his 'a'

There was a zebra that lost his 'z'

There was a chauffeur that left

His 'auffer' on the dashboard

Of the car that lost its 'r'

Well the car had lost its 'r' in a pothole

On a street that lost its 'e'

When the garbage collector with a missing 'ector'

Swept it up

With a broom that lost its 'oom'

Where they gonna go without their letters

How could they survive without their letters

Where they gonna go to find their letters

They gonna have to get together-

At the alphabet lost and found

At the alphabet lost and found

There was a school that lost its 'cool'

When they tired to ring the bell that had no 'l'

With all the letters gone

The spelling bee was canceled

Science teachers had their hands full

English classes could not be complete

Where they gonna go without their letters

How could they survive without their letters

Where they gonna go to find their letters

They gonna have to get together

Where they gonna go without their letters

How could they survive without their letters

Where they gonna go to find their letters

They gonna have to get together

Crowds of people animals

And incomplete words have been seen

At a previously unknown place

To be referred to as

The alphabet lost and found

At the alphabet lost and found

At the alphabet lost and found

At the alphabet lost and found

At the alphabet lost and found

At the alphabet lost and found
