Now for the official spelling bee rules
A speller (A speller)
May ask questions (May ask questions)
About the word's pronounciation or definition (Definition)
Its use in a sentence (In a sentence)
And its language of origin (Language of origin)
If you start to spell a word, you may start over
But the sequences of letters already spoken
May not be changed (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
If you misspell a word (Misspell a word)
We will ring (We will ring)
The bell
And the comfort counsellor
Mitch Mahoney (Mitch Mahoney)
Will escort you off stage
Is that understood, spellers?
Yes
Before anyone is disqualified
And before proceedings turn snide
And contestants turns nasty
I soberly confide
In the moment before the Bee
Claims its first catastrophe
I love what I see
Kids acting innocently
It's my favourite moment of the Bee
Rona's favourite moment of the Bee
