KRISTINE (speaks) AL (sings)
11
See, I really couldn't sing. I could never really sing. What I couldn't do was Sing!
12
I have trouble with a note.
13
It goes all around my throat.
14
It's a terrifying thing.
15
See, I really couldn't hear which note was lower or was higher.
16
Which is why I disappear when someone says, "Let's start a choir."
17
Hey, when I begin to shriek.
18
It's a cross between a squeak.
19
And a quiver or a moan.
20
It's a little like a croak.
21
Or the record player broke.
22
What it doesn't have is tone.
23
Oh, I know you're thinking what a crazy ding-a-ling,
24
But what I really couldn't sing.
25
I could never really sing.
26
What I couldn't do was sing!

40
It really blows my mind.
41
AL (speaks)
42
She gets depressed.

KRISTINE (speaks) AL (sings)
44
But what I lack in pitch I sure make up in power!
45
And all my friends say I am perfect for the

shower.

KRISTINE (speaks) AL (sings)
49
Still I'm terrific at a dance.
50
Guys are comin' in their pants.
51
I'm a birdie on the wing.
52
But when I begin to chirp.
53
They say, "Who's the little twerp
54
Goin' 'Pong' instead a 'Ping' "

And when Christmas comes and all my friends go
