Lyrics

Ok, They look just alike   but no man,they ain't the same   when they dont mean the same thing   Homographs is the name   2 words that..   Look just alike (Homographs) [3x]   But they dont mean the same thing   (Repeat)   Homographs are   2 words that look the same.   2 words that are spelled the same.   But they are not the same.   Might not even sound the same.   Homographs. Let me help you break down this thing..   Look,   "Bear"....like Winnie The Pooh,But Bear also means "To carry" too   "Blue"...We all know that is a color,true.   But when you are sad,hey blue can be a feeling too   Right? (Okay i get it, Like right and write?) Wrong!   Both words must be spelled alike like type an type   "a sort" is one type of type,the other type is when you use a keyboard to write   Skip. Skip! Like when you're jumping   The other Skip is when you miss out on something   Here we go. another one is bow and bow   Homographs,If you didn't know,now you know   Hey!   Ok, They look just alike   but no man,they ain't the same   when they dont mean the same thing   Homographs is the name   2 words that..   Look just alike (Homographs) [3x]   But they dont mean the same thing   (Repeat)
