I Speak Six Languages Lyrics - 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee Soundtrack

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Miss Park speaks five languages.

MARCY (spoken)
No I don’t.

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Don’t you?

MARCY (spoken)
No.
(sung) I Speak Six Languages

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Oh, six.

MARCY
Every language easy
Easy as the recipe for making Jell-O
I Speak Six Languages
And I can say hello
In at least seven more

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
She’s also a champion rugby player.

MARCY
To excel in athletics is not difficult if one has the temperament
Apparently
I have the temperament
Yes I score some goals
So unfazed am I
As my life Unscrolls
Unamazed am I
I don’t like to brag
And I won’t ‘cause I don’t have to
But

I Speak Six Languages
All-American in hockey
And anything I do
I do without getting sore
I Speak Six Languages
And I like the theme from Rocky
Though I play Mozart more

GIRLS
Oooooooah

MARCY (GIRLS)
I achieve my goals (Aaaaah)
So unfazed am I
As my life unscrolls (Aaaaah)
Unamazed am I
Winning is a job (Winning is a job)
And I get no real enjoyment (And she gets no real enjoyment)
But

MARCY [GIRLS]
Je peux parler six langues [Aaaaah]
Carda idio maes simple [Oooooh]
Jerro oh yo no reshipe no yesashesades [Sashades]
Ja gavaru shetz yatzukim [Yatzukim]
V'ani yodat shalom [Yodat shalom]

MARCY, GIRLS
Im noch mindesterns sieben mehr

MARCY
I Speak Six Languages
I am sick and tired
Of always being the best
And the brightest
At every mass
Six lousy languages
And for my height I’m the lightest
Of the girls in my class

GIRLS
She knows six languages

MARCY (spoken) [GIRLS] (sung)
That’s 1[She knows], 2[She knows],
3[She knows], 4[She knows], 5[She knows]

ALL
Six!
