Original Broadway Cast Recording The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

Mrs. Peretti
Please spell syzygy
We have a winner!
Thank you, thank you, thank you
At the 25th annual
Putnam County spelling bee
My parents keep on telling me
Just being here is winning
Although I know it isn't so
But it's a very nice very very nice
Very very nice very nice beginning
Our winner here last year
Chip Tolentino
Mrs. Peretti
Our youngest competitor
Logan Swartzandgrubeneir
At the 25th annual
Putnam County spelling game
Bee
I'll stand when they announce my name
Leaf Coneybear
And try and keep from shaking
Alas his shaking will not pass
Cause it's a very big
Very fraught simple but it's not
It's a very big undertaking
Returning after last year's tragic setback
William Barfee
It's pronounced bar-FAY
Theres an accent aigu
Ah, I'm not sure who this girl is
Marcy Parks
Recent transfer
Winners destination
Washington D.C
Plasma T.V in a fancy hotel
Where they treat you well
All because you love to spell
We spell
It's a marvelous memory
If you win the spelling bee
Once life improves from A-Z

The minute you are crowned here
I see a trophy held by me
And when I won
Did I swell
Oh the stories I could tell
But braggarts don't do well around here
Hi I'm Olive Ostrovsky
Do you know where I check in
Shut up!
At the 25th annual
We memorize the manual
About how to spell these words
Words that require thought
Whey all think we're automatons
But that is exactly what were not
We hear the word
We breathe
We wait
Unlike idiots, we idiate
To idiate is to form an image or idea
To think
At the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
We feel no animosity
And yet our heads are spinning
We are
The slightest bit bizzare
But since the time is now holy cow
We shall make a solemn vow to
Concentrate on winning
We concentrate on winning
At the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
We speak so damn convincingly
They're nervous but they're grinning
It seems we're living out our dreams
Which is a very nice, very nice, very, very, very nice
Very nice, very nice, very, very, very nice
Very nice begining
