"Speaking Lessons" lyrics and music by Benjamin Newman / G - D - / C - D - / G - C - / D - - G / Have useful tool. Is baby smart rock. Help us listen. Help us talk. Need more time listen. Smart rock, more words guess. Answer now, answer bad. Later, more best. I suppose this is what I get for being right. I knew all along this would be a strange night. You, set up a perimeter! You, dig us up some drink! As for me, I'm gonna need a little time to think. When I took this mission, what did I think I'd have to do? I came here to find answers, I found something strange and new! Report back to the council: We'll be in the field all week -- We came here to get answers... let's teach these creatures how to speak! If want teach us speakings, together, play game: Choose things, choose thinkings, make hand shape, say name. We can talk and you can talk, but how much do we really know? You want go speak council? Speak... council? Yes, go! Yrisa, this is sunstroke! We're the bravest of the scouts! Teaching kinderschool's not what I thought this mission was about! Our clan's safety is our mission, and that safety may depend On not making them our foes, so we had better make them friends! Well, considering the way that our new friends are talking now, Will those seedpod-counting bureaucrats in council dare allow Any real negotiation? Not until they've learned to talk! So go and put more words into their magic talking rock! For teach us more speakings, together, go walk Describe what you do, what you see -- just keep talk! Smart rock is good learning, have words almost now. Oh, greet you, Yrisa, what happen -- hey, ow! Day sentry saw strange bird drop bundle from sky! Is strange bird your thing? What in bundle, and why?! Please be no anger, think better, not worse -- In bundle is new smart rock, very smarter than first! Give moment take smart rock out bundle, tell wake, Pour in word knowings -- [mumble], fix mistake -- Word knowings all soaked in, put ear tool in ear... Now tell me, is that better? When I speak, what do you hear?
