CHIP
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

MS. PERETTI
But it's a very nice, very, very nice

MS. PERETTI, CHIP
Very, very nice
Very nice
Beginning!

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Our winner here last year, Chip Tolentino.

LOGAINNE (spoken)
Ms. Peretti!

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
And our youngest competitor, Logainne Schwartzandgrubenierre.

LEAF
At the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Game - Bee
I'll stand when they announce my name

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Leaf Coneybear

LEAF
And try and keep from shaking

LOGAINNE
Alas
His shaking will not pass

ALL
'Cause it's a very big, very fraught
Simple but it's not
It's a very big undertaking

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Returning from last year's tragic setback, William Barfee!

WILLIAM (spoken)
It's pronounced Barfee
