Words, Words, Words
[EMILY, spoken]You see, it's called a Projective Test
And it reveals the subject to the tester
By means of words...
[EMILY]
Words, Words, Words
Words are the key
I talk to you! You talk to me!
Oh, oh, oh, I'll say a word
Then when it's said
You say the first word
That comes into your head

That's where our kids are taught
And we always teach 'em the golden rule
"Do unto others and don't get caught!"

And if they do get caught
We always teach 'em to talk their way out of it
Just by usin'...
