Hooray For Tom

Will it really help me to learn
About Frederick the Great and when Rome burned
I wish they'd skip over me
When it's my turn
All this useless information
So I can talk way above my station
And I lost when I couldn't spell congratulations
Hooray, hooray for Tom
He won the spelling bee
Spelled the difficult words so right
And now he's on TV
Hooray, hooray for Tom
He's up there for all to see
And I hope some day they'll say hooray for me
Teach me long division
So I can figure out baseball stats
Batting average, fielding percentage and all that I learn more at home, okay
Learned how to scrap, learned some funny things to say
And I lost when I spelled ban-an-ana
Hooray, hooray for Tom
He won the spelling bee
Spelled the difficult words so right
And now he's on TV
Hooray, hooray for Tom
He's up there for all to see
And I hope some day they'll say hooray for me
Hooray, hooray for Tom
He won the spelling bee
Spelled the difficult words so right
And now he's on TV
Hooray, hooray for Tom
He's up there for all to see
And I hope some day they'll say hooray
Hope some day they'll say hooray
Well I hope some day they'll say hooray for me for me
