MR. PANCH (spoken)<br>
Will the final two spellers please step forward.<br>
<br>
MS. PERETTI<br>
Oh boy<br>
(spoken) and Oh girl<br>
(sung) Only two remain<br>
I feel joy<br>
But I also feel pain<br>
Because I know what’s coming<br>
Joy never comes for free<br>
<br>
In a moment he or she<br>
Will enter spelling history<br>
Feeling triumph and glee<br>
In this moment of perfect syzygy<br>
I hear triumphant sounds of timpani<br>
It’s my favorite moment of the bee<br>
<br>
MR. PANCH (spoken)<br>

And no one really likes me<br>
(sung) I won't come in second<br>
Hey Olive, don't think I'm distracted<br>
By your eyes and your smile and<br>
Your hairdo<br>
