Abbreviation

A song parody of Anticipation by Carly Simon

Play the video at the end of the story and sing along!

We can never know, acronyms are so dumb
But we rack our brains anyway
And I wonder if I’ll suss it out somehow
Or just wasting time I really should have saved

Abbreviation
Abbreviation
It makes me insane
It’s oh so frustratin’

And I tell you how easy spelling can be to do
And how right the words feel spelled fully
But I, I just curse those words you shrunk so slight
When I was thinking’ about your word amputee

Abbreviation
Abbreviation
It makes me insane
It’s oh so frustratin’

And tomorrow there’ll be another cipher
I’m no prophet, and I don’t like mayonnaise
So I’ll try to see into your mind right now
And quote Shakespeare ‘cause these are the weirdest days
These are the weirdest day
