The Lyrics
i'm not bad at this blabbin'
blabbin' was tough for me
i just willed it to happen
same thing, learnin' to read
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller
i'm just mad for my teacher
taught me, so patiently
they all said, "you can't reach her"
she did magic with me
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller
she said, "you'll win if you just try
just don't get so mad if you fail
there's a lotta books you can learn by
but, you know, you gotta learn braille"
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller
education from anna
though, at times, i made her crazed
elocution from anna
struggled just to make out a phrase
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller
blabbin' was tough for me
i just willed it to happen
same thing, learnin' to read
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller
i'm just mad for my teacher
taught me, so patiently
they all said, "you can't reach her"
she did magic with me
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller
she said, "you'll win if you just try
just don't get so mad if you fail
there's a lotta books you can learn by
but, you know, you gotta learn braille"
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller
education from anna
though, at times, i made her crazed
elocution from anna
struggled just to make out a phrase
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller...(i...can't...see)
they call me helen keller

Barely remember TOS but good parody Alvin.
Powerful tribute to Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan. I particularly like the substitutes for "electrical banana."
