1 and 3
We used to wonder why we should do writing.
It used to seem writing could be a bore
But writing is usually a big part of lessons.
Why?

2 and 4
That is a question to which we've the answer
And it's the answer we've known all along.
We must not be tempted to try to forget it.
True!

CHORUS
Written work shows what we know
And if we've listened.
Written work shows what we know
And if we've listened,
If we've listened.

Repeat from the beginning, singing the Chorus twice.
