To everything, (there, their, they're)
"There's" a correct term, (there, their, they're)
One right word: each... situation in our grammar

First, "there" is a place -- A place that's not "here";[1]
Belongs: someone else? That's where we use "their";
And "they're": a contraction that stands for "they are"
"Contraction": we put two words together

To everything, (there, their, they're)
"There's" a correct term, (there, their, they're)
One right word: each... situation, so don't stammer

If you're sympathizing: "Now, now, dear, there, there";
Remember that "theirs" belongs to an "heir";[2]
Apostrophe? Two words: "They are" turns to "they're";
Mnemonics:[3] help, phonics remember!

To everything, (there, their, they're)
"There's" a correct term, (there, their, they're)
One right word: each... situation; hear my clamor

I think now "you're" there! -- Yes! -- "there is" is "there's"
Apostrophe:[5] one letter gone, as in "where's"
Each such contraction: "a" missing, or "i"
So, when you see... punctuation, "your" mind knows why!

To everything, (you're, your, yore)
"There's" a correct term, (you're, your, yore)
One right word: each... situation; "you're" no scammer

Hello, there! There are... some great writers here
Since days of "yore" ("old") ... ore: gold, we hold dear[4]
Let's stop right there - that resting place there
There! They're there: their... connotations, there forever

To ev'rything, (there, their, they're)
"There's" a correct term, (there, their, they're)
One right word: use it right, you'll... me, enamor
(repeat chorus and fade)



*OS lyrics were adapted from The Book of Ecclesiastes, 3:1-8, and set to music by Pete Seeger.
[1]"There" contains the word "here" -- (T)here -- so "here and there" are places.
[2]"Their" and "theirs" contain the word "heir" -- (T)heir -- someone who inherits something, at which point, it's "their" stuff; it is "theirs".
[3]"Mnemonic" -- a trick to help remember something, such as the two previous tricks and the next one, all of which, by the way, I made up just for this song. Having a pea-brain, the Turtle needs to concoct stuff like that constantly in order to remember anything, such as where in the mall he parked his car.
[4]"Yore" contains the word "ore", which is stuff that's been in the earth since times long ago, or days of "yore"; and might be "gold", which contains "old".
