helen yells...but what she says, can't tell
but she's vocal when her mood explodes
though, when down...she'll barely make a sound
she will remain in quite a silent mode
water spittin'...and her hand, its hittin'
at this time, the die was cast
what surprise, here..."wa-wa", she recited
seemed to catch on pretty fast

helen...helen squeals
finally found a way to relate the way she feels
helen...helen squeals
and forever she will jabber away

i used tools...to get this lassie schooled
though she could not hear a sound
she would ram...and give the doors a slam
throw herself down to the ground
wouldn't mind...and treated me unkind
till she found i was a friend
'neath the spout...she got it figured out
and now she won't be bad again

helen...helen squeals
finally found a way to relate the way she feels
helen...helen squeals
and forever she will jabber away

and in time...she understood just fine
cause a language, she had found
(language, she had found)
learned to trust...and not to make a fuss
lord, she used to come unwound
(really came unwound)
learned one day...a simple word to say
it came upon her like a flash
(it was like a flash)
now, she's signin'...and she's doin' fine
yeah, she's really made a splash

helen...helen squeals
finally found a way to relate the way she feels
helen...helen squeals
and forever she will jabber away

say "wa-wa"
