Lyrics 🎵
Chorus:
Inverted commas: you've got to use them when someone or something comments.
If it's indirect speech, you don't need them.
Only use when the speaker's speaking.
Stick them at the end and the beginning.
Don't forget to punctuate within them.
What do you mean?

Verse:
Mic Check!
Let me speak about speech and teach the key things that direct speech needs.
One: you need a new line for a new speaker,
And before they start speaking, that’s when you sneak in…
Inverted commas and a capital letter.
Then finish the direct speech and your setup,
To punctuate it, based on your sentence.
Now pay attention to the next lesson!
This is how it works when the speech comes first:
Everything apart from a full stop works.
And this is how it works when the speech comes last:
Everything goes except a comma.
What’s next? If you've finished the above!
Then close your direct speech with…umm.

Chorus:
Inverted commas: you've got to use them when someone or something comments.
If it's indirect speech, you don't need them.
Only use when the speaker's speaking.
Stick them at the end and the beginning.
Don't forget to punctuate within them.
Now do you see! x3
