Hello

H-E-L-L-O; hello-hello.
ummmm
H-E-L-L-O; hello-hello.
Well my name is Melanie.
hello-hello
I'm in the eighth grade.
hello-hello
I like to dance and shop.
hello-hello
And I'm a smart, smart Virgo.
hello-hello
ummmm
H-E-L-L-O hello-hello.

Submitter comment: Melanie says that this song is used by girls to introduce
themselves to one another. The game is sung primarily by girls on
the playground or at lunch. It gives new girls a chance to let other
girls know their grade, interest, and names.
