You can kind of make it fit the same tune at a stretch, the kids don't seem to care.

That said we're British so the latter portion doesn't rhyme anyway (zed).

But the rhyming and rhythm help with memory. If you take that away, what was the purpose of the song?

Rhyming also helps a lot with early literacy. So, again, why take away the parts that rhyme?

Well I don't know, maybe it'll prove to be disastrous for an entire generation. But they seem to be grasping it just fine.

It's also zed in some other languages, but so that it rhymes with "that's the letters of the alphabet".

I am misinterpreted. I make my text more clear so that I am less likely to get misinterpreted by others.

This is a bad thing somehow.

I did not know it was reddit etiquette to notify subthreads when I edit comments. I will do so in the future.
