Who can turn a can into a cane?
Who can turn a pan into a pane?
It's not too hard to see, it's silent E
Who can turn a cub into a cube?
Who can turn a tub into a tube?
It's elementary for silent E
He took a pin and turned it into pine
He took a twin and turned him into twine
Who can turn a cap into a cape?
Who can turn a tap into a tape?
A little glob becomes a globe instantly
If you just add silent E
He turned a dam, alakazam, into a dame
But my friend Sam stayed just the same
Who can turn a man into a mane?
Who can turn a van into a vane?
A little hug becomes huge instantly
Don't add W, don't add X
And don't add Y or Z
Just add silent E
