The purpose of this speech is to entertain an audience, most likely a young audience. This is highlighted to the reader due to the diction used. The non complex language makes it easier for a younger audience to understand and therefore entices the audience. In addition the rhyming throughout the text adds an interesting concept to the play which makes the viewer more gripped to each line. Also the short sentences means that the viewer of the show won't get bored by a long monologue and also quickens up the pace of the play so that the target audience of young people won't get bored. The features that make the text spoken is the mode of the text. It is clearly a conversation between two people due to the questions and also the repetition of some words portrays they are in the process of a song. Also the fillers make it a speech as one generally doesn't use fillers when writing.
