I Am Not Giving You Hints In The Post Title; Nice Try

I present to you today a seemingly simple task. Think back to the Dr. Seuss book 'Green Eggs And Ham'. I'm pretty sure you read it, or had it read to you, at some point; it's Seuss' best selling book. The book, just in case you weren't aware, was created using only 50 different words. Seuss and his publisher, Random House co-founder Bennett Cerf, had $50 riding on a bet that said Seuss couldn't do it.

Cerf never did pay up.

In any case, today, your seemingly simple task is to think back to Green Eggs And Ham, and name those 50 words within 5 minutes. And remember, you're all but gifted the first four.

Why only seemingly simple? I got only 37 of them.
