Education is like cake, very easy to make.
Sadly not to bake.
To do math you need a brain.
So your marks don’t fall like icy rain.
To soar at English you will need…
A bit of intellectual speed.
Passing History… Well that’s a mystery…
Science, well that is easy. In fact, it’s pretty breezy…
However you won’t pass…
If you don’t pay attention in class!
Teachers will find you a bit tedious…
When all you do is sit there and attempt to look devious!
Too bad for you it doesn’t work.
Cause you have an ugly smirk…
So let’s pray for you to inherit a brain…
Just to keep us, slightly sane!
