Back To School

Oh no I'm back at school
Now I can't jump in the pool

More teachers Dirty looks
More writing in our books

What if I fail?
Will my parents get some mail?

Now my mum and dad have to work
Now I can go home and lurk

What if my parents come home?
Am I really alone?

Mum caught me and so did dad
Oh no this is really bad
We'll actually I like school after all
