Bad day

First thing today was gym class
And I was feeling grand
But then my buddy came along
And bit me on the hand.

Then after we played baseball
I could not hear at all
Because of the squeaks and yelps coming
From the hall.

After that we had our lunch
But the guys around me, what a bunch!
All of a sudden
They decided to kick and punch.

After this full day of school
Instead of feeling grand
I still felt the twinge of pain
From being bit on the hand.
