I tripped twice this morning
On the same freaking stair
To my first class of the day
And old gum was on my chair.
It hadn't been a great day
And the bell hadn't even rung
When I noticed that my fly was down
And drank coffee that burnt my tongue.
In English I dropped my pencil
And bent over to pick it up
But I hit my head sitting up again
And yipped like a frightened pup.
The worst part about that
Is I kind of really like this guy Bert
Who sits right in front of me
But he laughed and that was what hurt.
At lunchtime I was optimistic
Because what could go wrong
But I'll tell you that bananas are bad
And the pain in my butt is strong.
Math oh God help me please
There was a chill down my spine
When I realized we'd had homework
And I hadn't even looked at mine.
Well the day finally ended
I cannot say if I was saved by the bell
As I still had to walk on home
But I was out of this personal hell.
I got home without accident
But mother wanted to know
How I got my two black eyes
When outside it started to snow.
It was really nice out there
And I curled up on my bed
Icepack in one hand and tea in the other
As I nursed the bump on my head.
Not so bad at all really
I said wrapped in sweater and hood
Warm enough to convince me that
Well I've got it pretty good.
