Coach


Coach “Coach I want to play soccer” No you’re playing golf The scholarships will give you a better shot “Okay” I tell my mother “I want to play soccer” No, you should play golf The scholarships will give you a better shot “Okay” So I go to practice with my coach Keep your arm straight Follow to your target Keep your head down Keep your head down WHACK No, no. no. Do this, do that He shoves this information down my throat Like a handful pills “Now Dad” “What’s the next drill?”
