As a Day Goes By
In the morning, I wake up and all these problems come about
All of these problems cause me to act out
Parents, parents, parents, what a pain.
They constantly nag you, such a migraine.
Teachers, teachers, teachers, what a bore!
They ramble on and on about some war.
Study, study, study, what good does it do?
If we need it, why not look it up on a “how to”.
Lectures, lectures, lectures, we already know what we’ve done wrong.
If we need to learn a lesson, why not put it in a song.
The sun slowly sets and the moon starts to rise
The thoughts I have in bed open up my eyes.
I can last thousands without my parents
A thousand milliseconds it becomes apparent
The teacher told me about a guy named Lincoln
He did many things, more than even Clinton
Studying makes it easier on you
When you have no resources, you’ll understand it in an adult’s view
A lecture seems more comprehensive than a song
Maybe you can learn why you fix the mistake that you did wrong
There is lots to learn, lots to try,
A lot of lessons as a day goes by
