FOCUS!

In class, licensed to thrill because all us beastie students are on iPad now...

But it's oh so hard to FOCUS

when ADHD gets in the way!

 

Hit it, temptations!  (It's your girl talkin')

 

and now Candy Crush and Facebook beckon...

and now Candy Crush and Facebook beckon...

 

Science teacher wants me to pay attention to soil,

French teacher wants me to pensee en Francais,

English teacher wants me to battle down some Shakespeare ...

it'll take a lot of will to work this out.

 

Now, I'm in ASAP (Academic Success Afterschool Program),

because I didn't put electronic brakes on my surfing tendencies

Hmm, I don't want to be stupid

Don't need to always be entertained... (Nevermind, Kurt)

I do NOT smell like Teen Spirit (except after sports practice...

and I missed state because of ASAP!)

 

The world goes on if I don't FB,

and I don't need high score on CC.

 

The world goes on if I don't FB,

and I don't need high score on CC.

 

What do I care about most? 

LEARNING!

I want to level up to college.

So, teacher,

I promise to pay attention

and do my best to FOCUS on you,

because when it comes quiz time

you won't care how well I mixed up the candies...
