Shut up and Teach


I get you hate this job

I get you dont want to be here

But I am here to learn

So fake like you care

 

You whine about being home

You'd rather be doing research

I'm trying to have a future

I'm needing a new teacher

 

You are unwilling to assist

You have failed at your role

Now I am paying the price

as exams start to roll

 

Please understand I am stuck with you

and you are stuck with me

I'd appreciate you putting aside your anguish

to simply shut up and teach
