Why Don't You Notice?


teacher sits at desk

doesn't notice Jim crying

why don't you notice

 

teacher sits at desk

doesn't notice Jane fighting

why don't you notice

 

teaher sits at desk

checking phone every second

why don't you notice

 

teacher sits at desk

doesn't notice Bill texting

about his "friend" Jill

 

teacher sitting there

why don't you notice, teacher

why don't you notice?
