You are a boy
Life's not a toy
To be played with
To sashay with

Don't be a fool
Just go to school
Follow the rules
And use the tools

Get your school books
Go to a nook
Don't be a crook
Who should not have took

What was not yours
The rain it pours
You quit at four
Walked out the door.

The baby's talking,
Now he's walking,
Don't stand there gawking!

Just because 
You gave up
Doesn't mean that
He should too

To him all of this
Is still fairly new.

Not doing school work
Has no perks,
Don't be a jerk,
And get to work.
