Chicago School's Cool

I really like school
  In Chicago, it's cool

Boot the computer
  Log into Zoom
Then do whatever
  I want in my room

No shoes on my feet
  as I think up a tweet
If I'm oversexed
  I fire off racy texts

Yes, Ma'am, homework's done
  It really was fun ~
Every answer's online
  It's easy to shine
  
Time for lunch break
  A couple hours I'll take
To hijack two cars
  And then hit the bars

I really like school
  In Chicago it's cool

They'd be back if it weren't for the CTU, Chicago Teachers' Union. They are the villains of the 21st century, methinks... Along with Randi Whine-garden, as I call her. :)

If school in Chicago is really like this, then they must not have a problem with absenteeism. Entertaining write.

Ha, ha! You'd be right if the kids knew how to log on and log into Zoom. Oy, such a city we got! ~ gw

Gershon, you have really hit the nail on the head here! I'm sure this is true of many parts of the southside with the pitiful attempt at schooling through the screen. Hey, school is cool!

South Side, West Side, and parts of the North Side in Chicago as well. ~ Carr Jack
