Don’t send me to school

Mum I can’t go to school today I’m not very well 
Mum I can’t go to school I’m sick can’t you tell.

Mum I can’t go to school today I will go when I’m better 
Mum I can’t go to school today you have to send a letter.

Mum I can’t go to school today I have lost my P.E kit 
Mum I can’t go to school today the teacher will have a fit.

Mum I can’t go to school today don’t ask me why
Mum I can’t go to school today if I do I will only cry.

Mum I can’t go to school today I cannot tell you why
Mum I can’t go to school today please I don’t want to die.

Mum I can’t go to school today there is blood on my shirt 
You see mum every time I go to school two boys bully me and I get hurt.
