Examination Blues
I know I am clever and I am not thick
but final exams tend to make me feel sick.
I’m sure they’re a way to ensure I see
that I’m not as bright as I’m meant to be.
I’ve attended my classes and learned all I could
revised and revised as much as I should.
so why am I feeling that I’ll never know
all of the answers exams at me throw.
Being quite happy is normally my way
but sitting exams makes me panic each day.
I’ve done my revision so how can I lose
but still find I suffer from pre exam blues
I sure I’ll get A’s in all that I do
except for the F’s and the D’s in a few.
but maybe ‘m thick, oh I don’t really know,
(should I stay at home and not bother to go).
Time is the answer when all’s said and done,
it then may be worth butterflies in my tum
for if I do well it will be worth all the pain
for then I can study for more tests again!
