G Rammer

Used to be the question mark On top of a full stop Until needed inverted commas To require an explanation mark To highlight an apostrophe So as to prove A firm grip on grammar All present and correct every punctuation point, apostrophe, inverted comma, explanation mark, full stop and question mark A+ Gold star Teacher's pet Front of class 2nd period maths So bring out your times table + , × , ÷, - D- Must try harder Teacher's worst nightmare Back of class Why am i not good at everything I am not like other's allowed to posess limitations I have pushy parents and mummy and daddy sure as hell won't be happy or best pleased And worst of all if not already feeling bad enough i have to be the one to tell them Trying one's best that results in failure is simply not good enough or a viable excuse As in family terms D stands for disappointment C , contempt B , borderline A+ , acceptable But only if it's nothing less than 99 out of a 100
