Homework

Homework, hon 
says my mom
all day all night 
all week long

Science,
Geography,
two hours gone.

Math,
history,
four hours gone.

Tick-tock, tick-tock
round and round the clock.

Homework, hon
says my mom
all day all night
all week long.

English,
chemistry,
six hours gone.

Spelling,
astronomy,
eight hours gone.

Tick-tock, tick-tock
round and round the clock.

Homework, hon
says my mom
all day all night
all week long.

Sunday, Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, 
Saturday too.

All day all night
all week all month
all year long.

Homework, hon
says my mom.
