Listen To Conversation
When she told me to
Listen to conversation
I rolled my hazel eyes
When she told me to
Be nice to the friendless
I began to bring them home
When she told me to
Pay attention to my teachers
I knew she had not met some
When she told me to
Tell the truth, I did
Until the belt.
After the belt,
truth is out the window
