MY CLASSMATES

My classmates
Theresa Trot had a snot
Hanging from her nose
She sniffs and snorts and swallows
But Theresa never blows.

Now it’s run down past her lips
And settled on her chin
Her teeth look really shiny
When Theresa starts to grin.

She sits next to Janice McManus
Who`s bouncing around on one shoe
It looks quite a feat as she hops to her seat
As she`s stepped on a smelly dog poo.

Barbara Bell said oh what’s that smell?
As she covers her nose with her hand
And Ryan O`Brien says schools not worth trying 
As his dads in a rock and roll band.

Wee Ellie Kelly she`s got a sore belly
She`s had crisps and chocolate for lunch
They were to last her till Friday but to keep her desk tidy
She sat down and ate the whole bunch.

Big Billy Tilley who`s feeling quite silly
With trousers half way up his shin
And Riley McSmiley who`s gangly and Wiley
He always wears a big grin.

There`s wee Andy Davy who’s dads in the navy
He sets every month out to sea
And a wee boy called Sonny who really looks funny
As he buzzes about like a bee.

And young Jake McPake who had a pet snake
He brought it to school once before
We hid in the back as it slid out it`s sack 
And the teacher ran right out the door.

Then there`s Mary McLairy who thinks she’s a fairy
She hums and she whistles and sings
She makes a wee wish and her wand goes swish swish
And she flies on her shiny new wings.

And wee Margaret McVitie who`s hands are all sticky
From pastries and candy and cakes
She crams too much in now it`s all on her chin
And her tie is all covered in flakes.

There`s Willie McFee who can climb any tree
And he hangs from his feet like a monkey
And wee Mickey Mare who`s got really nice hair
And the girls all think he`s quite hunky.

Then wee Harry Hanson who walks like he’s dancing
He shuffles and glides in his shoes
And wee Sarah Stark she`s so scared of the dark
She still goes to the toilet in two`s.

Then young Nigel Night who insists that he`s right
When everyone knows that he`s wrong
And wee Bernie Brammer who talks with a stammer
But he says it just perfect in song.

Wee Jimmy Holder who thinks he a soldier
He marches and salutes everyone
He sits next to Molly who plays with her dolly
And sometimes he joins in for fun.

And right up the back there`s Miss Construed
She sits next to Miss Understood
They`re always causing a commotion
But both of them think they`re quite good.

Then there’s Miss Ellaneous
She wanders about everywhere
She sits next to Miss Directed
Who`s always hiding her chair.

And Miss Represented she sits on her own
She says that we don’t understand
But she`s moving real soon to the front of the room
Where Miss Guided can give her a hand.

And I`m Fiona Fiddle I sit right in the middle
I fidget and fuss as a rule
And these are my friends who sit in my class
And I think it`s the best in the school.
