My Dog Ate My Homework

My dog ate my homework. Really he did!
‘Cause he's a bad dog and I'm a good kid!
I really love math class and my teacher's a whiz
It's truly not my fault that I flunk every quiz.
‘Cause the new math is funny. It's really a bore.
Since when did a seven become the new four?

But back to my homework ‘cause that’s where I started
It all had begun when my crazy dog farted.
So I ran from the room as though I’d been banished
And when I returned, my homework had vanished!

I did all the problems, really I did!
Remember I told you that I’m a good kid?
So that is my story and I’m sticking to it.
What bright kid like me would want to go through it?
I know that my story is really a wowzer
But just ask my dog and his name is Bowser
