Painting the Trash Cans

Senior year, student government I couldn’t do anything right When told to paint the trash cans Our class colors, blue and white I added my own touch to the job Always doing too much Scrawled my name on all the bins Hoping to gain more fame Some thought I was uncool, to Expose myself to the whole school All I was supposed to do Was to paint the trash cans blue The next year they were painted red I was forgotten like I were dead
