Spring's In the Air
swap quatrain
When spring's in the air, sub teachers may cringe;
attention to lessons way off the fringe.
Some minds fixed on "love"; girls fixing their hair.
Sub teachers "may" cringe when spring's in the air.
Makes vice-principals cry long about May
clown acts are common, at least much horseplay.
When your pupils fail to see eye to eye,
long about May makes vice-principals cry.
English lit class buzzin', Keats' Grecian Urn;
write down anything you think you might learn.
Cheap pens sold for a dollar a dozen;
Keats' Grecian Urn, English lit class buzzin'.
Springs in the air, subsitute caught a few.
Class clown showed some special tricks he could do.
Pens flying all around with hidden flair;
substitute caught a few springs in the air.
