(this is how I got kicked out of military school. hope you injoy!)
I wasn't a bad kid but dad didn't find me cool
next thing you know I was in military school
Mom sent care packages cookies and mellow yellow
then they were stole in front of me by a senior fellew
with my care box empty it made me sad
without my snacks I got really mad!
so with the next delivery I devized a plan
when nobody was looking I'd piss in the can
I knew that my plan was bold
and waited a day for the can to get cold
he came, he stole, he drank, oh the look in his eyes
I sat there and smiled just to pat-tro-nize
my friends were outside laughing and having a ball
as the senior ran out he puked down the hall
he fummbled around in his vomit on the floor
next thing you know he slid out the door
then I laughed so hard felt the pain in my sternum
and thought to myself "that's gonna learn em!"

It’s funny now
To know the truth
That all you care about is you
Your squinty eyes and sneaky smile
You had a plan all the while
Pretend to care
Say some words
And then not care
Who you hurt
Cause your plan is #1
All others be damned
Your having fun
You pile it on
Cause I can take it
Curse my name
And try to break me
But evil does
As evil see’s
Wait for my plan
It’s a doozy
