DEAR CLASS OF 1987


RUSTY VANN CAMP,
  WHY HIS NAME I'VE NEVER FORGOT,
POPULAR BY NO MEANS,
  BUT I REMEMBER HE WAS PICKED ON A LOT,
I TRIED TO BE A FRIEND,
  TO THOSE WHO HAD NOT MANY,
MOST OF YOU JUST PASSED HIM BY,
  NOT THINKING HE TOO HAD FEELINGS,
I'LL NEVER FORGOT THAT MORNING,
  WHEN THE HOMEROOM CLASS BELL RANG,
WE WERE ALL IN OUR ASSIGNED SEATS,
  MRS. KRAFT WAS PREPARING TO TEACH,
SHE WAS INTERRUPTED,
  CAUSE THE PRINCIPAL HAD AN ANNOUNCEMENT,
RUSTY WOULDN'T BE HERE TODAY,
  BECAUSE HE 'D HAD AN ACCIDENT,
WE HAD A FEW MOMENTS OF SILENCE,
  THOUGH NOT MANY DID IT SEEM TO BOTHER,
BUT I STILL HAVE THE NEWSPAPER CLIPPINGS,
  WHERE HE HAD FLIPPED HIS VOLKSWAGON,
DEAR CLASS OF 1987,
  HAVE WE ALL GROWN UP JUST A LITTLE,
AND DO YOU EVER REGRET THE TIMES,
  YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE BETTER THAN ANOTHER.
