JAIL BREAK

3 weeks away

Comes the day

We are freed from this, the darkest prison

A time when the sweetest songs of joyful birds

Draw flocks of B.B.'s like thunder

And paint balls splatter every curb

While fireworks tear skies asunder

A time to forget what we never learned

And time to spend all we've ever earned

A time when helmet use and basic first aid

Are all we need teach

A time when one brain grows while the other shrinks

If you but know the right beach

But all in all it's just a parole

This sacred book free stroll

For in the end the school board seeks

That we return again for 36 weeks.
