Mam im really sorry

I was bad in maths today

I didn't do my sums right

And threw Sophie's work away

Miss said I was stupid

But I tell you that ain't true

Im not trying to be stupid Mam

I want to be good just like you

Its hard living up to my sisters

Its hard being as clever as them

Sometimes I go out at nightime

And cry for ages in my den

I do try at Maths Mam

Im not just being dumb

Please dont get angry

Because im a dissapointment to my mum
