School as a popularity contest: Walking down the hallway with the bag slung over your shoulder Wondering why it is that no one seems to bother They all go about their business as if you were not there Nimble chatter among the packs as they begin to gather You walk into the classroom and pick a nice chair Everyone else seems to be annonyed with you being here The intermittent silences broken by some more intermittent glares Even the teacher looks at you as if your hair is on fire Actually, your hair is on fire, your hair is on fire Better run outside quick before you set off the sprinklers Because you don't want to get people wet and look like a loser At least if you're bald you might still be popular |
