The Way Everyone Feels About Homework

Oh homework I hate you,

You make me so mad!

You’re worse than mom’s meatloaf-

And that’s pretty bad.

I’d rather be stung

By a million bees

Or eat all my veggies-

Including the peas!

I’d rather be swallowed

By a twenty foot snake

Than do you oh homework,

Where happiness breaks.

Oh homework I hate you,

You make me so mad!

If you burst into flames,

Who wouldn’t be glad?

I train dogs to eat you

I bet everyone does,

Because you, oh homework

Are nothing to love.

I’d tear you to shreds,

Throw you into the grill

If only I had a chance

To have that kind of thrill

And yet there are some

That still hand you out

And they are the teachers

The kids want them out!
