My New School

My New School

Are you at a new school? Is it as scary as this?

 

My teacher looks like Dracula.

We learn of blood and bats.

The playground's home to toads and trolls,

lizards, newts and rats.

 

The nurse claims she can raise the dead.

The janitor's a ghost.

The cook looks like Medusa

serving toe-jam spread on toast.

 

The scary secretary

starts each morning with a, "BOO!"

The principal is Frankenstein --

a grad from Scary U.



The kids are little monsters

I really don't fit in.

I don't have fangs or pointy claws

or warts upon my chin.

 

And cause I am so different

my classmates call me dummy.

So, I'll dress up tomorrow

as a toilet paper mummy.
