Coming
He's on the road less travelled
Tripping and fumbling
Stumbling and slipping
But still he pressed on, wanting to find his way out
He's tried to close the wound many times
Stitching and weaving
Sieving and ditching
All his pains away, wanting to find his way out
He's tripping and slipping
But yet he still said, "I'm coming home."
He's staggered and haggard
But yet he still said, "I'm coming home."
He's fought the same old battles
Struggling and fencing
Lancing and grappling
Against his foes, wanting to find his way out
He seemed to be losing now
Affecting and floundering
Pondering and reflecting
The worthiness of his cause, wanting to find his way out
He's tripping and slipping
But yet he still said, "I'm coming home."
He's staggered and haggard
But yet he still said, "I'm coming home."
He's falling and crawling
Stalling and maudlin
But please wait for me
For I'm coming home
I'm coming home
School
How was school today, Timmy?
Mummy mummy today
Many things happened today
Many big things, many small things today
Many things in school today-
Really? Well, how was school work today, Timmy?
Mummy you know, at recess, when we play
Big bad Bobby came over to me today
Push me down and made me eat mud and clay
But lucky Frankie and Jimmy pulled him-
Ah, ok Timmy so what work did you do at school today?
Mummy it was quite painful just now
I wanted to cry but cannot you know
Frankie and Jimmy told me cannot show
So I never cry but I got up just-
Yes yes Timmy well did the teachers say anything about your work?
Mummy you know the english teacher
Mrs. Lau... she is such a good teacher
Gave me a sweet because I spelt 'pitcher'
She say I very clever and that-
But Timmy your grades are poor! So I want to know more about your work.
Mummy you know my friends; Jonny

They don't like play with girls they say they are icky
But I think they are nice and I want to make friends with them but they never let-
