Just Another School Day
My alarm clock is buzzing.
 I slam on the off,
 And drag myself out of bed.
 I dress in a daze,
 And catch the bus,
 After grabbing a granola bar.
 My first class is history,
 It's so very boring.
 The first bell rings,
 And I'm wide awake.
 I jump onto the train of people,
 And slowly move down the hall.
 I hop off the train,
 And fight with my locker.
 Then the train once again,
 It's cramped on there!
 Lunch time finally roles around.
 The cafeteria is a zoo,
 And go figure - it's beef stew.
 The afternoon drags by slowly,
 And kids get in a fight.
 Band is loud and the teacher is mad,
 Only an hour to the end of the day.
 Get on the train, 
 For one more trip to the locker.
 I grab my books,
 And the final bell rings.
 The students are crazy,
 They try to be first out the doors.
 I climb on the bus,
 And the seniors peel out.
 I go to the gym,
 Must practice for sports.
 It takes forever,
 Can't I just go home?
 I get home around six, 
 And homework's done fast.
 I jump into bed,
 How I wish sleep would last.
 But it's only 9 hours,
 And tomorrow is here.
 Then I'm onto the bus,
 To repeat it again.
