P.O.E.T.

P.O.E.T

“Piss off early Tuesday”, work are saying,

Can’t you sit still. No. Don’t kick the mutt.

I’ve a yearning to carry on learning.

My brain won’t switch off, it carries on playing.

Some people just shrug, say, what a nut.

“Piss off early Tuesday”, work are saying.

Sneaking a peak, when no-one is looking.

Just a glance at the net with eyes half shut.

I’ve a yearning to carry on learning.

Dylan and Thomas, the joys of surfing.

Your friends are thinking, he’s some kind of nut.

“Piss off early Tuesday”, work are saying.

Grabbing books, when I think she’s not looking.

I receive my prize, a quick uppercut.

I’ve a yearning to carry on learning.

Life is a lesson, and always enlightening.

I’ll always be happy to hear a tut,

“Pis off early Tuesday”, work are saying,

But I’ve a yearning to carry on learning.
