Battle On The Play Ground<\/p>\n
There is little time to mess around.
\nThere is a fight on the play ground.
\nNobody knows what they are fighting about.
\nIt started when Joe hit her in the snout.
\nBreak it up. Send them to the principle.
\nNow, now, let us all be sensible.
\nWhat do you mean by that?
\nTwo teachers are fighting. It\u2019s more than a scrap.
\nI doubt the principle can do much here.
\nHe won\u2019t paddle them, I fear.
\nMaybe he\u2019ll take them out to lunch.
\nI\u2019m sure they would like that a bunch.
\nBesides, I hear he often tips a beer.
\nThat won\u2019t help. That much is clear.
\nIt is a bad example to the kids.
\nThe balls she kneed was his.
\nHe was rolling on the ground in pain.
\nBut, he still managed to hit her with his cane.
\nIts gotten bloody, and they haven\u2019t stopped.
\nShe bit him with all she\u2019s got.
\nIt was with 2 teeth, maybe three.
\nHe knocked one out trying to get free.
\nMan, he really split her lip.
\nShe has blood smeared on her hip.
\nShe yelled she hope he rots.
\nThat\u2019s it, I\u2019m calling the cops.
\nToo late now. I think he had a stroke.
\nOr a heart attack. He does smoke.
\nWhat is this world coming to?
\nObviously, not what it\u2019s supposed to do.<\/p>\n
