Get through summer, go to school
Start of year, you’re still not cool
Brand new shoes, fresh backpack smell
Be prepared, the math is hell
What’s the point of reading?
You can get straight A’s without ever opening a book
Look
What’s the point of reading?
Get ahead so you know what’s going to happen
What if it never happens?
Or maybe you pave your own way
Look
Sled through winter, back to school
End of year, still not cool
Final bell, transforming hall
Barbecues and sunshine call
this is your life chuck johnson
