I never thought it was cool,
That for 180 days I had to attend school,
So after graduation I got a job,
How little my paycheck was made me sob,
So I decided to be all I can be,
By joining the U.S. Army,
A baby dying left me in tears,
So I left the Army after 12 years,
Right after I got home my mom and grandma died.
This left me fit to be tied,
While I felt I'd hit the skids,
I decided to work with kids,
So I went on the Magical Mystery Tour,
I really had to make sure,
That I genuinely wanted to be a history teacher,
And work with those creatures
Funny how life has gone around,
Because I had to teach year round,
I think in many ways,
I was better off with 180 days
