Homeworkless - Nakiia Robeson

It was Monday morning and once again I was homeworkless
Mrs. Bell asks Where is your homework Jess?
Well Mrs. Bell my dog thought it was his dinner
Well of All you’re excuses I’d say that one’s a winner
Oh Jess what am I to do with you ?
How about give me an A and a whoo hoo!?
Umm I think not
You better have the homework tomorrow over what I taught
On Tuesday the same question was asked
But the excuse was better than the last
Well Mrs. Bell in the night my grandma went away
Well Jess I’d believe you if this morning I hadn’t seen her at Subway
Well I never said where she went to
I left the destination up to you
Mrs. Bell tried not to laugh out loud or lol
But I saw the laugh escape Mrs. Bell
And then she said Oh Jess what am I to do with you
I responded How about give me an A and a whoo hoo?!
On day 3
I sat thinking what my excuse would be
In all honesty
2 things that don’t go together are homework and me
Going down the homework line Mrs.Bell finally said my name
And on my brother I put the blame
He stole it and wouldn’t give it back I said
His name is Ted
He really is a pain
One time he even left me out in the rain
Mrs.Bell looked at me and then asked Oh Jess what am I to do with you?
Of course I said how about give me an A and a whoo hoo!?
Mrs.Bell just turned and walked away
I hoped a different excuse would work on Thursday
Well Thursday came
And things pretty much went the same
But on Friday the day went in a whole new way
Mrs.Bell walked by and on the desk my homework lay
She looked at me and said What a delight this is Jess
I expected you to be homeworkless
What brought this about?
Something serious I don’t doubt
Well Mrs.Bell my mom was on the phone
She was talking to my aunt Joan
She was talking about my cousin Wess
He was also always homeworkless
He is what my mom calls a bum
And in my opinion to be like him would be dumb
I figured it would be best not to disappoint my mother
Since I really do love her
Besides being a bum does not sound fun
So my homeworkless days are dom
So now can I have my A and a whoo hoo?
Mrs. Bell smiled and said I don’t know what I am going to do with you
But Mrs.Bell I’ve already told you what to do
She marked an A on my paper and gave a loud whoo hoo
Take a tip from me
A homeworkless bum isn’t what you want to be
