OUT WITH THE FAIRIES

I should be out now
In the warmth of the sun.
Playing with Fairies,
We would have such fun.

What's that I hear?
Two and two make four!
I really don't care
School can be such a bore.

Oh! this classroom seat
So hard on my bum.
(Can I say that?)
Please don't tell my mum.

Still the Fairies will wait
Till the day ends
With the ringing of the bell
Then it's off with my friends.
