Fresh washed P.E. clothes The scent of fruity erasers Blue eyeliner learning it’s place A clear cool purse Jelly shoes My pink overalls are so cool My teddy bear sweatshirt keeps me trendy and warm My french braid hides my long hair Because short hair rules Oh the horror... I forgot my homework! Wearing grandmas ring Silently made fun of by the popular I miss elementary playground Silent I sit speaking to no one Maybe my one friend Headaches daily I don’t want to come here Give me a note P.E. clothes stink Mom said no more blue eyeliner Clear purse and erasers...stolen And guess what? You get to do this all over again Only bigger

I forgot my homework! Wearing grandmas ring Silently made fun of by the popular I miss elementary playground Silent I sit speaking to no one Maybe my one friend Headaches daily I don’t want to come here Give me a note P.E. clothes stink Mom said no more blue eyeliner Clear purse and erasers...stolen And guess what?

1984-1985 Trauma of transition from elementary to high school. Good thing it’s only once.
