If you don't put your coat on before I count to ten

Dear Mr Examiner

I will say thank you for setting these questions,

Though really they don't make sense,

I have read them through twice

But I still don't no any answers

I've written my name at the top

And I've put the date on too

But after doing that

I had nothing further to do

So I thought to make up the time

I would write you a letter informally

About what I can see here

And what it's like to be me

Suzy has written twelve pages

But its probably just a guff

And Abbey Cooke Is copying

The answers off her cuff.

Miss Smith is checking are maths

The clock keeps ticking away

I suppose for anyone outside

It's just another lovely day

There'll be Fathers at work

And Grandmas sipping tea

Mothers going on errands

And grandpas watching tv

The wind is now a lot calmer

And the sun has started to shine

Outside the big school window

A housewife hangs pants on the line

Some joggers coming running past

The church clock has just pealed.

A mower chugs backwards and forwards

Up on the football field

Miss Smiths just read what I've written

Her face is an absolute mask

Before she collects my paper in

I've got a little favour to ask

I thought your questions were interesting

I've only myself to blame

But please couldn't you just give me some marks

For writing the date and my name?
