Oh, today’s the day  

I am finally on my own

No Mom! No Dad!  Neither!

I am finally grown

I got my pencils and all my

Stuff

If I forget something, well,

That’s just tough

My Spiderman t shirt is

Just so cool

I wonder if they serve

Ice cream at school?

Tie your laces in a

Double knot

Brush your teeth so

Your teeth don’t rot

Remember not to eat

The paste

Even if you like the taste

Don’t push, don’t shove,

Just be polite

On the first day you don’t want

To fight

I am the new kid

Hey I’m six

Be nice to me

Not any tricks

The big yellow bus

Opened its door

Oh, no, now I am

Not sure

Todays the day I am

Finally on my own

Nope, not ready

I think I’ll stay home.
