Class
Dismissed
by
Bruce Lansky
(sing to the tune of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic")
We have broken all the blackboards
so the teachers cannot write.
We have painted all the toilets black
and all the lockers white.
We have torn up all the math books
and we've locked the school's front door.
There won't be school no more.
Glory, glory hallelujah!
School is closed now, what's it to ya?
There won't be no more homework
and there won't be no more tests.
There won't be school no more.
