The Lessons I Learned - Bryan Scary
-LESSON NUMBER ONE-
Three Little Boys in a wishing well
Are secretly gathering wishes to sell
While our Bobby's asleep
He dreams of his cent in the deep
"Wish I may and wish I might, wish upon a splash
Turn all the people who touch it to ash!"
-MORAL-
Don't be a thief, my little dandelion
These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned
-LESSON NUMBER TWO-
With side to side desks in an English class
Side to side students are certain to pass
But our Mrs. Leni, catches a wandering eye
In a flash, an empty desk, and smoke fills the sky
Everyone wonders how she made her pies!
-MORAL-
Don't cheat or lie, my little Avalon
These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned
All of those lonely nights mother would rock me to sleep
Smoking a cigarette, crossing her legs in the corner, dark and deep
-LESSONS NUMBER THREE-
Grandmother stands at the side of the street
Opposite Alex can't wait for a treat
But our Bicycle Fleet cuts round the corner to meet
Granny and it takes her apart in a snap
All that remains is her daffodil hat
-MORAL-
Look every way, before you cross the street
These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned
