I need to do my absolute best
So that means no rest
If I don’t get an “A”
I’ll be stuck in the house till next May
At lunch I sit at the same table
We have the IB label.
Everyday I go to school
I don’t ever look very cool.
I carry around 50 millions books
And all I get are dirty looks.
I just want to get into Yale.
I hope that I don’t fail.
I have a life
Easy going, independent, happy life
I have freedom to choose and pick
And I don’t have to worry bout missing school when I’m sick.
Whats the fun in seeing the same people every class
Especially when most of them are a pain in my ---
School should be fun, hard work but fun
I’d rather have friends then alone with none.
Trying to be the very best
Was never an option for me missing rest
Life is too short, I can’t relive it
Four years of high school, no way IB will ruin it
So IB or not?
