Homework – the last time I saw ……..
I'M EDUCATED.
By Wendy Williams.
There's something you need to know,
I won't be at school anymore,
I've learnt how to read and write now,
And you've taught me a whole lot more.
I've found that Egypt is inhibited by mummies,
And Joan of Arc was Noahs' wife,
The Jews and the Genitals were enemies,
Hitler was called Heil for most of his life.
I can name 5 animals that live in the Arctic,
4 Polar Bears, and a Seal,
An octopus has 8 testicles,
He uses them to feel.
Malayan people come from Malaria,
The Vacant Tin is where the Popes pray,
Having one wife's called Monotony,
And lambs gamble in fields every day.
See, I told you I'm now educated,
I think you've seen what I've got,
I'm going to circumcise the world now,
In my little 12ft pink yacht.
