Aha! School

What kind of fool
invented school.
What kind of beurocratic preacher
created the first Demonic teacher.
You really have to pitty,
the sick, pathetic Walter Mitty
that dreamed up the first Chair and stool
and told, some feeble, weak minded fool
to sit on it.
and pit
his wit
against a test
then go and amass the rest,
on the promise, 'it will make you a better
person. You will be literate
and clever
and will never
have to ask you mum,
or sit down sucking a wrinkled thumb.
It helps a person to grow old
and his intellect makes him impressively bold,
People will, one day go to school in mass,
If you don't you are an awful ass.'
So off they trod, down the school drive
dragging their sleeves through autumnal leaves,
heading towards the intellect hive;
each the king or queen of could bee's,
each a life ahead to thrive,
each a little nervous but all of them life-ly,
ready and eager to thrive.
Then the morning assembly!
someone dismember me
from my ears!
That dirty old man with the jacked up suit
has been jacking his voice for what seems like years.
Then the joking starts,
the giggles and squiggles,
the fat boys just become piggy in the middle,
the boy with the glasses needs a quick widdle,
while the head still strums his schools merry fiddle
to a bunch of people who aren't really interested in academia,
at least not yet;
because all of the kids that ever will be are just too nervous to pay
attention;
while the boisterous ones are too busy making paper spit balls,
or giving grief to the fat kid.
Then come the lessons.
At the front the teachers desk sits,
with his little bits
scattered across it.
A pencil sharpener, and case
and a little can of spraying mace,
(Just in case
anyone steps out of line.)
'Right now scum, take your seats,
We're going to make you study Yeats,
whether you like or not,
and believe me you will, and more &;#8230;
Don't try it, I have killed before.'
English literature and maths,
The gym and their Plutonic baths,
History and then comes break,
and believe me, they really do break
you. Then back into the torture cells,
Where the demons from the ages dwell,
The Gorgan teaches Freshman Trig,
While Lucifer's on Break,
The four horsemen of the
Apocalipse are on Gym,
While a pack of wolves teach the choir a hym.
Then school lunch, that you must eat,
Which is made up of rancid meat,
and soggy peas,
and hairy cheese,
and Dead fly biscuits made with fleas.
Then afternoon and Biology,
where you have to watch a video on dissection,
and see some hairy rancid mole
that came from some unholy infection.
Your lectured on things that,
to be honest,
you'll never need.
But, take heed
If you don't know them,
they feed you to the three headed wolf
that takes detention.
So, would someone please tell me which fool
Invented the hypocrisy of school?
Although he's probably realised his mistake
and made for the hills,
or jumped of some high window sill,
But for the rest of my life my single goal
is to find and kill that mangy arse hole.
