First Grader

The first grader came home from school one day
"Dad, do you wanna go outside and play?"
"Son, let me finish the game"
The first grader came home from school day two
"Dad, Jonathan called me stupid, it's true"
"Son, Johnny's genes are to blame"
The first grader came home from school day three
"Dad, the art teacher said my work's lovely"
"Son, give it to Mom to frame"
The first grader came home from school day four
"Dad, can I read you my written folklore?"
"Son, your work all sounds the same"
The first grader came home from school day five
"Dad, can we go to the museum archive?"
"Son, that exhibit's quite lame"
The first grader came home from school day six
"Dad, here's my lousy report card, it stinks"
"Son, public schools are a shame"
