Question

MRS STEIN I’m so happy – my teacher’s sick! And , boy I’m feeling fine… When someone kicks the sour right in And there stands FRANKENSTEIN She’s six foot eight her dress is black She’s wearing combat boots I Start to gasp she growls and says I‘ll be your substitute The teacher s pet is whimpering She doesn’t stand a chance The smart kid states and points and faints The bully wets his paints My name is Mrs. stein she says And every student cringes She leans the door against the wall She’s knocked it off its hinges Now let’s begin you there stand up She looks me I the eye I try to move my legs won’t work I know I’m going to die Now get up to the board she says I’d like to see some action Pick up the chalk; explain to us division of a fraction I think and think….and croak Invert and multiply my turn is through She points at each and pokes us out Now you now you now you We all get nailed this awful dayThere’s nowhere we can hide The lunch bell rings we cannot eat We simply crawl outside Our world is not the same without our teacher So listen to her and pray her health be fine Or one day soon you’ll hear the words My name is MRS STEIN
