Schools out for summer!
Well, School’s out for summer! School’s out forever! (sort of- it’s complicated.). No class, no principals, no rhyming? Wait, what? Good timing! Alice Cooper’s Schools Out song is iconic. An end of the year anthem. Fitting. It reminds me of how much we really hate school. Teachers blast it from classrooms (or sound systems-wink) as a battle cry. “AAAHHHH!” Like we are Braveheart- “FREEDOM!.” Painted faces replaced with pallid complexion. (complexion is spelled with an x?) but the sentiment is similar. Relief that the battle is over, for a spell.
“School's out for summer (what’s summer? I’m re-tired.)
School's out forever (Sort of- it’s complicated)
School's been blown to pieces (metaphorically, and I hope so!)
No more pencils (or chrome books)
No more books (or standardized hooks)
No more teacher's dirty looks (because- it’s complicated)
Well, we got no class (is that a play on words Alice?)
And we got no principals (or principles)
We ain't got no innocence (a given)
We can't even think of a word that rhymes” (Really Alice? well if you can write, and not rhyme, so can I! No wonder you didn’t like school, english classes were probably not kind- but kind of ironic- they play yr music…. word. (~for JT)
I.School- Summer School. I’m going to post as many blogs as I can as to prepare for the fall “classes” See you August 10th.
