Twenty Four chairs and tables not clean Busting up at sunrise just to make that green. Twenty years been working, they call it a job, For some a thrill, for others all they do is sob. Trying to teach the next generation everything there is, Trying to make a difference, World up in a tizz Stop and think there is only so much you can do, Take my advice and listen up quick, Get that diploma, get out of here and pack up all your shit. Ive had it up to here, No lies, Been dreaming about the summer months and the days go by. Thinking about that day, them kids go walking by. Thirty seven weeks, oh so long, Need that clock to be faster, oh my god I been thinking, wondering, asking how can it go by so slow, Waiting for that end of day bell, then I can get into my flow. Coffee mug in hand, my eyes half closed, Another staff meeting… nobody really knows. Someone says “collaborate,” someone says “test,” Everybody nods like they know what’s best. Ive had it up to here, No lies, Been dreaming about the summer months and the days go by. Thinking about that day, them kids go walking by. Monday comes around, then Tuesday takes its place, Wednesday feels like Friday, heads all flustered like a race. Thursday starts to drag, Friday's almost here, Then somebody says, before you leave, damnit not in the clear. Twenty four chairs, twenty four desks, Twenty four questions, twenty four requests. Twenty four reasons why I'm losing my mind, But somehow every morning I'm still right on time. Ive had it up to here, No lies, Been dreaming about the summer months and the days go by. Thinking about that day, them kids go walking by. Ive had it up to here, No lies, Been dreaming about the summer months and the days go by. Thinking about that day, them kids go walking by.
