Miss Neilson’s Class – Episode 5: Clock Ninja

[Intro – spoken over palm-muted riff] Miss Neilson’s onto us... but not fast enough... [Verse 1] Miss Neilson walks in with a smile on her face “Hello everyone, please take your seats, find your place” “Sonia, switch with Jolisa, I can’t have you by Slimer Armando, come over here — yeah, I’m the decider!” She turns to the board and starts writin’ down the plan Chalk screamin’ on the blackboard, everybody’s clownin’ again I lean over to Slimer and whisper real low “Bro, get the clock down — push it forward, let’s go!” [Pre-Chorus] There’s a fight after school at the abandoned fire station We ain’t sittin’ here all day, we need early liberation Who’s fightin’? Damon versus Badger Oh, that’s gonna be a good one I know we can’t miss it [Chorus] Clock ninja! Stealth attack! Turn it forward, hurry, put it back! Miss Neilson’s writin’, she ain’t got a clue We’re stealin’ minutes like the trouble crew Clock ninja! Fast-forward time! Get us out before the final bell chimes! Slimer’s on a mission, movin’ like a ghost Another day in Neilson’s class, we do the most! [Verse 2] He slips into ninja mode, silent as a shadow Snatches that big clock right off the wall, no hassle I’m whisperin’ frantic, “Not too much, bro, chill! She’ll notice if it jumps too far — just a few minutes, for real!” He’s spinnin’ the hands, grinnin’ like a maniac Ten minutes ahead, perfect, that’s the trick Just as she turns from the board with that glare Clock’s back on the wall like it was never there [Chorus – bigger] Clock ninja! Stealth attack! Turn it forward, hurry, put it back! She don’t see nothin’, she just keeps on teachin’ We’re sittin’ here smilin’, already mentally leavin’ Clock ninja! Early release! Fight at the fire station — we’re gonna be there in peace! Miss Neilson’s clueless, thinkin’ time’s on her side But we just robbed ten minutes and we’re feelin’ alive! [Bridge – half-time, sneaky] Tickin’... tickin’... the clock’s runnin’ fast She’s explainin’ fractions like it’s gonna last We’re packin’ our bags before the bell even rings Slimer gives me the nod — we own this thing [Final Chorus – full shout-along] Clock ninja! Best one yet! Miss Neilson’s class — we ain’t done causing sweat! From salt in the coffee to fake bloody scabs Now we’re stealin’ time — we’re the best kids she’s ever had! Clock ninja! Ninja style! We’re runnin’ this school, mile after mile! Miss Neilson’s class — Episode Five We cheat the clock... just to survive! [Outro – chaotic and loud] She never even noticed... See you at the fire station! Let’s gooo!
