Celebrity Thought du Jour: Jack Prelutzky

'Homework, Oh Homework' by Jack Prelutzky

Homework, oh homework...
I hate you! You stink!
I wish I could wash you away in a sink!
If only a bomb would explode you to bits!
Homework, oh homework, you're giving me fits!

I'd rather take baths with a man-eating shark
Or wrestle a lion alone in the dark.
Eat spinach and liver, pet ten porcupines
Than tackle the homework my teacher assigns.

Homework, oh homework...
You're last on my list!
I simply can't see why you even exist!
If you'd just disappear, it would tickle me pink!
Homework, oh homework...
I hate you! You stink!
