My name is Jimmy-Jon-Joe,
And I'm dis-not-un-cool,
But I had to leave home,
Before the start of new school...

So that night I crept out,
Into the dark,
Found the garage,
Where parents did park...
I rolled out the car,

And pick-up truck too,

Got Brother B. Bobby,
Who was dressed in light blue...

I dragged Little-Lisa,

And Big-Bobby-Joe,

Who was already so big,
We wished he never did grow!
Next came Fumeera,
Then Sad-Salley-Sue,
Who sat around crying,
Like a sobbing boo-hoo...
Then came Gee-Whizal

And Jon-Jolly-Jed,

And my little Sink-Squirrel,
With his hot water head...

My Red-Coated-Zink,
Which was Blue-Parrot hued,
And my vicious Gum-Gnasher,

Who gnashed when he chewed...
I grabbed a fruit sundae,

And a strawberry shake,
Sunday's lasagna,

Which took hours to bake...
I found my old toothbrush,

And some liquidy soap,
I grabbed an old suitcase,
And in it I poked,
Two pairs of undies with superman's face,
An old faded T-shirt I won at some race,
3 separate socks,

You may need more than 2!!
Then I stacked it on top and shouted,
"Let's go!"
And
"Ya-hoo!"
"Listen my brothers, and sisters, and beasts,
We're going to parties,
And dances,
And feasts...
Sleeping,
And eating,
And watching TV,
It's gonna be fun,
School ain't for me!"
So I started the engine,

And clutched down the clutch,
But the old motor moaned,
"I can't carry this much!!!"

I cried and I yelled to old Mister Car,
"We have to go now,
It's not very far!
We have to get going, before new school starts!"
I yelled as I pressed on the pedaling parts.
The car lurched forward with a terrible jolt,
I was thrown from my seat,
And sat up with a bolt!!!!
I saw my Mom's eyes,
And her soothing nice face,
I sighed and I yawned,
Just a dream was the case...
I gave her a smile,
She gave me a kiss,
But when I looked up again,
What happened was this...
I heard what she said,
And she looked like a ghoul,

"Jimmy-Jon-Joe,
It's time to get-up for new school." |
