Poetry Ballad: Students

Your friends, your peers, more so known as students

Taking down each task with extreme prudence

Though sometimes for teachers they seem like pollutants

As cool as they are they can become quite a nuisance

All of the popular kids can be pretty cool

Walking down the halls disrespecting every rule

While not all are like this, some can be quite nice

Let’s just say some others lack trustful advice 

The smart ones, the cool ones, however you group it

Deep down inside we’re all the same you must admit

Students are actors, but are also able to stay true

Here at Riverside we greet you no matter what you do

Your friends, your peers, more so known as students

Taking down each task with extreme prudence

Though sometimes for teachers they seem like pollutants

As cool as they are they can become quite a nuisance

Work might be an overload for their minds

But with some hard work they’ll get through just fine

Piles forever stacking up on the table

Shot through their brains like an electric cable

Teacher shakes his head as he sees their mark

Should have put extra punctuation on this part

Here at Riverside the students don’t give in

Say they’ll make it better and then they begin

Your friends, your peers, more so known as students

Taking down each task with extreme prudence

Though sometimes for teachers they seem like pollutants

As cool as they are they can become quite a nuisance

At the end of the day, you know they’ll be there

So make sure you listen close and pull up a chair

Students can be a pain and don’t always stay true

But you can always count on them to be there for you
