THE KOOL KIDS
By Elgin Bolling

...THE KOOL KIDS

The look at me, not at YOU kids,

THE KOOL KIDS

The RULE kids
The kids, the teacher thinks
Never Fibs, Never responsible for what he did..

THE KOOL KIDS

The Me Hit YOU kids.

The Spit on your Shoes, Kids
The Push you down the Stairs,
Pull out your Chair,
Make fun of the clothes you wear kids.

THE KOOL KIDS

The ones who make you look like a FOOL kids
The kids who always get the girl
Who laugh at you when you start to hurl
Who pretend to be your friend
Only to embarrasses you in the end
The kids who take your money for lunch
Who in your face, they like to punch

THE KOOL KIDS

The Kids who got
SHOT
Because the poor Nerd
Cant take a LOT
He KNOWS it aint right to HATE
But can’t eat another lousy Morsel

THE KOOL KIDS

Have put on his plate.

Now it’s too late…

The Nerd whose done
Nothing but Heard
His good name
DEFAMED
Who’s taken the
Blame
So

THE KOOL KIDS

Can have FAME.
All he wants to be is the SAME
To have a friend who won’t
Send him away
Who say’s I’m GLAD you CAME!
C’mon! Let’s Play!
Join the game!
But there’s pain in

Isolation.

THE KOOL KIDS

Done his work of mental and emotional devestation
So without hesitation
Things go terribly terribly wrong

RATTTA TAT TAT!!

Goes the semi automatics song that does not cease…

THE KOOL KIDS

Recoil in horror,
To the NERD
It’s just sweet release..

Finally, NOW the angry,
Taunting voices will cease…
Now, finally he’s the center of attention.
And no one in the playground even dares to mention…

His crew cut
His protruding butt
His high-water pants
His bowlegged stance
His coke bottle glasses
The gas he always passes
His hair that’s never neat
His braces, and bucked teeth
His clubbed feet
The way he weeps…

They all fall in a heap
Now silent and bleeding at his feet.

There’s a lesson in this, so do not sleep.

Next time you see a kid being
Picked on
Don’t just sit on
Your Butt
And Ignore
DO MORE
To raise his self esteem
Protect him from
THE KOOL KIDS
Who are mean

Do this and we will hopefully see
Less kids in a coffin
If you do nothing
This will happen more often…

Funny how this brings to mind
A little town called
Calinbine…
