Where Were You?

Location

Where were you last week?

The teachers always ask

I took the week off

Yeah I wish I could say that

 

You forgot and essay in class

When will you make it up?

Sorry I’m too busy

Trying to make the school blow up

 

You were supposed to bake potatoes

Why did you make a cake?

It’s really a beautiful story

I was burning a witch at the stake

 

You left without a word

Why not say that you’d be gone?

That is way too much work

When I wished your class was never on

 

You could have at least tried

Why are you acting this way?

Dude, haven’t you heard,

That my family was murdered yesterday?

 

Is that really the truth?

When you have lied so much before?

You can believe what you want

No one really cares anymore

 

I am sorry that I doubt you

Why don’t you seem very sad?

How about I just tell you

That I am really someone extremely bad
