Not A Kid Anymore
I’m not a kid anymore
My school no longer has a playground
That has a slide as long as the hallway to the door
I’m not a kid anymore
I’m not allowed to take naps
My classes are almost an hour long
PLEASE, send me back!
I’m not a kid anymore
I have to buy my own stuff
What if I want to go to a party
I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE BUS?!
I’m not a kid anymore
This kind of makes me frown
But at least I’m a little closer to making my mama proud
I’m not a kid anymore
