There are a million, billion reasons 
    Why their homework’s not been done,
But, listed here are some of them
     And I think you’ll find them fun:

​

'My baby brother tore it up
     And ate it for his tea.'
'Our puppy came and sniffed at it,
      Then used it for a wee.'

 

'I left it in the house somewhere,
    But where, I had forgotten.
Dad, thinking it was toilet paper,
     Used it on his bottom.'

​

'It got mixed with the washing, 
    Then went through the machine,
But look!  We saved the paper 
     And it came out really clean!'

​

'I prefer to do my homework  
     In the cemetery at night - b u t 
A ghost came up and scared me
    And I dropped it in my fright.'

​

'My psychiatrist told me yesterday
    That it’s not good for the brain,
So I quickly tore my homework up
    And chucked it down the drain.'

​

The reasons why it’s not been done 
     Can really be absurd.
Now teacher where’s your thinking cap?
    Get ready with your words!
