He’d Show Them

He'd Show Them. He Would.

Pee-Wee Paulie Purd

Would eat all his words.

With foot in his mouth

Until he could ralph

For be’in a know-it-all nerd.

He felt like a fool

For be’in uncool.

If only he could

He’d strike back; he should

For “kick-me” notes all day at school.

"Some day I will rise

To be no small fry.

Take down ev’ry jerk

For pranks ‘n’ lame work,

And boss-man you all ‘til you cry."
