Old man, Old man, you are my old man
Sitting there in your coumfy chair
Warm to the touch with your huge hand
There's a discolored forest in your set of gray hair

You sing in church choir,
With a voice that is bass.
Your deep boom inspires,
and puts countless smiles on my face.

High Schoolers love you
because you used to teach them
and once you got through
they still called you a friend

Old man, Old man, you are my old man.

Driving down the highway

Loving my own life

I like to do it my way

No pressure, pain, or strife

I'm cool, I'm free

No pressure on me.



Racing down the higway

Someone's lost his Life

I tried to help him my way

Now his Life is full of strife

No one's cool, No one's free

everywhere there's pressure,

but none on me.

ode to silly young men

mr man mr man
may i ask you
where you can buy a fan
a fan a fan
what a silly question
you stupid young man

what do you need a fan for
its winter
you friek
you'll freze your toes
you'll catch a cold you silly man
if you still want a fan go in there

Title:Ode to my dog
My dog is so fluffy
She licks your face
She sometimes look like a fluff ball

She looks at you with the dearest heart
so why does she snipp
she stabs you with a dart,
through your heart
she so sweet and so brown
like a choclate kiss
In the drown,
of her eyes,she is like a kess on the nose

Dom's afro sits their black and tall
If he didn't put gease on it might fall
He puts it cornrows and that is cool
But it is bad when he can"t swim in a pool
He wears a bookbag which is really weird
But now he is growing a beard
So his afro stands tall and pround
So now it is easy to pick him out in a croud

Sean Taylor is very quick & strong
with you on the redskins nothing go's wrong
When the ball is thrown near him it never gets pass
If they run to your side there face is in grass
Your hits are as powerful as a brick
Getting hit by you is like getting hit with a hit stick
when you died and went through those pearly gates
you still are the best safty on madden 08

The City

The City to most

Is beautiful

But to me it is

Depressing

They see malls

I see shop lifting

They see a life with

Oppurtunities

I see the news

They see careers

I see the family

in trouble

They see the Politician with

The Answer

I see the crook,

The weasel

The scam

They don't see it

So I'm not in "The" City

Oh Mr. Y, Oh Mr. Y,
I just love your ties,
Oh Mr.Y,
you are so kind to me,

so full of jolly and glee,
and to us you are the best that there can be,
even though you yell, sometimes

i still think your the best,
better than all the rest,
Oh Mr.Y, Oh Mr.Y

If we get referales
This will remind you
that we shine like pearls
Oh Mr.Y, Oh Mr.Y

I'm off the bus and i'm in my house
when i turn around i see an itsy bitty
i walk toward her, silent as a mouse
i pick her up and see she is my kitty
she's small and sweet and also frisky
but when your hands are 'round her, it can be a little risky.
but i will love her and watch her play
but i will adore her when she sleeps all day.

Daddy,daddy your so sweet
Daddy,daddy listen to the beat
Daddy,daddy can we go,
Daddy,daddy over to the show

Daddy,daddy put on your skates
Daddy,daddy people do hate
Daddy,daddy you skate like a king
Daddy,daddy I'm your queen

I look up to cause your the best
because of you i'm not just a mess
I keep in line all the time
i'm like a dime I always shine.

Busy Dog, Busy Dog, do you ever
calm down
Just keep running and running never stop
You move so quick but we never here a sound
You jump so high it is like a bunny hop

You bark all day
You always know what to do
When you bark we don't know wat you say
You always find the hidden clue

You never sleep
Just play around
When you sleep you are like a sheep
Please when will you calm down


But you are still my Busy Dog

title: sweatshirt
by: Justin Philipp

i like my sweatshirt because it keeps me warm and stuff.

and it's warm and soft.

it's got arm holes, a hood, and it zips up and stuff.

you can fill the hood up with water like a big cup and stuff.

it's made by south pole and stuff.

i paid 65 dallors just for the hood to zip up.

it's all-over print so you cant see the lint.

it's got two pockets just to put stuff in.

the hood's so big.

you wear it on your head.

it's so soft it makes you want to wear it to bed.

thats my sweatshirt and heres the end.

ODE TO THE BEACH



The sounds of the sea
And the wind in the trees
Its a beautiful sight
With that warm summer breeze

The crystles in the sand
The crabs on the beach
When the waves hit land
You hear the sea gulls screach


With the sounds in the ocean
And the sights to see
You know theres no commotion
At this beautiful sunset sea

i sing really great
i'm not just bait
i may become rich
but that's not going to make me a witch

i can dance
just don't prance
open up
here i come to strut

i dance, i sing
i have angel wings
i will soar
through open doors

when i'm older
wait where's the bolder
i sit up stairs, waiting there
i really do care

my face gets wrinkled
my nose will krinkle
i will die
but please don't cry

here's my story
i died with all my pride and glory
here's my cd
you'll see my stiry on tv.

on my own
my soul free
at last
my hair blowing with the winds flow
i follow my path wondering
always wondering
what may become
of my free soul
cause im on my own
