    When I am sick
    I lie on the couch
    Surf the channels – click

    I don’t go in to work
    they send a sub
    Hope no on is a dork

    do the students miss me
    like the sofa enjoys
    my weight and warm tea

  2. Danno says:

    I love to come up in the morning
    shining brightly on all life
    but I have to give you a warning
    my heat is like a knife

    never stand so still
    because you have to know
    that you should go into the shade to chill
    thats just how i flow

    and at the end of the day
    I have to go back down
    I know you hate the gray
    dont worry I will come back to town

    Fire

    Fire is hot,
    Stronger than cold.
    And the colors it has caught,
    With the color of red and gold.

    It has destroyed things in its path,
    With its heat and power.
    It warms me like a sunbath,
    Its beauty like a flower.

    Guess What

    It ran through the street
    Roaring as it made its way
    It stopped and grabbed a treat
    And enjoyed the nice day
    It dropped its master at a friend’s house
    And waited patiently for him to return
    It chased a mouse
    It made a good turn

  5. mia says:

    Anger spread with hate
    The lonely girl sitting in the corner and cries
    It was because she was used as bait
    All of this happened by all these guys
    Her best friends tell her to get over it
    She doesn’t listen and goes to the boy
    We tell her u hate him just admit
    Then again all he does to her is annoy

  6. elesey says:

    Emotion
    It blinds us
    And makes us glad
    Then defies us
    And makes us sad

    I’m left alone again
    I feel so small
    So don’t you pretend
    That you loved me at all

  7. julian says:

    Nice red truck roared with all its might,
    Chasing away the Mexicans
    Girl sitting in the driver’s seat with her pants nice and tight
    Running away like a moving van

    Disappearing into thin air
    Made me fall in love with the loud truck
    About the truck it made me care
    She thought my name was chuck.

  8. Vars says:

    A man bought a hummer
    Even though he was poor
    He got it in thge summer
    with a broken door

    He spent his lifetime savings
    And with his stress
    He couldnt satisfy all his cravings
    And then he died i guess

  9. Xander says:

    I roar and sting those inside of me
    Biting at their exposed faces
    All within me try to flee
    I confuse them, obliterating all traces

    Stealing away your feeling
    Slowly you lose your breath
    You lose all thought and being
    Chilling you to death

  10. KUZ-3 says:

    The Rain

    flying down to the world
    Cold in the air
    splat on the head
    running down the cheeks

    On the ground
    laying flat not a sound
    moving down a road
    later being drank by a toad

  11. faliley says:

    Whenever Im around people screem and hide
    Whereever I go buildings shake and tremble
    I love to toss things side to side
    But all the things around me disasemble

    Buildings and cars jump up and down
    I canmake water move
    That can flood any town
    Anything on this earth I can remove

  12. Kosta says:

    Laying on the bottom of the bag
    All wet and dirty
    Wanting someone to wipe the sweat with a rag
    From the year 1930

    Captaining a boat
    Getting a lot of dough
    Tring to stay afloat
    Then I say whoa

  13. Evgeny says:

    He was rich
    He bought a Ford
    The Ford lived in a ditch
    That he couldn’t afford

    So he got a Silverado
    It was brown
    He drove it to Colorado
    To his home town

  14. Varya(: says:

    ~Rain~
    Running down your window pane
    Getting everything wet
    Litterly driving you insain
    As I come racing down like a jet.

    Leaving puddles behind
    Which brings some children joy
    I’m easy to find
    But sometimes I rain like blood from Troy

  15. Evgeny says:

    Money

    Money is bad
    That loves to run around
    It makes me mad
    I just wanna jump up and down

    Money buys everything
    Money goes here and there
    Money a diamond ring
    Money makes a millionaire

  16. katya says:

    The Rain
    The rain danced on the streets all night
    Happily jumping on street lamps and benches
    Singing happily and bright
    Sometimes falling into trenches

    Jumping around made the rain all tired
    The rain got all droopy and went to sleep
    The sun came up all inspired
    And told the rain not to weep

  17. Yakov Kuzmin says:

    Gold

    Behold, its cold
    You could use it to cure the common cold
    It is the color of the sun
    Which makes it harder than stone

    People would take hold of the world
    But it would knock them out cold
    And get them paroled
    Because it the envy of the old

  18. Alex says:

    ~New Boat~

    Finaly the new boat was ready
    I couldent wait to fish on it
    Even if it wasent a freddy`s
    I knew we could do it

    Setting the boat to the water
    Starting that new engine
    The boat was like a new daughter
    Who had lots of intention

  19. Red Dodge says:

    Faster than lightning
    roars louder than thunder
    taking away your breath
    as it goes around the world
    faster than the speeding bullet.

    Its beuty is so hot
    making yours eyes bleed
    red, just like its color
    its the red dodge.

  20. Fetina says:

    The Rain

    As the clouds come together
    Thunder become louder
    Then, a raindrop kissed my cheek
    Chills went down my spine

    As the clouds come together
    My thoughts come to you
    I hug myself to keep wam,
    Thinking it was actually you

  21. Max says:

    Whiteout
    The white truck posed,
    peoples eyes looked with jeoulasy,
    the cheep chevy owner deposed,
    to girls, the ford was the ecstasy,
    girls climbed and climbed and climbed.

    Its 28’s rolled
    so fast, people saw snow,
    wheels screeched dark gold,
    The white ford was the show,
    girls climbed and climbed and climbed.

  22. Arseny says:

    Driving 140 miles per hour
    passing every car on the highway
    the car was feeling good and hot
    as she added another 10 miles

    the car slowed down
    driving into the wedding
    Hot girls looking at my 24’s
    Guys filled with jealousy
