Cupcakes For Jesus

So many Herberts with which to contend [Grayman]

So many students you have to suspend [Dassn't Say]

From the ceiling to teach them a lesson - [fester]

(Laying tarpaulin to catch all the mess on) [Beefy]

It's the only way that they'll ever learn [fester]

The lessons of life that their teachers all spurn [Roland]

So many Herberts to tie to a hook [fester]

So many students to hook to a book [Dassn't Say]

From the libr'y to keep them all learning [Beefy]

With books that they'd rather be burning [snood]

It's the only way that you'll ever cope [Beefy]

Unless you pickle your brain with dope [Dassn't Say]

So many Herberts and so little sense [fester]

So many poets to make recompense [Kansas Sam]

By writing with style and beauty and wit [fester]

And heuristic profundity, all that shit [Dassn't Say]

It's the only way that we'll ever rise [Beefy]

To a level of versing that won't attract flies [Kansas Sam]
