Optimism, First Grade Prepper Edition

I know that world war 3 is coming

And it’ll be really bad

But when you remember what comes next

It takes away the sad

‘Cause world war 4 is going to be fought

With sticks and stones they say

Which means puppies will be soldiers

And puppies make us yay!

Sweet Child O’ Mine

If given a choice

Between water and wine

Instead ask for orange juice

And you’ll get on fine.

If given a choice

Between fire and ice

Just say “I’ll have lightning

“‘Cause that would be nice.”

If given a choice

Between evil and good

Do what you want

If you want what you should

For picking a choice

Between one or another

Is much too convenient

For me and your mother.

Road Trip With The Toddler

I am a goose

I like to honk

I am a goose

I like to honk

I am a goose

I like to honk honk honk

I am a mom

I want to die

My Inner Child Is Sitting Down, But All The Other Inner Children Are Standing Up And Moving

Sammeeches are yummiyums

And cheekens good in bellies

And I like grapes and appleswoss

And chocolate-caramellies.

I can eat twenty tootsie rollups

And an asparagoos stawck as well.

I’m a master of munching and yummiyums

But not twalking or nowing how to spell.

The Gen Alpha Song

I was born too late for a peaceful life,

Born to a woman who was not a wife,

Raised by a screen and a TikTok star

With no life skills but a brand new car.

My first day of school was in my bedroom.

I made new friends with the help of Zoom.

My kindergarten cred was instantly blown

‘Cause I’m five years old but using last year’s phone.

I can’t read yet and that won’t change soon

‘Cause Alexa can read me Good Night Moon,

My browser can do homework for me

Thanks to indifferent teachers and a GPT.

By 2050 we’ll be on the presidential stage

Campaigning for a million dollar minimum wage

So better get some rizz unless you’ve got gyat

‘Cause here we come world, ready or not.

And With That, The Silence Ended

Tomorrow is Christmas eve

And today’s the 16th day of Chanukah.

I am six years old today

And you bought me a harmonica!

The Consequences Of Bad Parenting

Where once there was a monument

There’s now some mossy rubble.

The world was once a peaceful place

But now’s awash with trouble.

The air is filled with fire

And the sky is full of ash

Because your six-year-old ignored you

When you said “Don’t do anything rash.”

Tucker’s One Regret

When I was in Kindergarten

We all sang a song

That was very fun

But not very long

That went “Hannah Hannah Bo Banna

“Banana fana fo fana

Me my mo mannah

Hannah.”

We sang it over and over

Until whenever the time came

That everyone but me had been called

But they never did my name…

Father’s Day

Happy day to all the dads

Who once were childless as lads

And then got up to laddish things

‘Til onto Earth a baby springs.

Then they spend their waking hours

Changing diapers, buying flowers,

Playing dolls or playing truck

Depending on genetic luck.

As they age, the hair up here

Says “Nope, now I’ll grow out your ear.”

He buys cars for his offspring who

Repay him with a new tie. Whoo!

These things and more, both good and bad

Are part of what makes man a dad

But it is love, not merely fate,

That makes a dad we celebrate.

First Graders Be Like…

Some like it hot.

Some like it cold.

Some people just learned how to change the font color.

And also make text bold.
