Afraid – to grade
Wouldn’t it be fun?
Cross, self loss
Wouldn’t it be fun?
Wet your bed
Wouldn’t it be fun?
Some fear none
Wouldn’t it be fun?

Your eyes …
Teacher said,
Your eyes …
Teacher said,
Your eyes …
Teacher said,
Preacher said

“Don’t have nothing for you”

Spell the smell
Wouldn’t it be fun?
Search for church
Wouldn’t it be fun?
Wet your bed
Wouldn’t it be fun?
Cold in coals
Wouldn’t it be fun?

Your eyes …
Teacher said,
Your eyes …
Teacher said,
Your eyes …
Preacher said

“Don’t have nothing for you”

“Don’t have nothing for you”
