Luke’s Corner

Yesterday, just before Niki’s great prarie fire behind his house, I came up with a great idea about writing a song about Mrs. Reichner’s class for my second Independant Writing Project. I have decided to entitle it “Still in Tenth Grade because of the repetive lyric “I’m Still in Tenth grade in my Mind-”

My friend Niki and I are going to be working on my first draft of the craft song which will look something like this when it is finished…

Do note that the “MIND”s will be dragged out during the chorus !) 

STILL IN TENTH GRADE   

Got me a desk in the Reichner room
And felt like I was in Vietnam
I walked into a different world
The past was forever gone 

I could have gone to Canada
Or I could have dropped out of school
But I was brought up differently
I couldn’t break the rules

Eleven months and fifteen days
The last ones were the worst
One minute I’d kneel down and pray
And the next I’d stand and curse No place to run to
Where I did not feel the stress
When I got home I stayed alone
And checked behind each door
