Finish Your Homework

Pencils and paper scattered all around Math problems and spelling making me frown Mom stands firm with a knowing gaze "Finish your homework or no going out today" I don't like it but Mom says do it anyway Finish your homework or you don't get to play Books and worksheets they're not much fun But I gotta finish before they pile up a ton Friends calling my name outside in the sun I'd rather be with them having some fun Mom's voice is clear no room for sway "Finish your homework or no going out today" I don't like it but Mom says do it anyway Finish your homework or you don't get to play Books and worksheets they're not much fun But I gotta finish before they pile up a ton I dream of games and riding my bike But here I sit with all these dislikes Mom says with love "It's good for you" I sigh and write what else can I do? I solve the problems every last one Mom gives a smile says "Now you're done!" Outside I run ready to play Homework's done it's playtime hooray I don't like it but Mom says do it anyway Finish your homework or you don't get to play Books and worksheets they're not much fun But I gotta finish before they pile up a ton So if you're stuck with homework at the table Remember this song and you'll be able Finish your homework and then you'll see Fun and games outside as it should be
