Daddy's Trophy

by Ms. TKay - Cancer

Go to school
   Don't miss a day
 I expect nothing but
   good grades from 
you, girl!!!
You have to make up
  for the bullshit
I was into when I 
  was your age
There's no such word
  as "can't"
 There's no excuse for
failing!!
If you are still breathing
  find a way
 to get it done
What did your friend
  get on her report card?
She got A's and B's?
Why do you have a C?
  Why can't you be like
 Suzie down the street?
Well stay in the house
  until you can do better
What's that pink slip?
There's a chance you 
   won't graduate?
Don't talk to me
  until you get 
    off that list!
What will I tell my
  the people at work?
Who's gonna save me
  from the shit
 I've gotten myself
   into?
Win!  Don't embarrass me!
  You're smarter than 
 Suzie
That's daddy's girl
  Make your daddy proud
Pull those grades up
 I have a future to plan
  And people to tell
 about it!!
