Back-benchers are evil
They never do anything right
They are a disgrace to the whole school
They always get into fights
Back-benchers are unruly
They are the devil's spawn
A lot of people say these things
I wouldn't agree upon
Back-benchers are prime targets
For teachers pelting chalk
They are labelled future criminals
Just because they talk?
Front-benchers cause havoc
Teachers say, 'Forget & forgive',
Back-benchers put a toenail out of line
And the teachers won't let them live
They get suspended for pelting teachers
And students with Styrofoam
Paper planes are their vehicles
The Principal's office is like their second home
Back-benchers will continue fighting for their rights
Until the truth is unfurled
I'm proud to be a back-bencher
Back-benchers rule the world!
