I Haven't Done My Homework!

I haven't done my homework Dad!

(Dad) Well my boy that's very bad!

But Dad my homework book got eaten!

(Dad) Don't lie to me or you'll get a beat'n!

But Dad it's true my book has gone!

(Dad) Now my son you're very wrong!
I saw it on the kitchen table
I do not like your silly fables

But Dad the Dog has eaten it
I saw him eat it, every bit!

(Dad) OK my son I've had it now!
It's homework time, dont want a row!
Ask your mum where it could be
I want it done before your tea!

(Mum) Oh my son you'll never guess
I put it on the floor
and the dog has eaten it
and your homework book's no more!
