Bullying

Submitted by beef on January 24, 2008 - 17:58.

Bullying happens everywhere
It isn’t very fair
Why do people do it
Just for sheer whit

The people getting bullied don’t find it funny
They hate it when you run away with their lunch money
Why do they deserve that
They hate it when you call them fat

Just because some don’t act the same
They shouldn’t be the one to blame
Why do people act that way
When all the kid wanted to do was come and play

How could people treat others so badly
Why make them storm off madly
No one wants to see someone getting harassed
But somehow others find it a blast

Bullying is no good
I don’t think anyone should
Leave the poor kid alone
Stop the bullying that is so rottenly shown
